🎡 Year 6 brought the Goose Fair to Huntingdon today!
The children got into the Goose Fair spirit by making some delicious fairground treats and learning more about this brilliant Nottingham tradition.
And, of course, no Goose Fair celebration would be complete without meeting a very special goose! 🪿
What a fun way to celebrate a piece of our city’s history!

Year 1 had a lovely walk around our local area.
The children enjoyed exploring their community, spotting familiar places and learning more about the area around our school. What a wonderful way to take learning beyond the classroom! ✨

🌟 A huge congratulations to Darren Coates! 🌟
Today, we were delighted to welcome Darren to our school and celebrate his incredible achievement of completing a half marathon and raising an amazing £9,000 for our children. 🏃♂️💚
