The children in Year One have been creating gardens of hopes and dreams which, apart from being beautiful, share the children's life ambitions.
There are so many really love gardens with very thoughtful ideas of what they would like to achieve.
This afternoon, the Frogs class visited our new allotment. They have spent the week talking about where food comes from and this will now provide them with hands on experience of planting and growing.
There is lots of work to be done to get it ready for planting next term, so if you are green-fingered and want to lend a hand getting it ready, then please speak to Mr Homer.
The Dragonflies and Otters will be visiting over the next couple of weeks.
Today we had the grand opening of our new adventure playground. Members of the PSA, School Council and the Turbary Trust helped cut the ribbon on a blustery morning.
Last year our wonderful PSA worked hard to raise £10,000 to fund the work. £5000 was kindly donated by the Turbary Trust, £2000 by Tesco's Bags of Help and £3000 from Upton Infant School PSA.
Thank you to everyone who worked hard for this - the children love it!
