To encourage creativity, we are holding an exciting art competition open to all pupils.

Theme: The Day Peace Returned
Entry fee: £1.50 (payable via ParentPay)
Submission deadline: Wednesday 7th May

We’d love children to create a piece of art that shows celebration, joy and the return of peace at the end of World War II. We can’t wait to see what you create!

Here are some ideas to inspire:

A painting of street parties

A collage of doves, flags and fireworks

A sculpture showing people coming together

A drawing of families reunited.

Entries should be bought into school on Wednesday 7th May, via your child’s class base, and will be judged by the School Council on Thursday 8th May! Prizes to be given during assembly on Friday 9th May.

We’re encouraging children to be as imaginative and expressive as they like!

Life Skills Week

During Life Skills Week, Base 10 explored different careers and spent time thinking about what we might like to do when we’re older. One of our activities included a budgeting lesson, where each group was given £15 and a leaflet of items from ASDA. Our task was to plan a party for our class, making sure we stayed within budget. The amazing winning team did such a great job that they were able to bring their party plan to life for Base 10!
