Head Teachers blog w/c 20th January
What a fantastic week we have had. On Tuesday Mrs Bills took a group of year 4 and 5s to Southwell to attend a conference all about modern slavery. We have come back full of ideas to share with the rest of the school all about how we can act to change the world and make a difference to reducing slavery in 2020.
This Wednesday we had a fantastic university day- full of all sorts of different activites. From chain mail, origami, animation, painting with input from a guest artist, cricket, gardening, science experiments, cooking...the list goes on and on. It was so much fun and I know staff and pupils really enjoyed it! There are lots of pictures on our twitter account so please do have a look https://twitter.com/gunthorpecofeps
