St Pius X Catholic Primary School

Despite the dreary weather, Year 2 had a fun time at the Mini Games today, competing against other Year 2 children from local schools. After the opening parade, children participated in a rang of events including running, throwing, dancing and horseracing! Well done Year 2!

 Today Year 2 had fun experimenting with our Loti-Bots! We talked about how coding is used in lots of everyday things, including traffic lights, mobile phones and video games. Then they had a try at giving instructions to make the Loti-Bots move, light up, spin and make noises! It was sometimes difficult  and frustrating to overcome challenges (fixing bugs, reprogramming to get the code right) but they persevered and even decided to race their robots!

Year 5 are selling our brilliant handmade badges!  Just a few of our brilliant designs! We have created some vibrant and bright badges to sell at exhibition evening on Monday 7th July!  These badges are not to be missed!  We have been working hard on our Pilgrim of Hope project to raise money for 'Show racism the red card' and we need your help to finish off our project!  Small badges are only 30p - what a bargain!  Medium badges are 50p - a real steal!  Large badges are £1 - hard to miss!  Do not miss your chance to purchase these limited edition badges - they are one of a kind. First come, first served!  Everyone in school will be wearing them - don't miss out!  Please note - badges will be sold for cash only so please bring your coins along. We have very limited amounts of change.  (Blog written by Year 5)

  Mini Vinnies - Fundraiser for St Vincent De Paul Society Yesterday, after school we held a mini fundraiser to raise funds for the St Vincent De Paul Society and all the good work they do.   As the weather had been so beautiful and hot we decided to sell some ice lollies.  We were very excited we had ice rockets and strawberry cream ice lollies to sell.  We were very busy! We sold many of our ice lollies and we hope to sell the rest after school today.  We hope to raise £40 in total.  We were treated to an ice lolly at the end for all our hard work!! Yummy!!
