We have an amazing team of cross country runners who run in the weekly club and Mendip races but some of our superstars were selected to run in the inter-area match representing Mendip with great success this week.  

Nightingales kick started their new enquiry unit of Our Local Area by taking a trip to the Glebe Land just outside of school. Nightingales loved the opportunity to explore their local area just outside of school by discovering dens, looking at what animals they could see around them and having fun in the field!

Falcons took the new Phizzi Science equipment outside to explore how to create circuits using different electrical components.  There was some amazing collaboration and reflection with scientific questioning and ideas too.  They finished as a class exploring using an energy stick, posing lots of science questions including how big they could make the circle of children to keep the circuit going and even exploring using faces and feet too!

Considering a new school for your child for September 2024?  Please do come and visit our wonderful school.  

St Aldhelm's celebrated Book Week in comfy style this year.  After full on dressing up in the last few years as favourite characters and amazing words, this year, children asked if we could read in comfort.  Children explored a wordless picture book called Tuesday by David Weisner and enjoyed sharing their learning between classes.  On World Book Day, children enjoyed virtual sessions with amazing worldwide authors as well as choosing which story they wanted to listen to with hot chocolate and a biscuit prepared by the PTA.   Another brilliant example of 'learning together for life in all its fullness'.  

Following British Science Week, we held our first highly successful Science Fair.
