Keeping Our Smiles Healthy!
This week, the Apple children enjoyed a visit to Old MacDonald’s Farm! They got creative by making handprint sheep and decorating pig-shaped biscuits. Throughout the week, they’ve taken part in lots of farm-themed activities that encouraged imaginative play and exploration.
Some of our Year 5 pupils recently took part in a cross-country event at Prince Henry’s High School, representing our school with pride and enthusiasm. The 1,700m course took them through orchards and fields, where they demonstrated many of our core school values, including excellent teamwork, determination, and perseverance. Every runner gave their best effort, encouraging one another throughout the challenging route. We were especially proud that many of our pupils finished in the top 20 out of 60 runners — a fantastic achievement! A special mention goes to Poppy, who finished an impressive 5th place, Jagoda, who came 7th, and Teigan, who secured 8th — an outstanding performance from all three!
Our Year 5 trip to Cadbury World was a fantastic experience! We began by touring through the rainforest, where we saw cacao trees and learned about the ancient Maya civilisation who first discovered the magic of chocolate. We then enjoyed a tour of the factory before sampling some delicious chocolate treats and even had a go at tempering our own chocolate. To finish the day, we took part in a fascinating workshop about the Maya civilisation, where we smelt raw cacao and even dressed up as Maya royalty — who were said to drink up to 30 cups of hot chocolate a day! It was a fun, educational, and chocolate-filled adventure from start to finish.
We’ve been singing and exploring with Incy Wincy Spider and Row, Row, Row Your Boat! The children loved getting creative with water play and making their very own spiders.
St Andrew’s Lions and St Andrew’s Barbarians took part in a Tag Rugby Festival at Bowbrook House this week. The children played outstanding rugby against schools from across South Worcestershire. Although many of their opponents were Year 6 pupils, our teams showed great confidence and determination, winning numerous matches and scoring some excellent tries. Well done, everyone!
