A Message from Mr Morton

What a wet and windy start to the half term we have all had! I am pleased to report that the wet weather hasn’t dampened our enthusiasm for learning. The children have returned with great gusto and are already off to a great start. All of the classes are wading deep into their new discovery topics and we can’t wait to see where their learning takes them! Dare I say the C word this early? Christmas is around the corner and we have begun to rehearse the carols for our candlelight performance, our KS1 nativity and the return of the Yr5 and Yr6 Christmas play. We are very excited to be able to share all of their hard work and acting skills with you later on in the term. Watch this space .      Categories: 1 CategorySchool News

Welcome back everyone. We really missed each and every one of you! Our term is off to a great start with a pantomime dress up day to set the tone for the term. It was delightful to see so many pirates, princesses and not too many footballers! (Oh no you didn't, Oh yes I did!) Sorry about that! We are very excited to be able to offer this whole school trip to experience a theatre. As part of this year's focus across our school we plan to help our children to grow as individuals who are independent and take ownership of their actions and themselves more. We believe that part of this journey involves being more adventurous to get to know ourselves better and also having greater opportunities to experience new things that enrich our lives. The adventure starts here!  Categories: 1 CategorySchool News

Welcome back everyone!   We hope that you have all had a restful summer break and enjoyed lots of new adventures and relaxing days. We are grateful to have such nice weather for our return to school, allowing the children the chance to get outside and catch up with their friends and have a run around. It is a shame that we didn’t have this weather during the holidays but we will embrace it while we have it. Winter is coming!   The children have all settled back into school life seamlessly. Everyone is enjoying their new classes and they all look so smart in their new school uniforms. I have had the pleasure of complimenting many of them on their new…everything! It is a good time to remind everyone to please ensure that all items of clothing and objects that come into school have a clear name label on them. It helps us to return misplaced items swiftly to their rightful place.   Staffing updates:   We have had confirmation from Mrs Sandiford (from her rooftop garden!) that she is safely in Egypt and loving her new job and accommodations. We are not jealous at all!!!!   We welcomed Miss Raybold’s little baby girl, Marlee, into the world. We look forward to many cuddles over the coming weeks.   Mrs Staniland underwent major surgery over the summer break. She is well and recovering at home. She wanted you all to know that she is on the mend and looks forward to seeing everyone around the village again soon. Until she is back up and working I have continued my split headship role over the 2 schools. I’m sure you will join us in wishing her a speedy recovery.   We officially welcome Miss Hill to our teaching team as the Totnes class teacher. She is off to a flying start and we can’t wait to see the exciting experiences she will enrich our school with over the year.   We also welcome David Seccombe and Emma Logan to our school site maintenance and cleaning team.    Lots to take in within only 2 days of school so far… We will soon be sharing many more school events and letters from the class teachers and FoCS about all of the amazing events and learning experiences we have planned over the coming term. Please do come and say hi on the playground anytime for a catch up or chat. I look forward to our exciting year’s adventure together.     Mr Steve Morton     Head of School  Categories: 1 CategorySchool News
