What an amazing event! The children really took on board TREDS values of rugby and demonstrated excellent skills during the event. 

Thank you to all the Year 6 students who were extremely supportive and engaging with the children. Huge thanks to the Henley Hawks coaches for running such an inspirational event and thanks to Mrs Evans for organising it all. 

It was fantastic to see everyone taking part even though it was hot. 

KS1 pupil Oscar had the idea to hold a bake sale outside his house to raise money for an Owl Sanctuary in Cornwall, which he visited over the holidays. He was really inspired by the literary topic last term and has been passionate about owls ever since. He and his brother sold cakes, cookies and home-grown vegetables and raised over £145 for the Sanctuary. Well done to Oscar for living our school vision.

On Wednesday 21st May, several KS2 girls joined Sacred Heart, Badgemore and Valley Road in a Football Tournament at Henley YMCA. Year 5/6 came second against a very strong team from Valley Road, showing incredible sportsmanship and great teamwork. Year 3/4 came first and second, and with just one point in it a fabulous fourth. 

It was a fantastic afternoon, despite the thunderstorm and heavy rain and Mrs Evans was really proud of everyone. Well done girls!

On Thursday 8th May, pupils came into school dressed in red, white and blue to celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day. Children shared family stories in class about people who lived through the War. Lessons included making bunting. Pupils from our school council were invited to go to the Town Hall for a special event marking VE Day, which included a fish and chip lunch. Thank you to everyone who donated to the British Legion.

Our newly formed Year 6 netball team took part in their first tournament and came away with the 'progress' award. They have now been invited to take part in the South Oxfordshire regional tournament. Well done!

World Book Day is always a highlight for pupils (and teachers).  This year children took part in a masked reader competition, where children had to guess which teachers were reading famous stories to them, while not showing their faces. They also took part in a word-based treasure hunt around the school site to unscramble words, which made up a well-known sentence from Winnie the Pooh. They all engaged in lots of fun activities in class, all based around our school book 'The Word Collector' and our whole school assembly celebrated the children who took part in our Extreme Reading Challenge, where children we photographed reading in unusual places outside.
