Here it is - our new entrance.

This is our temporary entrance for the last half term. Parents can take children in Yr R, 1 and 2 to their classrooms through this entrance. Children in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 are being asked to walk to class on their own. 

The office team will be staffing this new entrance throughout the day so it's business as usual. 

 The builders started in site today - photos to follow ... 

Off we go !

Here is a quick glimpse of the work starting on our new entrance. It will definitely be finished in time for the start of school after the holidays. 

More photos to follow ...

As you were ...

Don't worry folks, we're all back on track now. The builders will move in over half term so the new entrance and the new fire plan will start when we get back. 

We'll try to post some photos over half term so it's not too much of a shock when you get back! 

Hold your horses!

We're sad to say that the start of our building work is going to be slightly delayed. There is a technical hitch with getting supplies to school to start the work.

We'll update you when we have more information. Sorry for any confusion.

Where did the office go?

All change!

This is a map showing our new entry point while the builders are working on site.
There will be a temporary entrance and reception built at the very top of the school, behind the minibus garage. The entrance will be staffed all day and you will be able to use it just like the old one!

Unfortunately, the corridor being used is quite narrow, so we are asking that children in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 are dropped off at the entry point and then walk themselves to class.

This entrance will start to be used on Monday 13th May - next Monday!

Ms Filer and Mr Robinson will be on hand first thing Monday morning to make sure everything goes smoothly.

Any problems, just ask! 

New Fire Plan

New Fire Plan

Here is our brand new fire plan. We will use this plan for the rest of the term once the builders arrive on the 13th. All of the children have been shown the plan in assembly and have talked about it in their classes.

We will be practicing it several times during the first few days of the project so that all of the staff and children are aware of what to do in the event of a fire.

Please read our new plan carefully

The builders are coming ...

And so it begins ...

Two weeks today, work will begin on our brand new building! We are having seven new classrooms and a new reception area built in tyhe area between Sure Start and the existing office.

It will be a two-storey modular building built by a company called Built Offsite. It is going to be extremely environmentally friendly and we are hoping it will be the first school in Southampton to be awarded the BREEAM 'Excellent' award.

There will be lots of changes to the way the school operates during the time it is being built but this is the place to find out all you need to know. We will be regularly updating our blog with all the information you need to make sure the end of the school year goes swimmingly.

Crazy hair day!

We recently took part in Red Nose Day where students and teachers wore crazy hair styles. Here are a few pictures. We hope everyone enjoyed dressing up! What did you do for Red Nose Day?

Recently Year 6 went on residential to Little Canada where they enjoyed many different challenging tasks. Here are a few pictures of what we got up to :)

A cup of tea after a hard days work of conquering fears

What a great week we had....don't you agree Year 6?!

This half terms SEAL topic was 'Good to be me'. As a school we set ourselves a 'Time Out Challenge'. We discussed the importance of having a time out area for each class. The children were given buddies to help support them when feeling: sad, angry, upset or scared. We feel the children have done a great job in making their area as meaningful to their class as possible. Do you agree?
