Our living and learning theme for this half term is mental health. Today, we have been doing some mindful hearing in class, which gave us a chance to relax, be calm and reflect. Here is a website link to different mindfulness exercises for children.

Rhythms of the World
Year 5 had a great day at Wetherby High school, learning how to play rhythms of the world using lots of percussion instruments. At the end of the day, they performed alongside other primary schools to showcase what they had learnt.

Happy Easter!
Yesterday, we had a wonderful Easter service at St James’ church. The children spoke confidently and clearly, when telling us all about the Easter journey.
After school, we had lots of fun hunting for coloured eggs all around our school grounds and we had lots of winners on our Easter egg raffle. Thank you to the PTA and everybody who came to support the school.
Have a wonderful Easter weekend!
Bacon Butty Morning
Thank you to everybody who came to our bacon butty morning. Thank you to the PTA, who organised and cooked the sandwiches.
This event was sponsored by ‘Batman and Hoggin’ who provided all the sausages and bacon. Thank you for your support.
St James’s Got Talent!
Wow! We have seen some amazing talent at St James’ this afternoon: singing, dancing, gymnastics, comedians, skipping and much more. It was a fantastic way to end a week, where we have been recognising our talents for our Living and Learning theme. Well done to all the children who took part- you were marvellous!

Living and Learning: I can pay and receive compliments
This week, we’ve been paying and receiving compliments as part of our Living and Learning lesson. It made us feel really happy inside when our friends gave us a compliment.
