Collaboration – Lady Bay Arts trail
Tue 07 May 2024It was lovely for the majority of children at Lady Bay to work with the team organising the Lady Bay Arts trail this week. The children went to All Hallows to create their own square to add to the community art project. All the squares will be put together to make a quilt, which is going to look amazing. You can see how hard Bayma tried with her design in the picture. You will be able to see all the designs at the Lady Bay Arts Trail in a couple of weeks.

Reflection and Curiosity – Assembly this week
Tue 07 May 2024It was International Dance day this week and to mark the occasion we invited Vanessa Oxspring in to talk to the children. Vanessa shared the benefits of dance for your mental health and wellbeing and that it is a great exercise too. We were also delighted that the year 1 and 2 children performed their dances from V Create and the year 6 children showed off their choreography which they will be showcasing at a Rushcliffe event in July. It was a fantastic assembly and a great way for children to see the health benefits of dance. V Create runs on a Monday and Wednesday and if you are interested in your child attending, please contact Vanessa directly.

Respect and caring for the environment – Eco Committee
Mon 29 Apr 2024The Eco Committee have been very busy this week. They did some weeding in the garden to make some space for some native wildflower seeds to be planted.

Reflection and Curiosity – Assembly this week
Mon 29 Apr 2024We were really pleased that Mrs Conway agreed to talk to the children in assembly this week. Mrs Conway is from Uganda and has recently been successful in her application for British citizenship. Mrs Conway talked to the children about what her life in Uganda, why she moved to England and what she had to do to pass the test for citizenship. Mrs Conway also talked to the children about the British Values and what they each meant. It was a really interesting assembly and on the back of this we will be doing more work talking to the children about the British values and what each of them mean to them and their everyday life. A super assembly with lots of interesting questions.

All our school values – Year 4 residential
Fri 26 Apr 2024The children in year 4 were on their residential trip this week to PGL Caythorpe. Residentials are a brilliant time for us to see the children out of their classrooms and excelling at different outdoor activities. There were times where they had to push themselves as they felt a little scared and all of them would have taken lots from the experience. The children climbed a 10-metre wall, played scooter tag, travelled on the lake on a paddleboard, went on the zip wire and learnt how to shoot arrows at the archery. I thoroughly enjoyed going to see them take part in the activities too. Thank you to the parents for supporting the trip, the staff who stayed with the children for the 3 days and to the children for showing all our school values.

Caring for each other – Emelia’s amazing effort
Fri 26 Apr 2024It is always lovely to share things that some of our children have done outside of school. Emelia (in year 4) has been growing her hair for a long time and over Easter she did something really special. Emilia donated her hair to the Little Princess Trust, Emilia donated 14 inches (36cm) of her hair which will be used to create a real har wig for a child who has cancer. More information can be found here on her fundraising page. Emilia has also raised over £1,400 for the charity too. Incredible effort. Emilia has also raised over £1,400 for the charity too.
