• Key Stage 2 SATs are FINISHED!

  Thu 12 May 2022 Mr Hinksman

  HUGE well done to all our Year 6 children who have been absolutely BRILLIANT all week and given their all in their Key Stage 2 SATs. We are so proud of you all and couldn't have asked for any more from you.

  

• Helping our Community

  Tue 26 Apr 2022 Maria Ellel

  Two of our wonderful pupils, Charlotte (Y4) and Amelia (Y1) and their mummy teamed up with 'Get Creative', to clear an unloved section of Gannow from litter recently.  In the near future, this space is to become home to some beautiful local artwork and Amelia and Charlotte have helped this to happen.  What dedication and fantastic Gospel Values you have shown girls - well done!

  

• Cross Country Champions!

  Wed 16 Mar 2022 Mr Hinksman

  A massive well done to our Year 6 cross country runners. We are so proud of how they performed but also how well they represented our school. Each of them gave 100% and never gave up even when it got very hard (and wet and cold!!). It's with great pleasure that we can announce that the boys' team came out as overall champions! Seven of our runners have also qualified for the East Lancashire Finals in June so look out for an update on how we get on. Well done again to everyone who took part.

  

• World Book Day Fun!

  Mon 14 Mar 2022 Maria Ellel

  World Book Day was Wow! with colourful and creative outfits, keeping everyone guessing as to what the 'word' of each costume was.  Lots of fun had by all on a theme surrounding vocabulary. 

   

  The children enjoyed a full day of activities exploring new texts and stories and had a go at becoming storywriters themselves.  

  

• Gardening Club Success!

  Wed 09 Mar 2022 Maria Ellel

  A number of children and their dedicated parents are proving to be a great success in making our school grounds beautiful through their super gardening skills.  This week we planted up some of our plant pots that were looking a little neglected.  They now look beautiful and colourful in readiness for Spring. Well done everyone!

   

  We have great plans for the future of gardening club and if you are interested in joining us with your child, please contact the school office for further information.

• Faith Friends' Day!

  Wed 09 Feb 2022 Maria Ellel

  We were extremely fortunate to be able to welcome Amy, a Jewish Leader into our school for the day.  We learnt lots of exciting information about Judaism and Amy shared with us how her religion helps her in her day to day activities. 

   

  We also had the opportunity to say the Lord's Prayer in Arabic! Did you know that many religions use the word 'Amen' at the end of prayers to show that they 'agree' with what has been said to God?

   

  It was a fascinating day.
