May 2021- Rainbow Value Day- Friendship- The Jubilee
We enjoyed a super Jubilee Day, icing crown biscuits, making crowns, finding lost Corgi's and learning to sing the National Anthem.
The children worked in Jewel groups and demonstrated wonderful friendship, kindness and co-operation- So many of our Rainbow Values!
We cheered the Jubilee torch as it travelled through Worlingworth.
The day culminated in a special Jubilee Collective Worship and the singing of our Jubilee Song.
May 2021- Prayer Day
Our special Prayer Day last week was a success, with all the children learning the actions for the Lord’s Prayer and engaging in different activities to help understand the meaning of lines in the prayer. The Year 6s worked hard to rejuvenate the Reflective Garden and after four wheelbarrows of weeds, the erection of a mirror, displaying of prayers written by the children and the planting of some kindly donated plants it has become a wonderful prayer and quiet space for the children to use.
Rainbow Value Day- Care and the Community & Kindness
We spent the day learning about the Rainbow Value of Kindness and the Curriculum Cog of Care and the Community.
In our House groups, we enjoyed a variety of engaging and exciting activities including:
- Making a kindness paper chain,
- Making bird seed treats
- Litter picking
- Making Pots of Kindness
- Learning the Creation Story
- Designing a Creation mural
- Making bees- as bees work together as a big community.
All the children showed how kind and caring they can be, and learnt about how we can care for our environment and community.
A big well done to Sam and Anesu for showing fantastic kindness and community spirit.

March 2021- Pirate Week!
Worlingworth CEVC Primary School have welcomed their children back to school with an exciting and engaging Pirate Week!
Like all other Primary Schools in England, the pupils at Worlingworth CEVC Primary School have been learning online all term and felt that the return to school needed to be memorable.
The children enjoyed a special theme week to welcome them all back to school. We came into school to find a Pirate area had been created on the playground, complete with a desert island and a Pirate Plank! Special 'Pirate' activities have re-engaged the children with face to face learning and brought the whole school community back together. Amongst other Pirate lessons, pupils have been learning sea shanties, designing flags, given each other new Pirate names, and making pirate ships. Pirate books have taken centre stage and the pupils and staff even dressed up as Pirates as part of their slightly delayed book week celebrations.
The week culminated in an exciting Pirate treasure hunt around the village for pupils to enjoy with their families.

Jupiter Class-Greek Homework Project- March 2020
Lots of parents and children enjoyed coming into school to see our key stage two exhibition of all their wonderful homework on the Ancient Greeks. There was a huge variety of exhibits to admire which demonstrated excellent research and showed that lots of fun had been had with family members too.
Jupiter Class- Fitzwilliam Museum- March 2020
Jupiter Class set off to explore the delights of this museum as part of their topic work on the life of the Ancient Greeks. They were able to see actual artefacts from the Ancient Greek period of history, including pots and statues of the Gods that we had been learning about in school! The children were able to extend their learning further and use their sketching skills to observe and draw a variety of objects in the Greek gallery. From coffins to mirrors to masks to mosaics - they were wowed by it all and had plenty of questions to ask and lots of answers to give. We especially all appreciated the architecture of the museum with its giant columns that resemble a Greek temple. Well done Jupiter Class for behaving so brilliantly - it was a fantastic day!
Mercury Class- March 2020
The children in Mercury class have been extremely busy learning about Space and the Solar system this term. They have been creating the constellations of the stars, making up space stories in our role play rocket, playing percussion to represent the different planets, sewing finger puppet aliens as well as lots of other space themed reading, writing and maths activities.
Saturn Class- February 2020
Amazing Starry Night pictures from Saturn Class!
Jupiter Class- February 2020
As artists..
This term our pupils in Jupiter Class have been learning about proportion and the techniques needed to draw figures more accurately. After practising their new knowledge they demonstrated their skill by drawing a bold but accurate design on their Greek Pots. The results are fantastic! Their finished artwork is displayed in the corridor near the school entrance so do pop by and take a look next time you are in school.
As scientists..
Neurological sparks have been omitted as the children grappled this term to learn about how electricity is produced, how it travels through a circuit and how different components can be controlled by switches and circuit layouts. They have investigated the influence of adjusting variables such as the length of wire or amounts of volts on the strength of light from a bulb or noise from a buzzer, combining methodical recording of circuit diagrams with careful observations so they can draw scientific conclusions. Children in Years 5 and 6 have found out why parallel circuits are more successful than series circuits and discovered how electricity can be produced using copper, zinc and the juices of a lemon!
As writers..
The fantastic literary feast of Greek Myths, Gods and Heroes has provided food for the imagination and pencil this half-term in Jupiter Class. There has been some outstanding creative writing with retelling of myths, setting and character descriptions and writing from Odysseus' point of view. The rich language of the Ancient Greek world has been transported into the writing of children in Years 5 and 6 with vivid descriptions of Odysseus arriving at the Land of The Dead , whilst the Stars enjoyed expanding their nouns to describe Medusa and the three grey, hags that Perseus meets on the way. The school was 'on air' for a week with the Moons writing first a play and then radio script to retell parts of the Adventures of Odysseus. Who would have thought so many sound effects could be created with a whiteboard, dictionary and bowl of water?! It was hugely enjoyable and the children were able to talk about the challenges of putting a play on the radio compared to the stage.
As historians and geographers ...
The children have begun to learn about what Greece is like and what life was like in Ancient Greece. They know whether they would have preferred to live in Athens or Sparta and have re-enacted Spartan battle tactics and training on the playground - you may have heard them coming!
It is great to see the children energised by their special homework project on the Ancient Greeks and we are really looking forward to sharing and celebrating all their learning at home next term. Don't forget we are holding an exhibition of all their work on Friday 6th March so come in and see what you can learn too!
Mercury Class- January 2020
In Mercury class, the children have begun their topic on ‘light and dark’ and have been enjoying lots of play based learning. We have been mastering numbers to 20 and Reception have been problem solving with addition, subtraction and even division, all through our story sessions. For example, we have been sharing 12 ‘worms’ equally with the three owl babies, using tweezer owl beaks and string worms.
We have made long playdough worms and measured them in cm to see who had made the longest. So much fun!
We have been weighing and comparing space toys and props and putting planets into size order. The children have even made 2d shape rockets and funny aliens.
The children have also been exploring spaghetti in paint and finding out how to mix dark and light colours using different amounts of paint. We have learnt so much about ‘the solar system’ and Reception are now beginning to write their own sentences about the different planets for our space display board.
Football Tournament- November 2019
Worlingworth football did us proud in working together as a team, creating and following tactical ideas and being great role models. We worked really hard to defend and attack during our matches. It paid off as we won our first game! We did take a hit when up against Thorndon but that was okay, we celebrated their victory with a round of applause. We later played two more brilliant games with 5 goals being scored in total and I lost count of how many goals our goalkeepers saved. We came third overall in our heat and Miss Owen was so proud of our football team's attitudes and application of skill, talent and passion towards the sport. Well done Worly!!

Remembrance Afternoon Tea- November 2019
The children, parents and members of the community joined together to remember all those who fought and died in wars in the past and in present conflicts. The children shared their learning about the reasons people wear poppies and writing was read out by members of Jupiter Class on the themes of peace and what it was like to be a soldier in the trenches during the First World War. A one minute silence was led by Year 6 pupils before a prayer on reflecting on previous bravery and bringing peace to our world. The Friends then served a wonderful range of homemade cakes (thanks to the WI for their contributions) and tea and coffee for all to enjoy. In total, £56.00 was raised in donations for the Royal British Legion so thank you to all those who generously donated.
Jupiter Class Dragon's Den- October 2019
Worly Dragon's Den TV production came to life through an original Jupiter Class assembly. We had jobs from the camera men, sound assistants, presenters, inventors and the Dragons themselves, portrayed in a great end of the first half term class assembly.
Really well rehearsed and produced production Jupiter Class well done to all involved!
And as Jupiter Class said in their Class assembly - who knows, maybe the next future famous inventor is someone learning in our school right now! Watch out future.... Worly inventors are on their way!!!
Silver Sports Award- September 2019
This Year Worlingworth Primary have been awarded the Silver Sports Award!
This is due to the dedication of; the children, pupil sports ambassadors and the staff enthusiastically supporting PE, healthy and active life styles and being great role models to our community. We try our very best to encourage activity within school, sportsmanship, leadership within our young sports ambassadors and mini-sports ambassadors, enter many, many competitions throughout the key stages in and out of school grounds and work really hard in our PE lessons. We have been fortunate enough to have experts, in their field, come to teach at our school and our resources for teaching PE and supporting sports is ever growing. Well done Worly, we did amazinly well this year! Bring on next year!

Jupiter Class- Food Tech- September 2019
Our Harvest learning led us to think about the fruits and vegetables grown at Harvest time across the curriculum. So we created TWO scrumptious apple cakes with apples grown from our very own school garden! We measured, mixed, baked and tasted...It was DELICIOUS!
Jupiter Class- Harvest- September 2019
We continued to think of the Harvest festival and considered this in our RE learning. We looked at how a harvest pumpkin is like a Christian. How God gives Christians the gift of sight, smell and taste of this world (carving of eyes, nose and mouth) The freedom to think for ourselves (carving of the lid and de-seeding) and the opportunity to share our light and goodness with others (placing a lit candle inside the carved pumpkin). We enjoyed thinking of the literal actions of pumpkin carving and linking it to the Christian faith.

Jupiter Class- Harvest- September 2019
This week we have been focussing on the up and coming festival of Harvest and the beginning of the Autumn season. Jupiter have written some lovely poems about the falling of leaves giving the leaves personality and writing with personification, rhyme, syllable patterns and beats. We then printed leaves around the outside to give a beautiful boarder of colourful leaves.

Jupiter Portraits- September 2019
We have been busy imagining what Aliens may look like if they lived on Jupiter. We made origami aliens and created paintings in the style of selfies. We looked art artists that used bold, contrasting colours and strong black lines as inspiration to create our pieces. We thought about interesting alien features including; multiple eyes, antennae, teeth, tongues and added extras. We hope you enjoy our Jupiter Alien Origami and Selfies.

Bawdsey- Year 4 & 5- September 2019
The children have all had a fantastic afternoon . When we arrived, the children were amazed to be staying in a Hogwarts type castle! After lunch we met our instructors and completed the challenge trail - climbing, crawling, swinging and rolling through obstacles and working together to collect the treasure. Then , after battling with our harnesses, we had to be brave and encourage ourselves to climb up Jacob’s ladder. Everyone did really well and learnt how to use ropes to help lower and hold each other. It was much higher than it looked!
Dinner was delicious sausage and mash, veg sausages or a yummy chicken curry and our children seemed happy to eat extra fruit , bread and salad too before tucking into fresh doughnuts . Beds have been made and teddies and books out ready for later. Off to Wacky Races now before hopefully a good night’s sleep!
Outstanding Tea Party- July 2019
We all had lots of fun celebrating achieving 'Outstanding' in our recent Ofsted inspection. :)
Hollowford Day 4- July 2019
Another great night sleep lead to the last of our activity adventures today!
Chiedza and May N went caving; crawling into small spaces and turning off head torches to see how dark the cave really was...PITCH BLACK! Jack, Lillie and Kyra faced their fears on the high ropes, climbing up tall ladders, walking across beams and trying to hang upside down like spider man. May F and Jess did amazing in weaseling in, out, through and over rock faces and small spaces. Miss Owen tried to keep up with her 'slug-like' movements wiggling through small gaps in the rocks, much to the support, but also laughter, of the group.
This evening was the infamous, military precision, room inspections!!! BOTH Worly rooms improved their cleanliness and presentation; beds made perfectly, shoes in neat rows, hoodies in alphabetical order and the inspectors were impressed. Hollowford's Got Talent show saw a huge variety of talent within our group and we were immensely proud of all those that entered. Our very own Lillie showed her talented voice with confidence and clarity - really beautiful!! Well done!
All packed and ready to go tomorrow...time for bed
What a fun filled adventure it has been!
See you all tomorrow
Hollowford Day 3- July 2019
After a good night's sleep and a tummy full of yummy breakfast, Worlingworth made the 2 mile (felt like alot more miles) uphill climb to the peak of Mam Tor. On our way up we learnt about the layers of rock; found limestone, sandstone and flint; how the Iron age people travelled up and down the hill tops for trade and visiting family members in the other valley and the history behind the old Fort at the peak. Incredible views of Hope Valley!! All children did amazingly well with great growth mindset and perseverance even at the steepest of climbs and on the way back down again.
Lunch time took us to Castleton Town and up another steep hill to Pevril Castle, to see the keep and the amazing views of the town below. The trip to the sweetshop was an afternoon highlight and ice creams by the river ended the day brilliantly.
We may have written a little something to arrive home in the next few days so watch out in your post! Tomorrow are the last of the activities and the children, I'm sure, will enjoy every last moment.

Hollowford Day 2- July 2019
From zip wire to raft building to caving and high ropes to rocks to walking -Worlingworth children have had a great 2nd day at Hollowford. We have been well fed and well watered with cooked breakfast, cooked lunch and dinner with yummy puddings!
Zip wire saw Miss Owen and Kyra take the leap of faith zooming down the wire feeling very proud of themselves and rightly so. Caving saw Lillie and Jess team up to support each other crawling on hands and knees in the dark and May F created a cave facial out of cave mud. Weasling saw Chiedza and May N have a growth mindset towards the challenge of falling over and the mental challenge of squeezing through small gaps.
Raft building saw Jack use his design skills to help create a raft that took him and his team across the lake successfully, that is until they all jumped in!
1st room inspection went well girls came 3rd in their corridor and boys came 4th in their corridor... some room for improvement for the big room inspection Thursday! Time in the countryside park and playing fields this evening with a Quiz went well with many sweets won as prizes YUM!
We look forward to tomorrow's hike up Mam Tor and adventure to Pevril Castle and Castleton, bring on the sweet and fudge shop 😊
Worlingworth year 6 are doing us proud, keep up the super behaviour and positive attitudes to challenges!
Here's to another good night sleep ready for tomorrow...

Journey to Hollowford went well: with singing, games, sweets and spot the cow going on, time went fast. The arrival to Castleton sparked excitement and the first dinner cause more smiles! Yum!! We were well fed ready for a 'short' 2 hour walk around the beautiful hill sides of Castleton. Cows were mooing, sheep were bleating and the children were repeating the noises back to the delight of the locals listening. All children now in bed looking forward to the next day ahead of them. Night night Worlingworth.

Teddy Bear's Picnic- July 2019
Penguin class invited our friends from Homestart to a teddy bear’s picnic. We read the story ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’ and made teddy shaped arts and crafts. Next we prepared a snack of crackers, cream cheese, raisins and bananas to make teddy bear faces and we sat outside with our teddies for the picnic. Finally we had bear hunts of our own trying to spot the bears hiding in the trees. There was even a tiny rabbit toy joining in the adventures!

Penguin's on Bike- June 2019
Penguin class really enjoyed their ‘Ride your bike’ days and we were really impressed with their safety knowledge and pedalling skills. We had bikes, trikes, scooters and even some police car ‘ride ons’ all travelling safely in the playground, following road markings and completing a circuit track. We learned what each part of the bike was called and how it make our vehicles move or stop. Next we drew our bikes, looking at the shapes and different sizes. Lastly we wrote captions about our fun day under a photograph of us on our bikes. What a busy couple of days we had!
Plastic Pollution morning KS2- June 2019
This morning KS2 have been focusing on plastic pollution and what this means for the future of our planet and all those that live upon it. Two pupils from our School Council put together a presentation and speech to explain about the issues surrounding plastic use and specifically 'single use plastics'. They sparked discussion, concerns and even potential solution ideas from KS2 about our own plastic usage in school and at home. We also took a wider view and looked at plastic pollution on dry land and in the oceans; specifically at the turtle and how a turtle ingests plastic bags due to their similarity to jellyfish. In response we created plastic pollution jellyfish out of recycled plastics and then wrote persuasive letters and posters to persuade humanity to act upon our concerns. The children were very active and passionate in their opinions and we are proud to have pupils who care so much about our wonderful planet and it's future.
Remember to: Reduce, Reuse Recycle, Rethink, Refuse, Repair - the 6 Rs to saving our planet.
Sports Day- June 2019
Well done Worly! An amazing effort by all who joined in our Sports Day!! We truly have some great; runners, throwers, hoppers, rollers and slalom benders in our school and we are so very proud of you and your sportsmanship. Adults who came to support us saw and heard such positivity and support for one another, words of encouragement and superb effort from all our pupils.
-Special thanks goes to our Sports Ambassadors and all the help they gave before, through out and after the events- organising, setting up and tidying away.

Crucial Crew- June 2019
The year 5&6 form Worly had a fun filled afternoon at The Mix in Stowmarket learning all about personal safety and potential dangers in and out of the home. They learned everything from how to avoid electric shocks, CPR, online safety, mental well-being to what to do in case of a fire. Great to see such confident positive pupils getting stuck into their learning.
Cricket- June 2019
A superb effort by all who played in the cricket tournament at Worlingowrth Cricket grounds. It was great to see the things you have learnt from Chance to Shine coaches (that come in Wednesday afternoon to teach cricket) showing in your games today in the form of skills, tactics and sportsmanship. Well Done Worly!
PCSO Visit-June 2019
Penguin class was very excited when PC Norman Drew arrived to talk to the children about his role as a Police Officer. The children asked questions and were given the opportunity to try on different uniforms and police helmets. Next the children were allowed to see the police car and even sat inside the vehicle. This really helped to bring our ‘Transport’ topic to life. Finally PC Norman Drew put on the flashing lights and even the sirens! It was very loud and very exciting! We now know more about police cars and the role of the police and can’t wait to start playing ‘Police Officers’ outside in the garden.
Artistic Inspiration!-June 2019
We were lucky enough to have an art student (Lily Hammond) to visit us this week. She showed us her incredible multicultural art which included graffiti, children’s book illustrations, acrylic paintings, marker pen images, printing, graphic design and line drawing. She is a very talented young artist and is inspired by famous activists, Nigerian, Japanese and Mexican artists and motivational quotes from famous people that have made a difference in the world.
In Penguin class we were fascinated by Lily’s animal art and especially her incredible flamingo, peacock and under the sea designs.
Panda class learnt about street art, graffiti and the techniques Lily uses to create such large images on the walls in a special place in London where she is allowed to display her work with famous street artists.
Panther class were really impressed with Lily’s detailed drawings and designs and were particularly in awe of her snake design and the commission that she did for a celebrity comedian.
After the presentation the children asked lots of questions and are really keen to improve at their own art skills and were already planning their next art lesson with their teachers. I cant wait to see how you have all been inspired!
Male Role Model Celebration Lunch-June 2019
How wonderful to see so many supportive, positive, influential male role models within our children's lives come to our special lunch today. We know the children are very grateful to have you support them and they wanted to thank you for your love and care. We hope you enjoyed a lovely meal with the children at Worlingworth and we wish you a Happy Father's Day to all those looking after and raising such great kids, you're doing a superb job!
SNAG news -June 2019
The last meeting that Mrs Ryan and the SNAG children organised was about reminding children and adults to drink lots of water during the day. It was decided that they would design posters informing everyone the importance of staying hydrated especially in warmer weather. The chosen poster was designed by Henry and featured a very catchy slogan and some brilliant facts. Look out for his poster around school and in book bags next week and don’t forget to drink lots of water. Congratulations Henry on your winning design!

Wear it Wild for WWF!- June 2019
WOW! What amazing effort made by all at Worly to dress up as animals from all walks of life in order to raise money for a brilliant charity and to end writing week with a fun filled day. We had giraffes and bees, dragons and sharks, sloths and elephants, lizards and monkeys, flamingos and owls, panthers and leopards, dogs and many more even a whole zoo on Mrs Gascoyne-Cecil’s onesie! We had animal themed lessons, animal themed spelling bee and even animal themed games to end our writing week.

Animal Writing Week- June 2019
To promote a love of writing and engage young writing at Worly, we have had a whole week focused on super writing. We started our week with a trip to Africa Alive to learn about the animals, their habitats, their diet and how to help with endangered species. We then spent the week writing, poems, recounts, stories and information booklets all about animals and conservation.
Penguin Class -wrote an amazing story all about a flamingo that eats different foods, his feathers then change colour to the colour of the food he is eating. It was fascinating and really imaginative, followed with some lovely handwriting and drawings.
Panda class- have written interesting and detailed recounts of our trip to Africa Alive and advertising the trip by writing opinionated reviews for trip advisor.
Panther class – wrote poems about animals that are at risk of extinction in order to inspire people to help save the species for the future generation.
We will end the week with a fun filled fancy dress day on Friday for the charity WWF – ‘Wear it Wild Day 2019’ with lots of animal themed lessons, games and activities. Do keep that inspiration of writing and we look forward to reading more of your work soon. Well done wonderful Worly writers!

Africa Alive- June 2019
What a wonderful way to start our writing week! As a whole school we took on the adventure of visiting Africa Alive to learn about all the animals, their habitats, their diet and how to help look after them and other animals on our planet. We saw everything from rhinos to ostriches, fennec fox to meerkats, giraffes to tarantulas and everything in between. The pupils were fascinated to see these animals with their own eyes and in well maintained enclosures that show off their natural behaviours as best as possible. Thank you to Africa Alive for having us visit and well done to all children who came along for showing superb behaviour and proudly representing our school. We look forward to the
Pupil Teacher Swap Day- May 2019
What a fun filled day of swapping uniforms, some roles swaps and seeing the average school day from a different perspective. Year 6 arranged a pupil teacher swap day to raise money for their leaver hoodies (raising nearly £50.00... SUPER). Thank you to everyone who joined in and for all the effort made to look professional, smart and teacher-like. Some children dressed as specific teachers adopting the finer details of staff such as; specific hair styles, pens in hair, specific dress sense and handmade teacher badges!!! Teachers joined in by wearing school uniform and taking on some of the children's responsibilities for the day. Great fun had by all....well organised year 6!
Penguins & The Pond- May 2019
Penguin class have been learning about the animals and plants around us and on our travels. After a discussion about the ‘Yellow Submarine’ and what they might see if they travelled underwater, we talked about animals that live in salt water and animals that live in fresh water. We went to the pond to investigate what we might find in this fresh water environment. Whilst pond dipping we discovered and observed frogs, newts, diving beetles, pond snails, pond skaters and water boatman. Very exciting! I think we can say that pond dipping is now a favourite activity for Penguin class!

Homestart Morning- April 2019
On Monday morning we welcomed our friends from Homestart for a ‘stay and play’ session. We had multicoloured playdough to make eggs, rabbits and other Easter shapes. We decorated foam egg shapes with stickers and had Easter Bunny crisps at snacktime for a special treat, along with our usual fruit and milk etc. Then we played on the climbing equipment and searched for insects in the bark. Finally we explored the school field and all played together. Thank you to the mums that came along and shared the morning with us. It was lovely to see you and already Penguin class have asked when you will all come back again.
Stations of the Cross- March 2019
As we head towards a special time for Christians, Worlingworth Primary learned more about the Easter Story in an interactive and thought provoking morning. We started with a whole school collective worship and then separated into groups, each group travelled around the school to different stations (lead by the teachers) to learn more about different parts of the Christian Easter story. Our 6 stations focused on: Hopes and Dreams- Palm Sunday, Servant King - Jesus tending to others, Remember Me - The Last supper, Alone - In the garden of Gethsemane, Sharing of our suffering - Good Friday and Resurrection - Easter Sunday. The children were invited to observe different displays and representations of each station then to discuss and reflect on the different parts of the Easter Story. We then finished our morning with an Easter trail; KS2 hunted for answers on paper Easter eggs that needed to be matched with the Christian Easter questions and KS1 hunted for paper Easter eggs with letter that, when placed in the correct order, spelt 'Jesus is alive.' The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves and had lots of opportunities to reflect on their own lives and religious beliefs. A big thank you to all the teachers involved in organising a wonderful Easter morning.
Here's to a 'Hoppy' Easter in a few weeks time :)
Swimming- Spring Term 2019
The children in KS2 have been working really hard at improving their swimming and life saving skills this term. They have learnt how to; float unaided, swim a variety of strokes for a variety of distances, jump in safely, use floats to support swimming, tread water, swim through hoops, pick up objects, breathe correctly when swimming to conserve energy and have recently completed their distance swimming challenges. The children had a super growth mindset attitude to their learning and every child has progressed with their swimming skills. Certificates were given out by their swimming teachers at Stradbroke Swimming Pool and the children should be very proud, as are we of them! A huge thank you to our swimming teachers Lindsey and Denise for supporting their learning and long may the swimming progress continue for the children outside of school hours. Happy swimming!!!...just keep swimming... just keep swimming...
Mothers' Day Lunch- March 2019
Worlingworth would like to send lots of love and thanks for all those wonderful females with mothering roles in our pupil's lives this weekend. We held a special lunch here at school where many of our pupil's mother figures came to celebrate. We had mummies and nannies, aunties and female family friends all who have loved, cared for and nurtured our pupils. They were treated to enjoy; table service cooked lunch, flowers on the tables, special place mats and homemade gifts from the children. We hope you had a lovely lunch, it was wonderful to see so many faces at our Mother figure lunch and we wish you a very lovely weekend....enjoy it while it lasts :) Happy Mothering Sunday!
London Trip- March 2019
Year 5 and 6 had a fantastic day out in London. From Tube to River Bus to windy walking on the Millennium Bridge they explored the capital city in many different ways. In the morning, they focussed on the Tudor history of London, observing Shakespeare’s Globe and exploring the Golden Hinde to learn more about life on board a Tudor ship. Then after lunch, they headed to Westminster to see democracy in action with a tour around the Houses of Parliament . They sat in the House of Commons and stood in the House of Lords and ended their tour with a question session in a select committee room! After a sing-along with their tea at McDonalds, the children headed home for a surprising train journey in a dark carriage. Uno in the dark anyone!
Orienteering- March 2019
Super effort from all that attended the Orienteering competition at Haristmere High School. No-one got lost, all Worlingworth teams managed to find most, if not all, the markers and use a map correctly; ensuring North was always facing North and using the landmarks around them to support their orienteering quest. Everyone seemed to enjoy their time and experience. A big thank you to those who helped organise the event and we will continue to improve our orienteering skills ready for next year.
Well done Worly!!

Explorer Book Week- March 2019
06.03.19 - Book Trail Exploration
The children of Worlingworth Primary school completed a book trail exploration adventure after school today, inviting their family to join them in being active, wearing their wellies and putting their orienteering skills to the test. The mapped out adventure took our Worly explorers through the village, across bridges, in shallow ditches, over stiles and through muddy fields. Along the way the explorers collected clues all linked to famous books, with the last clue back at school. Upon their return the excited explorers received a well deserved snack and drink, for they were thirsty after their adventures, and an extra special bookmark to remember their expedition by. Thank you to all those who took part and to those who planned such a brilliant active Book Week explorer trail challenge.

Thank you again for your continued support.
Big Sing!- November 2018
Years 4,5 & 6 have been working hard to learn some lovely, but also challenging, songs to perform to the composer herself and special guests at Snape Maltings concert hall.

The composer Errolyn Wallen mentioned how moved and pleased she was, so all our hard work obviously paid off
Cross Country- November 2018
Unfortunately the organised cross country even was cancelled at Framlingham college due to bad weather, however Worlingworth did not let this stop us!
We took a trip to the local community field and completed our own cross country event, including a warm up lead by the Year 6 Sports Ambassadors and year group cross country races still with sports kits and coloured professional chest labels. All children showed super growth mindset and positive attitude towards the unfortunate news of cancellation and the exciting news of our own cross country events.
Well done to all who tried their best and many who helped each other with words of encouragement and celebration.

Remembrance Service- November 2018
Remembrance 09.11.18
100 years since the end of World War 1.
'The guns fell silent and the birds were heard again- Lest we forget, we will remember them'
Worlingworth commemorated and celebrated the bravery of those involved in WW1 with a history week. Children learnt about how WW1 began and how it ended, which countries were involved and why Great Britain got involved, life in the trenches and life after the war ended. Each class created beautiful poppy art which was a part of the Worlingworth Church Remembrance service on Sunday 11th November 2018.
Nursery and reception made clay and printed paint poppies, KS1 used their sewing skills to create fabric poppies and KS2 used their abstract technique to create mixed media 2D poppy art. All of which looked brilliant as a display for our remembrance assembly and tea held at the school and then for the church service on Sunday.
A special thank you to Rev Burrell for speaking and bringing in a 'death penny' given out to families who had a bereavement in WW1, to share with the children during our school remembrance collective worship assembly on Friday.
Here's to all those who were brave for our country in the past, the present and the future.
Computing Week- October 2018
A super week focusing on computing, programming and problem solving skills.
Nursery and Reception worked with beebots and directional language, KS1 really got to grips with word processing, saving and finding files, KS2 investigated and created own games using the software scratch.
All children enjoyed improving their computing skills, debugging skills (fixing programming mistakes) and challenging themselves to think more logically, like a computer.
Worlingworth would like to give a special thank you to: Bedfield Primary and University Campus Suffolk in Ipswich, for lending us beebots and Stradbroke and Debenham High Schools, for lending us laptops etc. All borrowed equipment aided such success during the week, so it was much appreciated.
