• Trip to the Ritz

  Wed 20 Dec 2023 Mrs Howell

  We had a fabulous time watching The Grinch at the Ritz this morning. We want to say a huge thank you to the train staff who supported us and to the staff at the Ritz who always make us feel so welcome.
  
  We also had a lovely surprise when we returned as Ambergate Methodist Church had left an angel for each child attached to our railings.
  
  What a lovely day!

  A huge thank you to Mrs Oakley who has started some planting with the children. Each group will have their own bed to plant over the next few weeks. Year 3/4 started theirs this morning.

  

• Challenge Morning

  Mon 06 Nov 2023 Mrs Howell

  We've had an amazing first morning back!
  
  Our new building learning power character is Strategic Owl so we are thinking about how we learn best, the resources we need to learn and planning. We are really promoting the children taking ownership of their learning and striving to be resilient in all aspects of their lives.
  
  To launch our new character, we've had a challenge morning. All the children were divided up into mixed groups from Reception through to Year 6 and asked to design and make a newspaper outfit for our fashion show. The results were amazing! The children were fabulous, worked brilliantly in their teams and were very well supported by their Year 6 team leader.
  
  I am really proud of our Ambergate Team.

• History Day

  Fri 27 Oct 2023 Mrs Howell

  The children had a great time during this year’s History Day with some very creative costumes! We had working waterwheels, clay tiles of the mill buildings, patterns inspired by the mills, stone age tools made by flint napping soap and jewellery with animal teeth. We also had some very kind grandparents that gave up their time to share their experiences with Class 1. Thank you for your support.
