SJB Primary School

The Bright Stars campaign has been a big success. Look out for our posters in town. The final survey is coming up as well.

We had a great time and collected so much rubbish that Mrs Ambrose had to dash back to school with filled bags. Thank you to Florrie, Joseph, Skyla, Louise and SLDC for providing equipment. Thanks also to Louise’s grandma and Alleah’s mum and brother for helping out.

Well done Year 6, we are very proud of you!

We were absolutely delighted that Lakeland Orienteering were able to present trophies to Woody, Emily and Florrie. Mr Maher received the overall winner’s trophy. Well done SJB and a big thank you to Mr Maher and Lakeland Orienteering.

It was great to see our Team GB athlete at SJB yesterday.

Ayaz gave a whole school assembly and we will take his message about resilience forward into the new academic year.

All the children then took part in a fitness circuit with Ayaz.

We wish him and all of Team GB well at the Olympic Games and the Paralympic Games. Best of luck with being selected Ayaz!

Following the History work on our local area, some of Year 2 have been out and about exploring!

Today we have found out that animals that eat plants are herbivores. Animals that eat meat are carnivores and animals that eat both are omnivores! We designed a meal on paper plates for a carnivore, omnivore and herbivore. 🍃🌺🍗🦔🐇🐕‍🦺

A little peek of some Year 2 writing this week describing the journey in the book Lost and Found. Once Year 2 have finished we will post some more!

In Year 5 we have had a brilliant time learning about the Ancient Greeks and reading Who let the gods out by Max Evans.
To celebrate the end of the topic we had an Ancient Greek themed day. We all dressed up in robes, we had a feast trying Greek food ( we were not too keen on olives as you’ll see by the photos!), painted vases and competed in the Olympics for our city-states.
In the Olympics we took part in the traditional sports of foot races, javelin, discus and long jump. Delphi was our winning city-state!

In Nursery, we have been looking at how materials change so today we melted marshmallows and then added washing up liquid. The result? A sticky mess but lots of fun! It got so sticky, it even glued the spoon to Mathilda’s hand. 😀
