We are really looking forward to kicking off the new season in style since national property consultancy Lambert Smith Hampton offered to sponsor our new football kit!

The sponsorship is part of a wider partnership being established between the school and LSH, whose Cheese Lane offices are less than half a mile away. We are also looking forward to developing our links with LSH in order to bring children closer to the business world.

Peter Musgrove, director of office agency at LSH Bristol, said:

“We all enjoy working in the community and because Hannah More is the closest school to us, we thought it would be a great opportunity to see how we can help to make a difference to the young children.” .

“Sponsoring the football kit is just the first step in this. We hope this support will give the teams a small boost when the new season kicks off.”

On Monday 16th June Year 6 set off for a week of adventures in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Here's their news so far:

Dear Hannah More,
We are having fun at Manorbier youth hostel!
Yesterday we went to the beach, which was a very long walk away up and down hills! Falah didn't want to walk through the stinging nettles but eventually he did with Mr Cook to help him! At the beach, we made sandcastles and Zubair made a Stonehenge! Zubair and Sharmarka won the competition and won 5 tokens for Folly Farm each! Falah and Tyreeque's group came second and they also won tokens.
Later on, we drove to coasteering. People slept as they were so tired from a late night and a long walk! When we got there, we got into our wet suits (Sharmarka and Zubair tried to put these on backwards!) and then we headed to the water. The water was so salty! Zubair tried to eat some 'sea lettuce' but it wasn't very nice. We went into a lagoon and the water was really warm. We all climbed some rocks and then jumped into the water. Falah didn't want to do it until Mr Webster pushed him in! We really enjoyed it in the end!
After a long drive home, we had dinner and then showered. Before bed, we played a game called 'my grandma's underpants'. Aliyaan and Zubair won the game because they didn't laugh! Then we had a nice warm hot chocolate and then went to bed.
Today we are going to Folly Farm and Falah can't want to buy a cake for Miss Jenkins's birthday!

See you on Friday,
Lots of love,
Zubair, Falah and Sharmarka

Year 3 had a fantastic day in the Forest of Dean, with the support of Reading Buddies from our business friends Deloitte. Four buddies joined the class for the trip, which was all about exploring the Forest, hearing stories from storyteller Martin Maudsley, making our own creatures and more! Check out the video, pictures and  children's comments!

Camron: I liked everything on the trip but my favourite part was making a sea-serpent with three heads.
Finlay: I liked making my journey because when I got home it reminded me of all the fun things that happened.
Hassan: I liked the storyteller because he was funny and told us lots of stories.
Suheyla: I liked the journey stick because I could take it home and tell a story to my sister.
Ramla: I liked hunting for stuff to make my name and my journey stick.

Our Holiday Club will be open from Tuesday 27th - Friday 30th May, from 8.30am-6.00pm. Lots of exciting activities are planned! Children from several local schools come to the club and the feedback from our Easter club was really positive! Full details are available here.

Plans are now finalised for our May Holiday Club and it looks exciting! There's loads of activities planned including cooking, outdoor fun and art and craft. Full details available here.

We ran some summer playdays in 2018 and 2019, these will run again in 2020. We currently have some funding from Children in Need to enable us to do this. 

We have vacancies for 2 Parent Governors. Letters will be sent out on 6th January with full details. This is your chance to be more involved in the running of our school. All parents are welcome to apply.

We have linked up with Bristol Bike Project to run a seris of Bike Breakfasts. Children can come along and get their bikes serviced, or swap their old bike for a bigger size. And it's free! At our second Bike Breakfast on 3rd December, fifteen children swapped their bikes for new ones and lots more people got their bikes fixed! How fantastic! Our next Bike Breakfast is on Tuesday 14th January, 8-8.30am. Here are some pictures from our last event:

On Friday 15th we will be raising money for Children in Need. Wear your spottiest clothes, get your spots painted on at Breakfast Club, buy some yummy cakes after school... all in a good cause! We will ask children for a £1 donation if they choose to wear non-uniform clothes. Please get baking as well!
