Year 4 had a fantastic day learning about the Saxons. Our workshop was lead by a fantastic modern day Saxon who gave us a deep insight to Saxon life including lots of blood and gore! We thoroughly enjoyed it!

Class 6 Summer Learn Along Day
Class 6 enjoyed working collaboratively looking at pictures to learn what life was like for the Victorians.
We’ve said goodbye to the chicks…
The chicks have left us today and are being re-homed by a colleague of one of our parents. Earlier on today, we took them out onto the field to let them have have a breath of fresh air – as you can see, there was no chance of any escaping!

School Sports Day
It is our School Sports Day on Wednesday 22nd June and fingers crossed but the forecast looks glorious. If there are any parents able to help with any of the bases that would be most appreciated.
For the first time, we are also including a Race for Life for Cancer Research, when we will be inviting parents and children to join us in the Oglethorpe Mile at 12:30. We will of course be shaking our buckets on the day but if you prefer to donate on-line (and add in the Gift-Aid) here is the link: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/the-james-oglethorpe-primary-school23-06-2016

Year 3/4 Cream Tea
Year 3/4 had an enjoyable afternoon learning about the etiquette and traditions of afternoon tea.
Cream Tea
How do you have yours? Cream first then jam, or jam and then cream? These were the dilemnas facing year 5 and 6 this afternoon as they sat down to a delicious cream tea. We made the scones this morning and enjoyed a cream tea washed down with a cup of tea in traditional British Fashion. As you can see, some of us were practising our royal wave too! A wonderful way for us to start this week of British Celebrations.
Chick Hatching
It’s that exciting – or should that be eggciting, time of year. Late this afternoon, our eggs and incubator arrived and we will be watching the chicks hatch. This is such an awe-inspiring experience and we are very grateful to the PA for funding this opportunity. The chicks should start hatching tomorrow with the majority hatching on Wednesday and Thursday.
They will remain with us for 10 days and if anyone would like to re home them afterwards please contact Mrs Sewell.
