RE – The Story of Palm Sunday

In RE this half term we are thinking about ‘Why is Easter important to Christians?’. This week we have been learning about the story of Palm Sunday and what the word Salvation means. We acted out the story in groups and thought about how it links to salvation.

Tennis Festival @ Shrewsbury Club

A group of Year 5/6 children who participated in tennis clubs last year were given the opportunity to attend a tennis festival at The Shrewsbury Club. Not only did they get the chance to play tennis, they were also able to watch some of the women’s tennis championships that were taking place at the venue last week. in fact, last year the Wimbledon women’s winner played at the Shrewsbury event so fingers crossed the same happens this year! A special thank you to Mr Aspinall for giving up his time to support the trip for the day. They had a brilliant time!
