What a brilliant week it has been in school, having finally got to use the temporary pool that has caused such excitement among the children (and some of the staff who have been in too)! It really has been wonderful hearing the children talk about how much they have enjoyed having the pool in the school and it has been great to see the faces of everyone as they have come out and the confidence that they are all clearly gaining. As you can see below, I have taken a couple of pictures to show you all what it actually looks like inside and how our sports hall has been turned into a makeshift changing room thanks to the efforts of Mrs Robinson and Mr Mills.

As well as the pool, this week we also had our Year 5 children taking part in the Bikeability programme which also ensured plenty of excitement from the children in that class. Well done to all of those who took part -the instructors were very impressed!

Next week, on Thursday, we have the fun and festivities of the 80th anniversary of VE day to look forward to. The children will take part in a range of activities, as well as an immersive celebratory picnic, and this will give an opportunity for the children to learn about the momentous day of celebrations marking the end of World War 2 in Europe.

As we come to this extended weekend, I hope you all have a lovely time -especially if the sun continues to shine as it has done all week.
