***SHINE Week***

What a busy week!
It's been Shine Week at school with lots of activities to celebrate our children's talents and achievements including our annual:
*Brilliant Year 5 and 6 production
*Fun FS and KS1 and KS2 Sports Days
(See blog posts below)
as well as:
*Dance Workshops and Art Gallery visits at Cornerstone Arts Centre
*Rousing Year 5 and 6 Brass Assemblies



*Walls of Talents on display in each class (celebrating the children's extra-curricular achievements)



And still to come tomorrow:
*Exhibition of Shine Boards of all the children's best work in the Courtyard - come see!
*Sports Awards Assembly (for children only due to space)
*School Gardening Competition (judged and prizes awarded by the Town Mayor-Phil Hayward; for children only due to space.)





Lewis in Y4 said of the Cornerstone visit:
"It was brilliant! We could make up our own dances and the paintings (in the 'Coast' Exhibition) were so realistic."








The children visiting Cornerstone also got to view our Y6 Exhibition of artwork in the Chalk room behind the reception.  The Y6s produced a range of art, in collaboration with children in our Chinese partner school, based around the towns and countryside of Didcot and Changsha, to better understand each other's countries and cultures. 
Parents and public are very welcome to visit too!






Other Shine Week activities have included the children showing off their culinary talents and baking goodies and making drinks to share with their classmates and adults!
