Manor Beach Netball Team

Manor Beach tree planting for Eco Week

Manor Beach has had another successful term celebrating a range of achievements, one exciting highlight being the winning of both the Netball league and Rally. 

The team played extremely well and were recognised for their skill and sporting nature.  They are now excited to be representing Manor Beach as they play teams in other areas.  A team of children also took part in the Cross Country event.  Although we did not win as a team, they all put in maximum effort and one of our Yr 6 boys came third.  Fantastic.

We also had a successful book week where children completed a range of activities from enjoying stories, writing book reviews and designing wanted posters for their favourite characters to name just a few.  The week ended with children coming to school in their pyjamas and sharing their favourite bedtime stories. 

In March, school took part in World Maths Day challenges.  This was an opportunity for children of all ages to compete in maths challenges on the internet with children from all around the world.  Children worked hard practising for the event.  The children with the 3 highest scores on the day were presented with certificates.  Well done to all the children who took part.

Grandparent’s day was another successful event, where grandparents thoroughly enjoyed listening to poems, songs and looking at pictures the children had painted of them. 

Our musical achievements have also been rewarded this term with the school being awarded the Silver Sing Up award.  This reflects the hard work the staff and children have put in and our commitment as a school to music.

Currently the school is working on an eco project and the Spring term has seen the planting of trees around the edge of the school field by our Yr 5 children.  The children showed enthusiasm towards the project and are looking forward to the next part.

The term ended with our Easter celebrations.  What a great display of Easter bonnets, eggs and baskets!  It has been a busy term and we look forward to the challenges and achievements of the summer term.
