Macmillan Coffee Morning

Lower III hosted a Macmillan Coffee Morning to raise funds for the charity. Pupils across the school donated cakes and biscuits, some baking their own, also, Mrs Hussain in the Office, baked a delicious Macmillan carrot cake (it went really quickly!) Parents were invited for a cup of tea or coffee and a slice of cake for a donation. Lower III were exemplary hosts, serving the cakes, taking donations and washing up! Thank you to all those parents who came and pupils who donated. Lower III managed to sell all the left over cakes and treats at the end of the school day and managed to raise £347.62 .

Black Country Finals Netball Tournament

A group of children from year 5 and 6 went to Wolverhampton university Walsall campus, to participate in the Black Country Finals Netball Tournament. It was a lovely warm day with plenty of sports, fun and teamwork. Although the results didn’t go our way, everyone in the team tried their hardest and it was a day to never forget.

Lower III Residential Oakerwood

Lower III had a great residential week at Oakerwood Leisure. They spent the week climbing over low ropes, dangling from the zipwire and working in teams to navigate around the woods and obstacle courses. The weather was glorious and lots of fun was had around the campfire with toasted marshmallows and hot chocolate. We started the week with a game of capture the flag and ended the week with a game of junior paintball. Lower III showed exemplary behaviour and all of the camp leaders spoke highly of the children and the school. They even learnt how to wash and dry up after meals and worked well as a team in a variety of challenges! See the review by Tia below.

Young Shakespeare Company ‘Hamlet’

Upper School enjoyed a performance of Hamlet by the Young Shakespeare Company. Pupils were whisked away to Denmark and were part of the cast, providing sound effects and even playing some of the parts! ‘To be or not to be’ was the question!
