• New Reading Shed

  Wed 20 Sep 2023 Mrs Bird

  Our Reading Shed fell into a sorry state of disrepair last year. So we have spent a bit of time rebuilding, re-painting and refurbishing it over the Summer, so that it is a welcoming and cosy place to sit and relax with a good book, or comic during break times. We've got a team of volunteers who are going to help keep it tidy too. A big thank you to Mr Bird for all his carpentry skills and Mrs Clarkson for making it so cosy. 

  

• Excellence Exhibition

  Tue 19 Sep 2023 Mrs Bird

  Coppull Parish is a wonderful school, but we never rest on our laurels, we are always trying to find new ways of making the school even better - a place of excellence. One of the ways we are doing this is by teaching the children to reflect critically on their work and through ‘kind, specific and helpful’ peer critique, to produce several drafts in order to make their work the best it can possibly be. During the first two weeks of term, our Year 1-6 classes were creating some fabulously creative art work, which they have improved through feedback, in order to produce work, they are truly proud of.

   

  As a result of all their hard work, we held an ‘Excellence Exhibition’ today to showcase their amazing art work and, in some cases, show the progress from their starting points to the final display piece.  Families, friends, neighbours and the local community were all invited to join us, to see what a huge difference ‘not settling for your first attempt’ really makes.

   

  Please take a look and judge the progress for yourselves.

  

• MacMillan Coffee Morning

  Tue 19 Sep 2023 Mrs Bird

  We held our annual MacMillan Coffee Morning today, on a very wet and blustery September morning. However, our families did not let us down, they braved the dreadful weather and came and joined us for refreshments. Thank you so much to the staff and parents who did all the baking for us and to everyone that attended the event and helped us raised much needed funds for this wonderful charity.

  

• Swimming Pool at Coppull Parish

  Fri 15 Sep 2023 Mrs Bird

  We decided to hire a swimming pool, from Pro-Sport, to ensure that our children had first class small group swimming tuition in the school grounds. This way, we saved travelling time and made sure that children spent the maximum time in the water, with the instructor, and lifeguard looking on. At the end of two weeks, the whole of Year 3, Year 2 and any previous non-swimmers from Year 4, 5 and 6 have ALL been swimming. It has been wonderful and so many of our children are now water confident and able swimmers. Well done everyone!!!
