Autumn Term 2025 Dear Parents and Carers Summer seems like a distant memory as we wonder where this term had gone! It has been a long and busy Autumn term, packed with events and activities. The highlights have been the Reception   Nativity, Year 1 Harvest presentation, our Christmas Fayre, our many workshops for pupils and trips out for Reception, Year 1 and Year 5, the success of our sporting events and of course our Year 5 Carol Se

Our Nursery enjoyed a wonderfully festive parent workshop! The session began with the children proudly singing a few Christmas songs for their parents — a lovely way to get everyone into the Christmas spirit. After the singing, families enjoyed a range of Christmas activities together. The children were kept very busy as they: Made reindeer food Decorated baubles and stockings Decorated (and then happily ate!) biscuits, while parents enjoyed a mince pie Explored different Chr

Year 1 thoroughly enjoyed their coding workshop with Engagedu. The children had a fantastic time learning how to create simple algorithms to move a character on the screen. They showed great enthusiasm, problem-solving skills, and excellent teamwork as they explored the basics of coding in a fun and engaging way.

Thank you to all our children and families who made a toy donation this year - you all did SO well! Mrs Francis loaded them all into her car and took then to Beacon Church, ready to be collected and taken to a local refuge. Rev Chris was 'chuffed' with how much school had collected on behalf of the Refuge. They hadn't had many donations this year until he collected from Beacon Church and School on behalf of the local community. They can now help so many children and families

We are incredibly proud of all the children who took part in Reception's Christmas production. Every child sang and performed beautifully, filling the hall with festive cheer and getting us all into the Christmas spirit.

A Year 5/6 girls and boys athletics team went to Streetly Academy to take part in a Sports Hall Athletics event. Everyone tried their hardest, performed really well and above all, enjoyed the event. They competed against 4 other schools.

The choir brought some festive cheer to the Collingwood Centre this week. They performed a selection of songs for the Lunch Group, filling the room with seasonal spirit. They also sang for a group of adults with additional needs and their carers, who had been invited over from the library. It was a wonderful opportunity for our pupils to share their music with the wider community and to help spread a little joy at this special time of year.

Our School Council enjoyed a wonderful afternoon visiting the Mayor’s Parlour. The children had the opportunity to meet the Mayor, learn about her role within the community, and ask thoughtful questions. They were also given a special tour of the Council Chamber, where official council meetings take place. The visit was both inspiring and informative, giving our School Council members a closer look at how local democracy works. To top off the experience, the children were del

Our Reception children stepped into a world of festive wonder at Statfold Barn Railway. The adventure included a delightful ride on a steam train and posting their very own letters to Santa. Next stop was Mrs Claus’ bakery, where little hands decorated gingerbread with care and creativity. Giggles filled the air as the children enjoyed the old fairground rides, Finally, the highlight of the day — a special visit to Father Christmas himself, bringing smiles and sparkling ey

Autumn Term 2025 Dear Parents and Carers We are well and truly in the season of cold and wet weather. As such, we wanted to remind parents of our procedures in the event of adverse weather - particularly now we have moved to Arbor messages rather than texts. In the event of adverse weather, all efforts will be made to keep school open in order to minimise disruption to our children’s education and support working families. However, in

This afternoon the Year 5/6 girls football team played away against Millfield. Despite missing 2 key outfield players and our usual goalkeeper, the girls managed to win 1 - 0. We were lucky with the goal, as it was an own goal that settled the difference although we were probably the stronger team. Evie did an excellent job standing in as goalkeeper and Evelyn had a great game in defence.

Tuesday 18th November the boys Year 5/6 football team played in a tournament at Bescott Stadium. They played 4 games, beating Christchurch 4-0 and Holy Trinity 2-1, and drew against Short Heath 2-2, and County Bridge 0-0. Unfortunately they didn't get through to the final but did beat Mayfield convincingly in a friendly while the final was being played.

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who generously donated to Children in Need. Your support will made a real difference to a very worthwhile cause, helping to change the lives of vulnerable children across the UK. Children across school had a non-uniform day and some of our younger children joined Joe Wicks for his Live Activate session and listened to a special Children In Need story.

On Tuesday 18th November, the boys’ team went to Croft Academy and played on their all-weather pitch. Pheasey won 2–0! Well done!

Thursday 13th November 2025 Year 1 had an exciting day at the Museum of Childhood at Sudbury, enhancing their learning in history. The children became toy detectives, exploring toys from the past and comparing them to the ones they play with today. They also stepped back in time to experience what it was like to go to school during the Victorian period. In the Victorian school room, the children wrote on slates and learned about the rules and expectations for children at that
