Journalism Club
Tue 29 Oct 2019Children who have attended Journalism Club were given the opportunity to visit the offices of Cambridge News. They were shown how journalists find pieces of news, where they write their articles and how these are edited by the news editor before they are published. During the tour they saw the news library, where old articles are stored and the first edition of Cambridge News from 1888. A lot has changed since then in publishing: the children learnt how news articles are published online and how the interests of readers are constantly monitored. Our young journalists had endless amounts of excellent questions which were thoroughly answered by David Bartlett, the editor-in-chief.

Woodland Trip
Tue 15 Oct 2019A small group of children visited Anglesey Abbey on Tuesday for a woodland adventure. A great time of year to be looking at how nature is changing and collecting fallen leaves.
The children were even treated to hot chocolate with the added bonus of marshmallow and cream.

Great Colville Bake off
Tue 15 Oct 2019Wow. Simply wow. What an enormous success the Colville Bake Off was. The PTA are delighted with the number of entries we had. The standard of baking was very high and the sheer volume of cakes proved a challenge to our staff tasters and judges. The results will be announced by Mr Hastings in Wednesday's assembly. Thank you to everyone who helped out at home with the preparation, cooking and aftermath of their child's creation!

Harvest Festival
Wed 09 Oct 2019Thank you to everyone who donated goods to our collection for Jimmy's of Cambridge. Our visitors from Jimmy's were so pleased with the actual donations and the comments and questions from the children during our assembly. The food items have been collected and are currently with Jimmy's ready for use in their shared houses. Barry (from Jimmy's café) reminded the children of the importance of charity and the types of problems faced by the homeless people of Cambridge. As a school, we should be proud of how well we supported the cause and feel pleased with our contribution.
