Futsal Tournament 3rd place!

29.3.23 – On Tuesday 28th March, 11 of our Year 3 and 4 boys and girls participated in the Futsal Tournament Finals at Sir John Colfox school.
As always, our Parrett and Axe children displayed all our school values of Kindness, Respect, Courage and Equality and finished a credible 3rd. This was after a tense penalty shoot-out against Sticklands school from Evershot.
A special mention must go to our heroic goal-keeper who saved 2 of the penalty kicks.

As always, we thank the parents who transported and supported our children at this event.

Well Done Hockey Team!

21.3.23 – On Tuesday 14th March, 10 of our children took part in the Quicksticks Tournament at Sir John Colfox school in Bridport.

We played 5 games in Round Robin matches. Each game was played over 12 minutes, 6 minutes each way.

Each child played expertly and with great determination and skill. We came 3rd on Goal difference and all our pupils played brilliantly upholding our school and Olympic Values.

World Book Day 2nd March

World Book Day will be a non-school uniform day. If you would like, you can dress up as your
favourite book character


Whole School Book Swap


At the end of the day school council will be holding a book swap event in the hall. If you have
any unwanted books (we will be having an adult section as well), please bring them in with your
child in the morning. Mr Copping will then sort them and after school you will have the
opportunity to come into school and choose new books to take away.
Any books left over after the event will be boxed up and sent to the charity Books2Africa as
part of their ‘readcycling’ project and to improve the quality of education in Africa. So
please dig out those old books and give them a new home.


World Book Day books


Our local bookshop, Little Toller Books (https://www.littletoller.co.uk/little-toller-
bookshop/) are kindly providing our free books this year. Every child will be able to choose a
book to take home on the day.

Tree Planting Bonanza

8.12.22 – In the middle of November we held tree planting sessions in school. Every child was given the opportunity to plant a tree somewhere in our school grounds.
Local Tree Expert, Pete Rothman, who has years of experience planting trees in schools with children, came in to help us over two days.
We now have a spectacular new hedgerow to look after in our forest school area and lots of new Rowan, Silver Birch and Cherry Trees planted in and around the school grounds.
The children worked extremely hard and really enjoyed learning about the importance of planting trees. They were so proud of their achievements and of the idea that the trees will be on the school grounds for years to come. It was a really special couple of days as you will hopefully see by the pictures!!!
Thanks to the PTFA for funding our local tree expert and to all the parents, children and school staff who lent a hand on the day!
We really look forward to seeing them flourish!
Next stop – An Orchard!
Watch this space.
