For showing courage in the way you have managed coming to school with your broken leg. You have persevered with using your walking frame to get around school, have got on with all your learning even when your leg was uncomfortable and painful, and done it all with a positive, cheery attitude. Well done.

This week's shining stars are: Summer, Chester, Cecily and Sophia.

Summer was chosen for her fantastic effort in gymnastic this term.  She listens carefully to instructions and shows great control and strength when balancing on different parts of her body. Summer has also enjoyed demonstrating a variety of shapes and balance to her classmates, including tuck, pike, straddle, dish and arch.  Well done, Summer - keep up the great work!

Chester was chosen for his enquiry work.  We have been finding out how humans learnt to fly and Chester did a great job of ordering and labelling the pictures.  Well done Chester!

Cecily was chosen because of her fantastic work in science.  She remembered all the key knowledge from the lesson and presented it nicely.  She was also brilliant at recalling our proir learning from this year and the previous year.  Great work Cecily - keep it up!

Sophia was chosen because of her fantastic attitude and effort in Maths.  She has shown great determination when learning about finding the area of retangles, triangles and parallelograms tackling challenges with confidence and resilience.  Well done Sophia!

Our Shining Stars this week are: Primrose, Oliver, Aurora and Austin.

Primrose was chosen because of her contributions during our Maths sessions.  Primrose is willing to share her ideas and has fantastic, quick recall of number bonds to 10 and 20.  This has helped her when completing simple addition and subtraction number sentences in recent weeks.  Well done Primrose!

Oliver was chosen for his maths work.  We have been looking at mass and capacity and Oliver did a great job at the 2 step questions.  Well done Oliver!

Aurora was chosen because of her fantastic abstract work in Art.  Aurora was able to use regular items and make them abstract successfully.  She worked really hard on her designs ensuring they were somewhat recognisable but also reflective of the style.  Excellent work on both your designs and your mini sculpture Aurora.

Austin was chosen for his fantastic attitude in science.  During our space topic, he has shown great enthusiasm and creativity when designing his poster about the solar system, taking care to include lots of detail and explain his ideas clearly.  Well done , Austin!

For showing courage and compassion in stepping in to support another pupil in a difficult situation. By challenging the behaviour of one pupil to another you showed a perfect example of how to be a ‘defender’. Well done for acting when it would have been easier to remain a ‘bystander’. We are very proud of you.

Well done to our Year 5 and 6 Tag Rugby team who travelled to Dursley RFC to take part in a Tag rugby tournament.  It was a lovely sunny day and the pupils had a fantastic afternoon competing.  They played 9 matches against local schools and won all 9!
