  • On Monday, we will be hosting our Parents' Pop-Up Event. Mrs Kevill and Mrs Hann have worked hard to put this event together. We will be welcoming representatives from South West Water, Employment Plus, The Salvation Army, Healthy Cornwall, Social Prescriber, Family Support, and Kernow Young Carers. This is a fantastic opportunity to speak to all of these services in one place. Mrs Hann and Mrs Kevill will also be on hand to offer additional support where needed. There will be a large amount of uniform and coats available to take or swap for items your child may have outgrown.

  • Year 4 have been working like scientists to set up an experiment to answer the question: which is the most effective toothpaste? We have been learning that bacteria eat the sugar on our teeth, then releases acid into our mouths. This acid causes tooth decay and may lead to fillings and extractions. We now have eggs sitting in vinegar covered with three different types of toothpaste. We are looking forward to seeing what happens to the shells- will the results match our predictions?
