SJB Primary School

Reception have had a great week, learning about money. They planted some sunflower seeds last month so, when they had grown, they could sell them to raise money. This week, Mrs O’Connor helped them to make bath bombs to sell as well.

After school, Mrs O’Connor set up a stall in our playground and the grown ups came in to buy our produce. Everything was 50p each and we sold loads!

The class have decided to spend half of the money we raised on a treat for the class and to give the other half to a charity to help other people. What a lovely idea.

Choir have been out to the market today to open the Love Your Local Market week. The children performed a mixture of songs where they had to sing in parts and use actions.

The children did a fantastic job.

A special well done to Darcee who came in as soon as she was able to.

We have been playing Mary had a Little Lamb and are very excited to show the school.

SJB were visited by Katie on Tuesday.

She spoke about her swimming career and her successes.

She also mentioned determination and team work as being key.

Katie even managed to link in the animals she saw on her channel swim.

We were all engaged from the start and we were very impressed with her story.

Thank you very much Katie.

Yesterday, Year 5 went to UVHS for a taster Spanish lesson. The children had a brilliant time and thoroughly enjoyed the lesson. We would like to say a huge thank you to Miss Steele for having us.

Brilliant cycling today Year 6. Well done!

We’ve had a great evening with lots of fun. Everyone is busy brushing their teeth and getting comfy for the night. Sweet dreams everyone.

Well done to our orienteering team.

Many of the group were competing for the first time.

They did very well and we were impressed with their accuracy.

We are looking forward to Fell Foot next week.
