Welcome to Goat Lees Primary School

For our longer pieces of writing, we try to ensure a purpose for the children's writing. This might be for display, to share their work with other children and adults, or even to send their work to someone. This term, Year 6 have written and published their own story books based on the book 'Flood'  by Alvaro Villa. The children knew they would be sharing this story with the children in Year 4. It was lovely to see the Year 4 children so engrossed with their stories and Year 6 being very proud of their achievements. 

Year 6 have been running their 'Waste not, want project' this term. This is to try and reduce the amount of food and plastics from going to landfill sites. If you have any food that you are not going to use, please bring it into school so someone else might be able to make use of it. We have also started branching out to other things such as toys, books and school uniform. If we have anything available, we will be open on Monday and Friday. Thank you for your support.

Billy Class had such a fun time during our French Day at school. They found out about the Eiffel Tower, learnt the colours of the rainbow (in French) and got to taste some pain au choocolat - yum! They also enjoyed their lunch of croque monsieur.

Alpine Class went to visit Godinton House to learn all about the importance of bees. They looked amazing dressed in black and yellow and certainly buzzed about the gardens! The children made seed bombs which they will plant in school, when they are ready. We also learnt how bees help to pollinate so many fruits and vegetable which we love to eat. In the afternoon, the chidlren tried four different types of honey back in school and practised being bees! Thank you to Helen at Godinton House who led some fantastic activities for us.
