St Oswalds vs Ss Peter and Paul Football

Well done to the Y4 Girls Team for showing great teamwork, resilience and courage in their first game against Ss Peter and Paul Primary School.

It was wonderful to see the girls enjoying themselves playing football and supporting each other to be their best.


Robinwood

This week was a special week in Year 6 as they enjoyed a wonderful trip to Robin Wood. They took part in many activities, ranging from adventurous zip wire rides to puzzling problem solving escape rooms. The children represented St Oswald's in a tremendous manner and upheld all our school values. Our Year 6s showed resilience and respect throughout their trip and were commended by the Robin Wood staff for their manners and their positive attitudes! We are all extremely proud of them all!


SCARF Visit

This week, Years 4, 5 and 6 pupils have been involved in PSHE workshops covering key mental health and lifestyle topics.

Year 4 have focused on their own mental health, what this means to them and how they can improve it.

Year 5 have discussed friendships, assertiveness skills and also looked at the health risks of vaping and smoking.

Year 6 have learnt how to calm a busy mind when under stress.

The children found these workshops really informative and behaved excellently throughout.

Amazing to see so many girls with big smiles on their faces as they were playing football!


Lotherton Hall

Year 2 have been learning all about different habitats in science. On Wednesday, we went to Lotherton Hall to explore the Wildlife World, take part in a habitats workshop and hunt for minibeasts. We had a fantastic time watching the penguins swimming, seeing the flamingos balance while sleeping and getting up close to a white peacock!


Reading Buddies

Year two and five enjoyed their reading buddies session. Year two shared their poems they had written and year five read books related to the year two's learning topics

We all really enjoyed our visit from author Jenny York yesterday. We were introduced to the characters in her stories, were able to act out parts of her books, had lots of laughs and were inspired to write our own stories!


People Who Help Us

Explorer Day

Today Year 1 had an Explorer Day. We spent all morning in Forest School. We did scavenger hunts, made maps and cooked smores on the fire. This afternoon we had more fun activities including a quest to solve the riddles to spell the secret word.


The first chick has hatched!

The children in preschool were very excited to see 10 chicken eggs in their classroom. The children have been learning about the hatching process and how to care for the chicks once they arrive...
Yesterday, the first chick hatched! After several hours of pipping, Betty emerged from the egg rather exhausted but looking forward to meeting her brothers and sisters.
