Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
We have some fantastic bakers in our school. Children from all classes and parents entered our bake off competition in the categories of best tasting cakes and the best decorated cakes and cupcakes.
All the cakes will be sold on Saturday in the village hall when FOLS create a the Litton tea room to raise money for the school.
We held our Fun Run on the Memorial field to raise money for new school iPads. The children dressed up in costumes and managed to run a mile. The Year 6 carried out a warm-up session at the beginning of the run and a warm-dowm afterwards. Thank you to everyone who took part in this event and for the adults / parents who encouraged the children on the sideline.
Junior Class enjoyed a visit from Kevin who is an engineer from the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre in Sheffield. Kevin will be judging our engineering competition in a few weeks!
The children made some pompom chicks to decorate the village tree.
We held our Easter Service in Litton Church to remember the significance of the Easter story. The Y6 children re-told the story by spelling out the word RISEN. The whole school had learnt a number of Easter hymns which we sang during the service. Some children played solo pieces during the service and Infant children sang Spring Chicken.
The History Van came to visit school and the children consolidated their learning about the Sheffield Flood. They were particularly interested in the story of Rollo the dog.
Well done to everyone who returned their paper plates. Some amazing entries.
We had a great day dressing up as our favourite characters, buddy reading and showing our paper plates.
We had a great time on our last day. We started the day with gem-panning. Then we carried out a river study by measuring the flow, depth and width of the river. This was great opportunity to stand in the river. Then we went river dipping to find out what living things can be found in the river. After a well deserved lunch, we had a fun time collecting logs for den building. Everyone had an enjoyable time on our residential and went home very tired. Congratulations to all the children for their impeccable behaviour and making it such a fun and happy experience.
We had a very busy day. We started the day by map reading and using grid references. Then we went out for a hike to Mam Tor using our map reading skills and compasses. We had a picnic near to Odin’s mine. Everyone loved the mud chute!!!
