This year’s theme of Courage encouraged children to reflect on the bravery shown by people starting new lives in unfamiliar places. Pupils shared ideas about kindness, inclusion and respect, and how small actions can make a big difference. To celebrate, the children created unique “courage trophies” using tin foil, recognising the strength shown by others and themselves in facing challenges with confidence and compassion.

3 weeks ago Posted on 22nd May 2026 by Katie Bingham Year 6 Friday Fun! Our fantastic Year 6 pupils recently enjoyed a well-earned SATs treat after all their hard work, focus and determination. It was a wonderful opportunity for them to relax, celebrate their efforts and spend quality time together. The morning began with a visit from some adorable chicks, which brought lots of excitement and smiles. The children loved having the chance to hold them. Afterwards, the children headed to the park where they made the most of the fresh air and time with their friends. There was plenty of laughter as they played, explored and simply enjoyed being together outside of the classroom. To finish, the children took part in a fun pizza-making activity. They carefully prepared their own pizzas and then enjoyed eating their delicious creations together. We are incredibly proud of how hard Year 6 have worked during SATs and this whole half term, and this special treat was a brilliant way to recognise their effort and positivity. Well done, Year 6! 🍕🎉
