Thank you for the wonderful entries for the competition to design our CD cover. It was very difficult for our judging panel to choose just two winners because the standard was so high. Congratulations to Kitija Ivanova for designing the winning front cover and to Bonnie Williams-Quinn for designing the winning inside cover. A special commendation also to Evita Zeberga, Laurynas Balsys, Macey Irwing, Heidi Rogers, Phoebe Baines , Isabelle Blackwell Price and Amelia Hindley who all made it to the final nine.
Sumdog Competition! We havethentered the Lancashire Sumdog Competition which runs from Friday 30th November to Friday 6 December for Year 1-Year 6. We usually do really well in this contest and it would be fantastic to see lots our children taking part and possibly even featuring on the daily leader boards for individuals and classes. Every child who answers over 100 questions will receive an item for their Sumdog house as well as being able to win certificates and prizes for our school. Points are based on accuracy of answers rather than the most questions answered. If your child is unsure of their Sumdog login details, please speak to their class teacher. Good luck!
