Lots of wonderful model Victorian homes made, complete with William Morris designed wallpaper and furniture. The children absolutely loved making these and put lots of love and care into them! HighSpen Primary 🌟

WOW, What an opportunity! What a day! we practiced some crucial cycling skills this morning and then took those skills out into the woods. We rode all the way to Chopwell and back. I was blown away by the effort everyone put in. Well done year 4. HighSpen Primary

Year 2 loved their Teddy bears picnic today!

Today Y2 learnt about hot and cold colours. We used watercolours and enjoyed creating background scenes.

We are THRILLED to say we have been selected as one of five schools in the North East to be offered a sponsored Melva experience. Thanks to Ryder Architecture for funding this opportunity. Ryder Architecture

Such a fascinating session delivered by @safetyworksuk. Year 4 was so engaged with learning about fire safety. A lot of brilliant facts that can keep us safe at home and out and about. Well done everyone. HighSpen Primary

Y2 have loved their visit from the fire service today! They showed us their uniforms and all of the equipment they use to help people. The fire service kindly donated £500 to our school which we are going to use to create a cosy reading. Thank you to ZO2 -Chopwell Fire Service!
