Acorn Awards (earning House Points with two pupils chosen per class; awarded by teachers for class-based work / learning attitudes):

George – For writing recognition: this week, we had a visitor in school who spent time looking at the Year 6 writing. George’s work was commended for being such a high standard – one of the best our visitor had EVER seen! Well done George, what a star you are.

Mia– Mr Fields, the Year 6 teacher from Bomere Heath, spent time sharing books with Miss Whit this week. Just from her books, Mr Fields said he could tell how hard Mia works and the effort she gives each day. Well done Mia!

Imogen – for a super attitude – positive, friendly and fun!

Aoife – for always having a positive attitude

Caitlyn – a great attitude to work this week
