Read below to find out more about some of the different activities we have been getting up to; from sporting and musical activities, to visitors and 'wow' days. We are looking forward to helping our children 'explore and grow' further in 2023-24.

• Children with Initiative!

  Sat 14 Oct 2017 M Davis

  It is lovely when the children show initiative!

   

  I received a very polite, typed letter from 'the class 2 and 3 football boys' asking if they could have some new goal posts. The old ones, whilst still standing, are becoming a little rickety and are very much on their last legs. Not only was the request polite, but they had also thought through the way to Mrs Davis' heart and there were plenty of reasons why new goal posts would be of benefit to the whole school, including that the older children would be able to use new goals to help teach the younger ones how to play football. Not only that but they will be able to develop some of our school values by showing each other respect and helping each other.

   

  With such a persuasive letter, I could not refuse! The children were given a reply, a budget, a catalogue and an order form. With a little support from Miss Lynch they selected their chosen posts, and we are awaiting their arrival; hopefully in time for the FOEGS Taskforce to put them together. 

  

• Year 3/4 Multisports

  Thu 12 Oct 2017 M Davis
  Today our year 3/4 children went to take part in the Rutland Multisports festival in Uppingham. The children were a credit to themselves, the school and their parents, all trying their best and working well as a team. Mrs Ranson and Mrs Wardle were very impressed!

  

• County Cross Country

  Fri 06 Oct 2017 M Davis

  Well done to all of our children who took part in the County Cross Country at Sykes Lane. We were very proud to have 58% of our Key Stage 2 taking part. What a fantastic statistic!

   

  Every child tried their best, pacing themselves well, and persevering right to the end. You all crossed the finish lines running and with your heads held high. Well done.

   

  A particular well done to Declan, for coming first in the Year 3 Boys race.
