• Well Done to Gold Class

  Fri 17 May 2024

  Our wonderful Gold Class children completed their statutory Key Stage 2 assessments this week. We were all so proud of the efforts they put in and they conducted themselves during the week. It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone given what a great group they are. They’ve worked their socks off for as long as I’ve known them and they’re always up for a challenge.

   

  Thanks should also go to Mrs Ashton-Smith who led them through the process brilliantly and ran the breakfast club for them throughout the week.

• Visiting Butser Farm

  Fri 10 May 2024

  On Thursday, Green Class went back in time to the Anglo-Saxon era when they visited Butser Ancient Farm.  They showed off their historical knowledge about why the Anglo-Saxons came to Britain in the first place, and found out what life would have been like between the years 410 and 1066.  Our Grayshott historians used raw materials to build fences and walls, they had a go at marching like an Anglo-Saxon army and tried their hands at jewellery making.  The class displayed excellent reasoning skills when discussing the artefacts they discovered during a mock archaeological dig.  Thank you to our parent helpers and to the PTA for their contribution towards the funding of the trip

• Assembly time

  Fri 03 May 2024

  I had the chance to attend the Grayshott Parish Council Assembly last Friday night. This is an annual event and a great chance to see what is going on in the running of the village. It was great to hear about plans to develop the skate park at the recreation ground which should make it more exciting and inviting for our children. It was also lovely to hear from Hilary Loder about her team’s work relaunching ‘The Base’ at St. Luke’s Church which I know is popular with our pupils on a Friday night.

   

  The event was also a chance for me to share some of the projects we have coming up at school, such as our Community Art project on the 5^th July. You’ll be hearing more about that next month. The involvement of the village community is so beneficial to what we do here in school.

   

  An example of this is the £600 we have just received from the Grayshott Arts Society which is enabling us, this term, to provide textile workshops from Vanessa Rolf, fellow of the Royal College of Art.
