St. NicholasCatholic Primary School

To begin our National Poetry Day work in English, Year 5 and Year 5/6 stepped outside for a Wonder Walk, taking time to notice the small details in the world around us and gather inspiration for our poetry. Along the way, we bumped into Rose from Forest School, who showed us some ladybirds moving through their fascinating process of change and transformation. It was a lovely, unexpected moment of awe and wonder, linking beautifully with our RE theme this week as we reflect on creation, the beauty of the natural world and the wonder we can find when we simply stop, look and notice.

Year 6 have been putting their map and communication skills to work this morning in orienteering

Year 6 have been climbing high

A morning paddle boarding is not a bad way to start the day!

Year 6 are up and ready for an exciting day!

We've had lots of brave children this afternoon facing the Giant Swing well done everyone for getting to the highest point!

The first trio to tackle 'The Big Swing!'

We are fed and watered and enjoying some free time in the sun before our first activity

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Macmillan Coffee Morning! It was lovely to come together as a school community and raise money for such an important cause. Thank you to our families for your generous donations, to Corpus Christi Catholic College staff for chatting with parents about the move to secondary school, and to our wonderful Mini Vinnies for helping throughout the morning and putting together this reel! A huge thank you, also, to all that joined us for this special morning of fundraising together. Parents, friends, relatives and parishioners, joining together in aid of something so important. We had so many treats donated that we held a bun sale on the playground at the end of the day on Friday to continue our fundraising!
