The “boule” re-enacting Athenian democracy in History today, standing on our “pnyx”. Some proposals were definitely more popular with the “ecclesia” than others!

Local Historian Visit
Thank you so much to Gotham Historian Kevin Thorpe for a fascinating visit today. Kevin spoke to children from years 1, 2, 3 and 6. We learnt so much and it was amazing to hear first-hand accounts of the changes in Gotham!
Assemblies
Well done to our Year Six leaders for your detailed research and confidence in delivering interesting assemblies.
Platinum Jubilee Celebrations 2022
As part of our celebrations, every child in school created a triangle for our school bunting. This was then skillfully turned into bunting by Mrs Scott and given to the Village Jubilee Committee who will be putting it up around the recreation ground for the celebrations. Within school, we had our own party to celebrate the Queen’s amazing achievements. We had a 1950’s Street Party in the playground. We made cucumber sandwiches, decorated crown biscuits and played some traditional games. The year 6 children rewrote the words to ‘Que Sera Sera’ to update them and ensure that they considered diversity and equality. We all enjoyed singing our new version together. Thank you to all the staff and the Year 5 Jubilee Team.
