Meldreth Primary School www.meldreth.cambs.sch.uk Heading into the final half term of this year, there is much to feel thankful for and excited about. We are all thrilled to see our new swimming pool in action and to see swimming lessons for all classes restart. Classes across the school have also been taking part in exciting events, from art galleries to auditions. Numerous sporting events have taken place, from cricket to Quad Kids and we are looking forward to our first sports day with parents/carers since 2019. Please enjoy reading about a few of the many great things we have been up to at Meldreth Primary School this month. Swimming Pool Our brand new swimming pool is now in action, thanks to the fundraising efforts of the PTA and the generosity of our many sponsors and supporters. Puffin Class took their first swimming lesson this week and had an absolutely fantastic time! We look forward to welcoming Years 1 - 4 back to their swimming lessons in school over the next few weeks, whilst Years 5 and 6 have been lucky enough to visit Melbourn Village College for their swimming lessons at the college swimming pool. [See pages 18-19 for more information and photographs.] Sporting News A group of KS2 pupils attended the Cambridgeshire County Cricket Tournament at Foxton, achieving a very impressive second place in our group. Another group of pupils attended the Quad Kids Athletic Competition at Wilberforce Road this month. They were praised for the determination and came a strong 11th place in the competition.
