Congratulations to the children and staff of Endeavour (blue) Team, who won the 2019 Sports Morning! You were fabulous.

This is the first time in over ten years that Endeavour has won – it’s no wonder their Team Captain is smiling!

Today, the children were informed of their classes for September. As you are aware from last week’s newsletter, we have set classes for September based upon our knowledge of the children’s academic ability, as well as knowing the children with whom they work well. We have also considered boy/girl…

It was so lovely to receive this positive feedback on our survey this week. Comments such as this make our hard work worth while!

Roseberry is a great school, where we see our children thrive. The Roseberry family feel is strong from walking through the gate on a morning. Times are sometimes…

A huge thank you to the volunteers who gave their time today to supervise our Year Three children on their visit to the Captain Cook memorial garden and exhibition! We couldn’t have done this without you.

We’ve had another great week of learning! This year is whizzing by and I can’t believe that the time for testing in Y2 and Y6 is upon us already! Y2 and Y6 SATs are a time for our children to show how they are able to use what they have learned, applying skills and knowledge. Y2 SATs are not…

Last weekend, William from Year Two was with his Grandad in MacDonalds. When he noticed that his Grandad was choking, he quickly leapt into action. He remembered what he had learned in school and slapped his Grandad hard on the back, whilst calling for help. Luckily, due to William’s quick…

It’s been a week of sharing our great practice! On Wednesday, five staff from the Enquire Learning Trust visited to carry out an Enquiry Walk in school, looking at children’s work, speaking with children, exploring the learning environment and seeing great teaching. They were very impressed with…
