The Red Sun
Mon 16 Oct 2017Did you wake up to a red sun recently or see a strange red colour to the sky on your lunch break or as you came to school? Many people in England reported the phenomenon on Monday 16th - and it appears to have been caused by Hurricane Ophelia. The unusual phenomenon has been seen across the country, starting in the west of the country before sweeping across to the Capital. Some areas have been forced to turn on street lights in the middle of the day as the dust slightly blocked out the sun and caused the sky to appear red. -

Year 3 and 4 Football Festival
Thu 28 Sep 2017Longfleet took ten keen footballers to Carter Community School to participate in a 7 a side festival, where we played against teams from Hamworthy, Baden Powell and Ocean Academy. After a disappointing start against Baden Powell B, losing 3-0 against a strong team, our results improved dramatically. A 2-0 win against Baden Powell A was followed by score draws against the two Hamworthy teams and Ocean Academy. The footballers showed improved touch and passing as the games progressed, and scored excellent goals through William W and George V. A big thank you to the parents who came along to support. There will be many more games in the future as we look to progress to having at least two Year 3/4 teams.

House Day
Thu 28 Sep 2017There was much excitement around school today as we held a House Day. The children spent the day with their fellow House members completing a rotation of musical, sporting and creative tasks. They also had the chance to listen to the prospective House and Vice Captains give their speeches. Each pupil then had the opportunity to vote and the Captains were duly elected for the year. Congratulations to everyone who was nominated for the aspiration they demonstrated and well done to those that were voted into office.

Go WILD for Reading!
Mon 18 Sep 2017On Friday, Key Stage One went absolutely WILD for reading!
After a calm morning worship was suddenly interrupted by two WILD jungle animals dancing to 'I like to move it, move it', the children were buzzing with excitement to complete the 6 reading challenges left for them!
They set about reciting poetry, reading in the willow dome, performing stories, illustrating and much, much more...with each task leading them to an anagram letter. Once all 6 challenges were complete, the children spelt out the words: GO WILD!
This launched our brand new reading reward scheme for Key Stage One, where pupils have the chance to collect WILD animal badges to celebrate their reading successes. The more they read, the more badges they earn...we hope they have brilliant fun going WILD for reading!
