Mr. Peatfield and Miss Sandal from the High School Sports Partnership came in this Monday and worked with Class 3, helping them to learn games that they can go on to teach younger members of the school, encouraging team work, cooperation and leadership skills.











We have become amazing storytellers..!






Last week Classes 2 and 3 were lucky enough to have a storytelling workshop every morning. Chip, Gloria and Tilda from Snail Tales, started the week by telling an amazing story. Over the week we learned how to share and interprate our ideas into stories of our own. It was a real priviledge to have them in school and the children learned a lot and got a huge amount of enjoyment out of the week.

Welcome to Class One


Charsfield would like to welcome the new children to Class One.

The children have been taking part in a new initiative called 'Gym Trail' which aims to help focus their minds and prepare them for concentrating.

They have been getting better at the tasks each day.

Music in the Village Hall







On Wednesday the whole school, joined by Dennington were lucky enough to have Jonathan Beecher and Sarah Porter from Beecher Acoustics come and perform a concert. Jonathon performed on a 300 year old cello! Class One danced to the music and the older children were taken on a musical journey all round the world!

The pirates were seen painting the mast, dropping anchor and repairing the ship's steering wheel.

Welcome back!


Welcome back to all pupils and staff after the summer holidays. Staff were in on Wednesday for our Professional Development Day. We were joined, in the morning, by staff from Dennington, as we are hoping to work increasingly closely with our partner school as time goes on.
The children have been settling in over this Thursday and Wednesday. Its always so exciting moving up to a new class and getting to know your new routine. Even more excited are those new children starting in reception, we welcome them to Charsfield and are sure they will be very happy here.
We've already had brilliant news! Last term Class 3 entered a competition to draw a picture inspired by the sea side. We received the news only yesterday that one of our new year 6s, Brittany Kemp, has won! So well done Brittany. Her prize was a lovely folder full of fun activities and advice to help her become an even better artist!
