  IF YOU WERE AN ENGINEER COMPETITION

   

  In the Spring Term, all the children in school were inspired by our engineer visitor, Ben Kenny, and took part in Primary Engineering's competition: 'If you were an engineer, what would you do?'

   

  The children had to think of a solution to a problem and design an invention. We had some fantastic entries. 

   

  All the entries were sent off and judged by real life engineers. Every one has received a grading and will be presented with a certificate on Monday in assembly. 

   

  On Wednesday 5th June, Jemima and Matilda from Reception were presented with an award for their entries. Matilda won Highly Commended and Jemima was the overall winner for Reception. Well done girls we are really proud of you. 

  

• Half Term News

  Sat 25 May 2024 Mrs Baird

  The last half term has been a very busy term with lots of sporting events, competition and trips taking place. Firstly, well done to our Y6 who finished their SATs, we are so proud of their effort and determination. We are now looking forward to our weekend at Borwick Hall in June. 
  This week we had lots of fantastic news. 
  We announced the winners of our garden competition. They were a beautiful tribute to Mary. The entries are now in church for the parishioners to enjoy. Well done to our winners: Lucy, Archie, Colby and Lily-Ray. 
  A few weeks ago, children from all classes entered an engineering competition. Over 10000 children entered. On Thursday we received the news that Jemima in Reception had won first place in her age group. To add to that amazing results, Matilda in Reception was awarded 2nd place. Congratulations to both girls. 
  Ayda-Rose in Y6 was awarded the class winner of the Rotary competition. When the Rotary came with her amazing prize on Friday, we also found out she was the overall winner out of all the schools who entered. Well done Ayda-Rose. 
  The final of the BFC maths competition was on Friday and all our teams who entered got through to the final. They had a wonderful day at Turf Moor and our Year 2 team won their final. Another great result. 
  So as you can see, it’s been a great half term for St John’s. We hope you all have a lovely half term and let’s hope the sun shines as brightly as our children .
  Mrs McKeating and Miss Armstrong are spending their half term teaching in Africa. You can follow their work on the Mission Possible Facebook page. 
  Thank you to all our parents for your continued support.
