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 2025-26.

• Year 4 Residential

  Wed 22 Apr 2026 M Davis

  Year 4 have had a fantastic start to Term 5 with their residential to Hilltop. Working alongside other schools from RLT, they enjoyed many different activities and were able to make new friends from across the Rutland Learning Trust.  Accompanied by Mrs Redshaw, they had the opportunity to take part in lots of different activities, including archery, a tree top trail, mountain biking, crate stacking and the big zipper.

  Mrs Redshaw was very proud of all the children in their resilience and the ways in which they stepped out of their comfort zone and gave things a go. Not only that, but behaviour was amazing and they even slept well!

   

  Residentials are a great way of encouraging independence and introducing children to activities that they may not otherwise experience. A huge thank you to the schools in the trust who led the organisation of the trip, and to Mrs Redshaw for accompanying the children.

• Easter in a Day

  Wed 01 Apr 2026 M Davis

  We had an 'egg-cellent' time at our traditional Easter in a Day!

   

  We began by visiting Greetham Church, where Cobalt class led us through the story of Easter Week, interspersed with lusty singing from the school. Through this we were able to share the true story of Easter with friends and families.

   

  We then returned to school for our Easter lunch, and egg-related fun. FOEGS carried out an Easter raffle with lots of amazing prizes.

   

  The afternoon began with our traditional egg-rolling, followed by an egg hunt and egg and spoon races in the school grounds.
