What a fantastic Sports Day yesterday! A huge well done to all of our pupils for their enthusiasm, determination and teamwork throughout the day. Thank you to our staff, families and supporters who helped make the event such a success. We are incredibly proud of everyone who took part and embodied our school values so brilliantly. ✨

Jon Guthrie came into school last Tuesday to talk to KS2 about professionalism, sportsmanship and teamwork. Jon has been the team captain of Northampton Town since 2022 and first started his professional career at 16 playing for Pewsey Vale. “I was just a normal lad playing for Pewsey until I was 19, so it’s possible to achieve your dreams and I hope that if I’ve spoken to someone who wants to be a footballer, I hope I have made them realise that if you work hard you can go out there and do it.” We were so happy to welcome Jon to Pewsey Primary and wish him well for next season! ⚽

Following on from our previous post, here are some photos of Year 1 and Year 2 enjoying their visit to Kew Gardens 🪷

On Wednesday, Reception, Year 1 and 2 all went to Kew Gardens to learn about plants. We were all amazed at the size of some of the plants, and we loved walking amongst the tree-tops!

Last Wednesday, our Year 5 and 6 pupils enjoyed an unforgettable trip to London to watch The Lion King. The children were completely captivated from start to finish and were in awe of the incredible costumes, music, and performances. It was a truly magical experience that brought the story to life and created wonderful memories for everyone involved. ⭐🎵🦁

Last week, Year 5 had a great day going back in time to Ancient Greece. The children took part in a drama session, played archimedes maths puzzles, took part in a historic quiz and even competed in a mini olympics! Many thanks to all our parents and carers who helped the children really look the part in their fantastic costumes.

Well done to our Year 6's for completing their first day of SATs. They enjoyed a well deserved afternoon of baking cookies and making boxes to take them home in! Wishing you the best of luck for the rest of the week ⭐

We know that all children develop at different rates and that some children take longer to master new skills. Scan the QR code below for support in practising some of the skills needed for a positive and successful transition into school.

It's that time of year when we look forward to welcoming our new Reception children for taster sessions and then in September. To support your child in their transition to school, there are certain skills that you can practise with your child. https://fb.watch/GxVByXiwa7/

Year 5's Trip to the Living Rainforest. The children had a brilliant day exploring the wonders of the Amazon —discovering incredible wildlife, learning about this vital ecosystem, and even spotting a real sloth!
