    As part of our Big Walk and Wheel event, we're excited to see the children participate by riding their bikes and scooters! Please kindly remind your child that wearing a helmet is mandatory for their safety during the event. Additionally, we want to let you know that we will be extending the days children can bring in their bikes and scooters next week. They can now bring them in on both Tuesday and Thursday so they have even more opportunities to take part!

    A huge thank you to our fantastic Year 3s for making our Laches Wood trip such a memorable experience! Over the course of the trip, they participated in a variety of exciting activities, including cave painting, fire starting, spear throwing and even making their own caveman crafts. They embraced every challenge with enthusiasm, resilience, and teamwork and we couldn't be more proud of them. They showed incredible determination and creativity, and their behaviour throughout the trip was exemplary. They even slept well, which is always a sign of a trip filled with adventure and fun! We are so proud of each and every one of them and are thrilled to see them grow and thrive in so many ways. A huge St Thomas' well done Year 3s! You've made us all so proud, and we hope you'll remember this experience for years to come.

    In Science year 6 have been learning about the circulatory system. We had a go at making our own blood using cheerios for red blood cells, rice crispies for white blood cells, red and yellow food colouring for the plasma and the white kidney beans were platelets. We had so much fun.

    Join Us for the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel Event! We are excited to announce that our school will be taking part in the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel event starting Monday, March 24th for two weeks! This is a fantastic opportunity for everyone to get active and promote walking and sustainable travel. Here's how you can get involved: Walk or Park and Stride: We encourage as many students and families as possible to walk to school or use the park and stride method. Prize Draw: Any child who has walked or used the park and stride method for 75% of the two weeks will be entered into a prize draw! So, get walking to increase your chances of winning. For the Year 3 children who will be out on a residential for two days, 75% will be based on the days they are actually in school. Scooters and Bikes: To make break and lunchtime even more fun, we will be sectioning off parts of the playground so that children can bring their scooters and bikes for some extra outdoor fun during the day. Steps Challenge: Classes will also be participating in a 'How Many Steps Can You Walk?' investigation. Each class will predict how many steps it will take to walk 3 laps of the field, and then they will complete the challenge to see how close their predictions were. Let's get moving, have fun, and support the planet! Don't forget to walk, park and stride, or bring your scooter or bike to school. We can't wait to see everyone taking part and working together to make this event a huge success! Let's make the Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel event a memorable and active two weeks!

    Lots of Red Nose Day fun in year 2 on Friday. We played pin the red nose on the person, designed our own noses, created ourselves with red noses and completed word searches. A happy Friday had by all.
