Here are nearly 400 photos taken during today’s Sports Day, The weather only broke just as we were finishing, and the whole school was able to get out onto the field to cheer the children on. Yet again, the children were amazing and we are incredibly proud of them all.

Last Friday Urban Strides visited Holy Trinity and worked with all of the Key Stage 2 classes. We first came across Urban Strides when they were performing at Young Voices last year and they were spotted by the choir. A year later than planned (due to the pandemic) they came […]
Today to mark Remembrance Day each class marked the occasion individually at 11am. In addition, for this afternoon’s whole school assembly, Miss Todd took Raven Class to the memorial in the Public Gardens and lead our daily virtual assembly from there. A wreath was laid, a minute’s silence held, and […]

On Friday, we completed our STEM Week with an exciting visit from Subject Revolution. KS1 and EYFS travelled around an amazing new world working together in practical maths challenges to help Prince Lunimo tidy up for the Queen. The children worked to pass through each maths challenge zone, undetected by the invading […]
In Year 3 we are designing and making a marble maze. Our ideas are based on the inside of one of the pyramids of Egypt.

The children in Year 3 have created these Christmassy images for you using 2Paint-A-Picture in Purple Mash.
Stonehenge is a real historical mystery. There are many theories about why and how it was built, but nobody really knows the answer. This afternoon Octopus Class enjoyed recreating Stonehenge from biscuits!
The Stone Age activities continued into the afternoon. Here are some of the photos of our time travellers learning all about life thousands of years ago.
We’ve stepped back in time and become hunter gatherers for the day… Will they survive? Watch this space! Half of the class are inside building a shelter in the style of ‘Stig of the Dump’. Meanwhile outside…all of the tribes are busy learning to track animals, grind oats, light fires, […]
Year 3 have spent the afternoon exploring ‘Holy Trinity Caves’. They have recreated artwork formed by Neolithic people during the early Stone Age.
Year 3 became archeologists this afternoon, investigating the diet of early Stone Age people. They delved into ‘poo’ and found fruits, nuts and seeds. Just look at their faeces!
