World Champ!

30th June 2022Fiona Wilson

Here at Marsden, we know that lots of children participate in clubs and activities outside of school and we love to hear all about it. We really enjoy celebrating successes together in class but we felt that this young lady deserved a special post having returned from the famous ballroom in Blackpool Tower as a WORLD CHAMPION!

Amelie is an amazing dancer and dedicates so much of her time practising for competitions. We were unbelievably proud of her when she returned from a weekend of intense competition with these amazing trophies and a fabulous story to share. Amelie competed against children from all around the world to be crowned as champion in her under 10 category. Well done Amelie! You’re a superstar!

Art Gallery

25th May 2022a hayward

This week we have had our hall transformed into the most amazing Art Gallery.

Every child contributed two pieces to the collection, consisting of a 2D creation and a 3D creation. I think we can all agree that the children have excelled themselves and should be very proud.

Thank you to all of the parents and family who came to share our children’s wonderful work.

Here is Under the Sea by our EYFS pupils, signed in British Sign Language:

“I visited your Art Gallery and was so impressed with the work the children had produced. The video of Early Years really made me smile, and it was a lovely experience to watch it underneath the tentacles of the jellyfish. I absolutely loved the Lilies by Year 5, they were so impactful. And Year 2’s designer plates would grace any table! Well done to all of the children for their hard work, and to the staff for putting on such a lovely display.” Amanda Hayward (Governor)

Here are some photographs of the event:

Year 5 Christmas Party

Year 5 had a perfect party to end the term. We enjoyed a quiz in class and had some lovely party food. Then we played our favourite games in the hall and we had surprise gifts waiting for us when we went back to class.

 

 

 

Winter Warmer- YR1

15th December 2021Ellie Kane

What a fantastic morning we had with our special visitor Sandra! We learnt how to be safe around fires and most importantly how to make the best s’mores ever! We enjoyed toasting our own marshmallows and putting them inside two chocolate biscuits to make a tasty treat! We were all super well behaved and we made fantastic memories. Then when in class, we created some Christmas ornaments to take home! We were so proud of the final results, they look amazing and we hope you like them too!
