Children in Need - November 2024

Remembrance Service At Yeovilton

 

On the 11th of November, members of the Invincibles club attended a meaningful Remembrance Service at Yeovilton Air Base. It was a special moment as two of our children laid a wreath to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. We are especially grateful to the parents in our school community who serve to protect and keep us safe. Thank you for your courage and dedication.

KS2 Parliament Talk with Baroness Garden of Frognal

 

KS2 had the exciting opportunity to join a Teams meeting with Baroness Garden of Frognal. They asked insightful questions and learned a great deal from her. She spoke about her role in introducing the Pupil Premium into schools, her involvement in the Rwanda debate, and her upcoming work on the assisted dying debate. Baroness Garden also explained the differences between the House of Lords and the House of Commons, highlighting the biggest issues facing the UK today: the Health Service and Education. She encouraged young people to engage in politics, advising them to first develop valuable skills.

Art Studio Opening - 30th September 2024

As the flagship school of the trust, we strive to provide the ultimate provision for our children and as such, we decided the next goal for Preston would be to achieve Arts Mark Status for our school. When we began our Arts Mark journey, we had a vision of providing a dedicated space for Art and Design.  

We would like to acknowledge the people who donated their time, skills, and expertise. Whether you helped with the planning, construction, decorating, or any of the other countless tasks, your contributions have been invaluable. This studio truly reflects the collective effort of our wonderful community.

We would like to say a special shout out to Joe from the organisation Able 2 Achieve. Joe and his wonderful team of adult learners have created the beautiful mosaic sign for our studio. Thank you to Joe and your team for providing time, care and for being a wealth of knowledge about community contacts.

Leonardo’s as part of their commitment outreach service, very generously donated the  stainless steel sinks needed for the job and allowed us to rummage around their disposal unit looking for things we could use or re-purpose for the space. Thank you to Suze and her team for overseeing our scavenging. Morrisons and Tesco donated cake for the opening and the lovely PTA helped with refreshments. And lastly, a huge  thank you to Watertite for transforming the exhausted plumbing into a functioning cleaning area.

Mrs Chambers took a group of Year 3/4 children to Bucklers Mead for a football tournament against 11 other primary schools. They did so well, drawing 1 game and winning 3! We are very proud of you all!

Mrs Cashmore's Summer Writing Challenge

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part in Mrs. Cashmore's Summer Writing Challenge. The quality of the entries was truly exceptional, with each piece showcasing a high level of creativity, thoughtfulness, and impressive writing skills. It was wonderful to see such enthusiasm for storytelling, and every participant should be proud of their hard work and effort. I had a very difficult time selecting the winners, as all the entries were so strong. After much deliberation, I am pleased to announce the winners: congratulations to Ferne, Arianna, and Lucy for their outstanding contributions! Your stories and poems were captivating, and I look forward to seeing more great writing in the future.
