• Ali Baba Raises the Roof

  Thu 11 Jul 2024

  Year 6 wowed us this week with their performance of Ali Baba and the Bongo Bandits. They sang and danced their hearts out to a packed audience of parents and friends. A huge well done to all of them for all the hard work they have put in and for the bravery of the soloists. Also a big shout out to 'Dan the Man' for stepping in at the last minute to play the huge role of Mustapha Widdle The Vizier. As a year 5 pupil this was not an easy task but he stepped up and gave a stunning performance.

• Summer of Discovery

  Fri 05 Jul 2024

  Our end of year Science Ambassador visit to Woolsthorpe Manor as part of the 'Summer of Discovery' activities was a fantastic experience for everyone!  We were delighted to be invited by the National Trust to review the amazing science activities inspired by Sir Isaac Newton in preparation for the launch of their summer holiday activities.   

   

  During our visit, we delved into different investigations focusing on light, force and motion, and gravity. The hands-on approach allowed the children to make predictions, conduct observations, perform tests, and draw conclusions. These activities were filled with awe and wonder, sparking curiosity and excitement.

   

  A special mention goes to the National Trust volunteer, who was simply amazing, ensuring that the experience was both educational and enjoyable. We are deeply grateful to the National Trust for providing this wonderful opportunity for the children, making science both fun and engaging. 

  

• Chicks are Full of Colour for Pattern Day

  Thu 04 Jul 2024

  The children came into school in their brightest, most patterned and colourful clothes to show how unique and special they are – just like Elmer.

  The children joined in with numerous Elmer pattern activities.  We started by ‘parading’ into Collective Worship.  Our ‘pattern parade’ was in front of the whole school! We painted and used the computer to create a colourful Elmer with a partner. We completed an ‘Elmer Drive’ (like a Beetle Drive but with elephants!), we retold the story of Elmer, copied and completed patterns and created our own using a variety of resources and we helped the Numberblocks solve pattern mysteries.

  The children were fabulous.  They joined in brilliantly and are, most definitely, ‘Positively Perfect Patterners!’

  

• Creating memories at "Create Day '24"

  Tue 02 Jul 2024

  Year 4 and Year 5 represented Colsterworth School beautifully for the Royal Ballet and Opera House Create Day at St. Wulfram’s Church in Grantham this week. They showed a great amount of perseverance whilst learning the intense choreography and their music smart skills were clearly visible during the singing practice. All of their hard work paid off for the final performance alongside children from other Grantham schools. Each child sang and danced to a high level, in front of a VIP audience as well as video cameras - even Mr. Willerton had a little dance! An enjoyable day all round, well done Year 4 and Year 5.
