Rhythms of the World project
Wed 20 Jun 2018The Rhythms of the World is a project in collaboration with Co-op Academy Priesthorpe which has been giving some of our Year 5 and 6 children an opportunity to learn drumming from different parts of the world. The children have been involved in this project over the course of the Summer term with a concert to showcase their skills on Thursday July 12th. The children have been learning samba and djembe drumming whilst children from Farfield have been learning dhol drumming and bhangra dancing. The children have learnt a huge variety of rhythms, how to play the instruments properly, lots of musical terms and also how to play together in a group, which is harder than you'd think! The children have been really dedicated and have worked really hard. Well done to all involved!

The Big Sing!
Wed 20 Jun 2018This afternoon we took a group of Key Stage Two children to Leeds Town Hall to take part in The Big Sing! Many different schools from the Leeds area were also part of this singing workshop and the sound of hundreds of children in this amazing place was just fabulous. The children learn a variety of songs, some with harmony parts, which really sounded great. The songs included Touch the Sky from Brave, Something Inside So Strong, and Count on Me by Bruno Mars, amongst others. The children put in lots of energy and behaved beautifully all afternoon. Well done to all the singers involved!

Sponsored Fun Run
Mon 21 May 2018We had great weather for this year's annual Springbank Fun Run as the sun was shining and there was barely a cloud in the sky! The fun run is all about enjoying physical activity and it certainly looked like everyone did just that. Each lap was approximately 1/3 of a mile. So many children ran/walked over 10 laps even many of the younger children. It was an amazing morning's work and some children would have happily continued into the afternoon had we let them! This is always such a fantastic whole school event and it was lovely to have so many parents and family members not only join us to support the children but also join in. Thank you to all families who have been collecting sponsorship money and have already delivered it to school. For those people still collecting sponsorship money, please could this be rounded up and sent in to school as soon as possible. Well done everybody!

Golden Owl Winners 2018
Tue 27 Mar 2018What a fantastic night we had at the Leeds Young Film Makers Golden Owls Awards at Leeds Town Hall. Everyone arrived looking extremely smart and enjoyed spending time with the variety of characters, including Storm Troopers, who were waiting to meet everybody at this red carpet event.
A group of eight children from across all KS2 classes had worked with Mr Bradshaw to produce a film called 'Trapped' which is a fictional story about a girl who spend too much time on her phone so ends up trapped inside the internet. Our film was shortlisted in the KS2/KS3 fiction category and I'm delighted to announce that we won! The children were thrilled as they went up onto the stage to receive their award. A big congratulations to our Golden Owls team who worked really hard to produce a great film.
