The Red Arrows begin their flight…

Posted on October 20, 2011 by Miss S Cox

Last Wednesday, all the children and members of staff in red house were sent to the ICT suite to vote for a House Captain and House Vice Captain.  Two Year 6 children had prepared a speech to present to the red house members which explained why they thought they would be a good captain.  They then went outside whilst all house members (including the staff!) voted for who they wanted to be captain.

We then thought of lots of ‘red things’ that we could name our house. These included ‘red rubies’, ‘red cannon’ and even ‘red Somerford jumpers’ but the final decision (which was thought of by a year 5 student) was ‘Red Arrows’!

Well done Red Arrows for a super assembly, let’s win some competitions!!

A fun filled afternoon

Posted on May 18, 2013 by Mrs Hudson

What a busy day! Thank goodness for a rest, cup of warm tea and a chance to blog. After a carb filled lunch  (to recharge our batteries) of wraps, spicy chicken or beef and nachos, we have all taken part in 2 more fantastic activities. Mrs Hudson was particularly excited about the aeroball activity as we had told her all about it this morning and she eagerly listened to the instructions before smashing the ball in the goal.

What good listening skills you have!

Some of us learnt some great survival skills today. How to build a shelter and start a camp fire using flint. It was a tricky and physical task that needed a lot of team work and concentration but we got there in the end. I’m not sure I would want to test the shelters out in the bad weather though!

Smile!

You can do it!

We better go now and catch up with Mrs Hudson and the others at the campfire, singing songs and enjoying toasted marshmallows. (I hope they saved us one) Pictures will follow tomorrow. Fingers crossed for an early night tonight. Miss Surman and Miss Bairstow
