Year 1 had an amazing time at Knowlsey Safari Park. We looked around the animal enclosures and watched the giraffes being fed from the tallest trees. We wore head masks and joined in/ listened to a member of the park staff telling us about the Savannah Story. Then, we had a picnic before watching a very entertaining 'Sealion Show'. Following this, we watched a 'Bird of Prey' show, and an Baldheaded Eagle flew right over our heads! Finally, we explored the adventure park before heading around the animal park on our coach. The highlight of the day was when a lion and lioness came within touching distance of the coach! What a fun, action packed day we all had. All the children were a credit to our school and I couldn't be prouder of them...well done Year 1!

A fantastic time was had by all who attended our first 'Sleepover' since lockdown. The evening consisted of team games, a campfire toasting marshmallows and hot chocolate and a movie. The children particpated well in all the activities and particularly enjoyed the campfire song of 'Boomerang'. Thank you to all who came to help raise all important funds for our school.

Year 2 had an amazing time at Knowsley Safari Park. They saw lots of animals on their walk around, had time to explore the adventure playground and found out lots of fascinating facts in a classroom session. In the afternoon they watched a sealion show and birds of prey display before finally taking a coach tour around the park. It was a fun filled day!

Year 6 have had a brilliant time at PGL this weekend! We started on Friday evening with a very competitive game of Laser Tag which saw the blue team win. On Saturday the groups took part in the zip wire and then problem activities in the morning - this relied on great team work. After lunch, the two groups came back together for a canoeing session with some getting wetter than others! They finished the day with camp fire songs and toasted marshmelloew. Both groups managed to take part in the giant swing and rifle shooting before the weather turned and a storm was above us for an hour or so in the afternoon. This did not stop us taking part in the high ropes and a very muddy survivor task - buidling a sheltar and making a fire. After tea, we took part in some indoor team games before bed. Before we came home on Monday, the two groups did some abseiling and completed a challenge course. The weekend saw many of the children challenging themselves to do activities they had never done before - we are very proud of them all!

We were delighted to have a visit from the Mayor, Lynn Clarke, and Mayoress, Hayley Clarke, this week. They were accompanied by Mayor's Cadet, Emily, who is a former Lyme pupil and the daughter of our Chair of Governors, Caroline Unsworth. They presented this week's achievement certificates and Headteacher's awards during our celebration assembly and talked to the children about how they serve the community in their roles. After assembly,
our Rights-Respecting Schools Ambassadors talked about our recent reaccreditation of the UNICEF gold award and how they are teaching our community about children's rights. Members of The Singing Stars showed off our art display, including playground mural, and talked about our recent Artsmark Award. Madam Mayor was keen to hear about our PATHs curriculum and how we are hoping to be awarded model school status this year - our B's Buddies spoke about their role in using PATHs during break and lunchtimes to support other children. Some of our Y5 pupil gave our visitors a tour around school giving children from each class the chance to ask them some questions.
Madam Mayor commented that: 'The children were an absolute credit to the school and had lots of interesting questions for us.'

Y5 have enjoyed taking part in Bikeability sessions this week. They have developed confidence when riding and learned new safety skills - especially when riding on the road. Some useful advice:
"Instead of putting your foot on the ground, put your feet on the pedals to start off." (Spencer)
"We learned about how to ride on the roads and how important it is to look when we are crossing." (Sukaina)
"Always remember to look at the road closest to you when crossing." (Rebecca)
Why should we eat well and look after our teeth?
Date: 2nd May 2024 @ 4:57pm
Today, Y3 have had a visit from our School Nurse (Carol) and the Health Nurse (Helen).
They visited us to help us with our Learning Question : Why should we eat well and look after our teeth?
We learnt all about brushing your teeth correctly - and we got to use the model teeth and toothbrushes.
We talked about sugar and how it gives us energy - but then we found out you should not have more than 6 sugar cubes per day. Also, some drinks have too much sugar and caffeine in them. We investigated the sugar content in some popular drinks.

Thank you to the Eco Team and all the children who came to Gardening Club over the Easter holidays. They were very busy bees: creating plant pots and bird houses; preparing the planters; cleaning up the pond area or a nauture garden; planting some fruits and vegetables; creating 3 new bug hotels and planting lots of wild flowers to help maintain and attract our local wildlife. We were all exhausted after two days of very hard work but are looking forward to seeing our results over the next months.

A huge thanks to all the parents and children who attended the Easter Craft Event organised and run by our Student Council. The children had a fabulous and very creative time and we managed to raise some more money towards our much needed sound system. It definitely got us all ready for our Easter break - Enjoy!
