Operation Christmas Child Appeal


Many thanks to everyone who supported the Operation Christmas Child Shoe Box appeal. We received over 80 boxes from families. This is an amazing response. All the boxes were delivered to our local drop off point last week and will be dispatched to their destinations in time for Christmas. Thank you again!

Celebration assembly

The whole school will gather together on Monday afternoon to share all that they have been doing during our 'One World Month' - it promises to be a great afternoon!

Themed lunch - Indian

We all enjoyed a fab Indian lunch in school on Friday.
This was the final of the four meals we have shared from around the world in school. The curry was delicious and lots of sandwich children but something from India in their packed lunch.

Bollywood dancing

Well done to everyone in KS1 for their fantastic Bollywood music morning last Tuesday.
Each class had the chance to learn special steps and a dance routine in a Bollywood style.
Pics and Videos will be on the life channel shortly.

Themed lunches - American and Italian




We have been lucky enough to have themed lunches at school both last Friday and the Friday before. Cook has served up fab cuisine from the USA and also from Italy (yum,yum garlic bread!). What will this week's themed lunch be?

International Evening


On Thursday 2nd July we celebrated our International Evening at school. We firstly shared cuisines from all around the world, kindly brought in by many parents. It was great to eat new dishes and share food from lots of different countries.

After this, the hall was set up for an evening show-casing talent with an international flavour. This included Irish dancing, our polish singing groups, performances from guitar and recorder groups and choir, to mention but a few. It was a very successful evening - look at the life channel for videos of the evening and read the article all about it in this week's Harp!

Cooking at Archbishop Ilsley


On Thursday 2nd July children from year 5 and year 4 had the chance to use the great cooking facilities at Archbishop Ilsley.

Year 4 made quiche and Year 5 made Irish soda bread. Both of these were brought back to school and eaten at our taste testing of 'food throughout the world' at our International evening. Both were delicious!
