Christmas Shoebox Appeal
November 14th, 2022
Our GIFT team led the Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Appeal following a visit from Mrs Williams. They decided to ask each class to bring in certain items to donate towards the shoeboxes and then spent their lunchtime packing the boxes ready for collection.
A huge thank you to everyone who donated items and filled shoeboxes, they certainly will make a difference to some children’s lives this Christmas.

Harvest Prayer Station
October 24th, 2022
The GIFT team have set up a new prayer station for harvest time. Everyone is invited to draw a picture of their favourite fruit or vegetable in the basket whilst giving thanks for the harvest, for all our food and those that provide the food for us, whilst remembering those who go hungry so that they may know that they are not forgotten.
Dear God,
We thank you for the celebration of harvest.
Thank you for our food and the friends and family we have to share it with.
Thank you for the rain, the soil, the sun and the farmers and fisherman who provide food for us to eat.
Help us to remember to always say thank you and be grateful for all that we have.
Help us to be generous and share what we have with others, taking time to help and pray for those who are less fortunate than ourselves.
Amen

We celebrated the Queen’s platinum jubilee by making and designing our own crowns; red, white and blue pom-pom shakers, paper chains and bunting. We also wore red, white and blue clothing. We joined together as a whole school with our families for a tea party which included a jubilee quiz, cakes and ice lollies! A great time was had by all.

Beach Clean & Litter Pick
June 10th, 2022
Following a break due to COVID restrictions our eco-committee has been back up and running since September 2021 and working behind the scenes on various new initatives as we work towards becoming a greener school.
The first of these initiatives to come to fruition was a litter pick and beach clean in Brixham on a sunny saturday in April. !4 children and their grown ups joined us and we collected 5 black sacks worth of rubbish and enjoyed a celebratory drink and biscuit on the beach afterwards. A huge thank you to all who came to join us.
The following week during a lunch playtime the eco-committe completed a litter pick around our school grounds. #careforourcommonhome

GIFT Team
June 10th, 2022
Our school GIFT (growing in faith together) team have been hard at work since they applied and were appointed to their positions. We came together and discussed various ideas as to how we could grow the faith in our school and community, creating an action plan for the next term. First on their list was to honour our mothers in some way as Mothering Sunday was approaching, they created flower posies and held a special celebration assembly, which was beautiful. Their second action was to create a prayer station outside the hall for all to access. The prayer station will be updated each month with a different theme, the children decided that this first month our prayers should go to the people of the Ukraine.
