Careers Carousel, by Miss Ellis
Date: 7th Jul 2016 @ 3:41pm
After working alongside The St Helens' Chamber of Commence all year on a variety of different projects, Year Six ended their primary experience today by participating in a careers workshop. Twenty-three local business' gave up their time and expertise to come to school and talk to all the year six pupils about their workplaces, how they have achieved success and aiming high to achieve aspirations. All of the pupils really enjoyed the morning and many of our visitors commented on the children's manners, attitude and engagement. They were a credit to our school. Hopefully some children will find that a seed of an idea has been planted about their future vocation... maybe some will come back in the future to talk about their work. 😃👍🏻

Lockerbie Manor Year 6 Residential, by Mr Warner
Date: 29th Jun 2016 @ 9:40pm
After a relatively short journey up here, torrential rain greeted us. But by mid afternoon the sun threatened to make an appearance and the evening activities were actually completed with partially blue skies and some sunshine. An wide range of choices for the evening meal, with steak pie appearing to be the most popular choice. Two activities completed for all three groups with the obstacle course proving to be by far the dirtiest! Sorry parents! 😀
It will be an early night tonight (the teachers hope), but with four activities lined up for tomorrow and an early start, we hope the children will be wanting their beds relatively early.
More pictures to follow once they all all uploaded onto one device.
P.S The children really like the pods.

Whittle Cup , by Mr Warner

Some of our Year 5 and 4 pupils took part in the Whittle Cup Tournament yesterday. They were up against teams of Year 6 pupils from other schools. But they showed great determination throughout and managed to even win one of their games. In two of the other games they were only beaten by last minute tries.
Well done to all the boys and girls who represented the school well. We are looking forward to next years event already.
Books for Tanzania, by Mrs Taylor
Date: 21st Jun 2016 @ 4:19pm
This year we have been raising money to help ACE charity to build new classrooms for the children they help in Tanzania. Linking in with our book project we thought it would be helpful to also send books for their library. Children in y1 and y5 discussed the books they thought the children would enjoy. We will pass their choices on to Sue and Ron Hayes for when they next visit.

The weather behaved itself for the morning and we were able to run a fantastic Sports Day this year. Big thanks to Miss Hughes who spent a lot of time and effort in organising and redesigning the format of the event.

As a part of our very busy Sports Week the children gathered in the hall to cheer in England in the Football European Championships. We accomodated our Welsh children by setting up a VIP area for them. National anthems were very proudly sang during the big game build up and it was a lovely atmosphere as we all cheered on the teams.
Eco Club, by Mrs Atherton
Date: 19th Jun 2016 @ 3:13pm
The children made bird boxes and bird feeders in Eco Club. They had to screw the bird boxes together showing great team work ensuring every child had a go. Then they had to paint the boxes and finally, they made bird feeders. Thank Mr Ward, they loved this activity. They then sold the boxes at the Summer Fair.
Well done.

Talented language learners , by Mrs Platt
Date: 18th Jun 2016 @ 9:49am
Mrs Taylor has been working with a group of our junior children every Friday to do additional French sessions. They have been working on their conversational skills and have also produced a magazine all written in French. Copies have been placed in our main entrance area for you to have a read - I'm sure like me, you will be impressed.
