It is amazing when children want to explore their own interests and passions and develop them in school. This is just what happened when a member of our school was concerned about littering and made a fantastic poster to display outside.
On 6th June Years 5 and 6 headed to the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham to take on 7 schools in a series of track and field events. The children gave their best shot at jumping, throwing and running events and didn’t leave empty handed. After many medals of the podium for running Cockshutt came 3rd overall. What an achievement for our school. Well done Cockshutt.
As Year 6 head into their final term here at Cockshutt we are excited about what the future holds for them. We have a busy and exciting term ahead and look forward to making their final weeks in primary school very memorable.
Ash Class have really made the most of the beautiful sunshine we’ve been having this week. We took our reading for pleasure session outdoors, shared stories together and got stuck into a good book. Some children even read their books in a tree!
The children in year 5 and 6 have been learning about plastic pollution. They have been very surprised by the damage this is causing to the environment. They wanted to help in some way, so decided to organise a litter pick to look after our local environment. What an amazing idea.
We had a visit today from Paul from Maths Whizz. He came to present some very special gold certificates to children who Maths Whizz have recognised for super effort. Well done.
This week we welcomed Pro-Strike. The children were amazing and had some excellent kicks and some very fast kicks were recorded. Tom will be in super soon with the prizes but int he meantime I hope you enjoy some pictures of the day and spot some future footy stars maybe!
We were very honoured to have been asked to form a choir to perform for the recent Princess Anne visit to Ellesmere. The children were excited and nervous for this event, however they sang beautifully and we are very proud of how well they represented the school.
Thank you to everyone who attended our Easter Service today. The children were fantastic performing their poems and readings and their singing was amazing.
Thank you to our amazing PTA for organising another successful Easter Bingo event. It was lovely to see so many of our families and members of the community there to support the school. A total of £629 was raised.
