PC Rob talks about anti social behaviour

On the 8th May PC Rob Thomas came in to speak about anti social behaviour. We learnt about what to do and what not to do in a place for the community. We drew a park that had to appeal to all the community; that means children, adults, babies, elderly people, teenagers and pets. Once we had drawn the park we went through some of the anti social things that would happen to it and he told us some stories about what he'd seen as a policeman.  Then we swapped over parks and put post-it notes on things we could do to ruin their park with anti social behaviour. Then PC Rob Thomas showed us some real life pictures of anti social behaviour.

Golf Festival

Year 5 took part in a golf festival at the Maritime Astro Turf on 26th April.
The pupils participated in a variety of activities related to golf. The children practised their putting and striking skills and played lots of competitions against each other. Hopefully a few of the children will take up golf in the future.
