Tin Hats & Telegrams
2018 marks the centenary of the end of the Great War. After spending the last half term learning about the war in RE, history and English, Year 6 decided to make the Armistice the subject of their Christmas production.
Take a look at the fantastic achievements of some of the children this year so far in our school.
If you think you have a news story to be shared about one of our children or staff members, then simply email it to Mrs Dominey or Mrs Foster, we always enjoy celebrating well deserved successes.

This year, I wanted to do something before Christmas to help other people and so I decided to do a collection for Poole food bank. The food bank helps give food to people who can't afford to feed their family or themselves.
The KS2 choir have been out and about singing Christmas songs – we performed at the school Fayre, Castle Farm Care Home and Tescos singing under the Christmas tree, which was lovely.
This half term, our Year 5/6 LMPS Netball Team have begun their league matches, against schools across Poole, Bournemouth and Dorset. They will have 6 League matches to play in total.

This Autumn, some children were very lucky to attend a series of cross country races. Mr Noyce, Mrs. Markham and Mrs. Winkworth kindly accompanied us to these races. They not only accompanied us, they cheered us on enthusiastically.

This year we have again been lucky enough to make decorations for the Christmas tree in St Mary's Church in the village.
It was great to see so many happy faces at our Christmas Fayre this year- I don’t think I have ever seen it so busy!
