Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
We have all been doing a great job collecting sweet tubs! Three girls today have helped put all the tubs together from all the different classrooms and we have made several big towers with them.
Mr Gregory's class have currently collected the most! But we are still collecting for a short while longer. So finish those last few sweets, bring in the tubs and make sure your teacher knows to tell Mrs B as she is still keeping a list of which class brings in the most! Lets see if we cna make those towers taller!
We have been selected to receive a grant from Tesco to buy equipment so that we can deliver a wider range of after school clubs.

Please make sure you tell all your friends and relatives to vote for us too!
This voting will run until April!
On Wednesday Sandra Alvey from MDC, supported by Mrs Nessa ran a Cooking Club. The children from year 2 made pizzas and cereal desserts that they took home to eat for their tea! Great fun was had by all and Sandra was very impressed with the children's cutting skills and what they had remembered from when she ran a workshop in school last year. Well done to those children who signed up for the Club and came to teh first session.
On Wednesday 8th January we welcomed Chloe and her team from Severn Trent. Chloe supported the learning about the topic of water, by delivering a workshop about sewage and how we need to be careful about what we flush down the toilet! The children then were set a challenge to clean a sample of dirty water!
Chloe then talked through the afternoon about the brand new planters that have been installed around school. We are very lucky as we are the only school in Mansfield to receive these planters. They are very special as the use the rainwater from our roof to water the plants, instead of that water going down the drain! This is part of a whole programme of activities Severn Trent are undertaking around the Mansfield area to reduce flood water in the area. Chloe then lead an assembly for KS1 and KS2, talking about the work Severn Trent does.
