This year, Pupil Parliament, alongside other schools within the consortium trust, is focusing on developing an area of their school to attract wildlife and create a biodiverse space. The pupils decided to focus their time on the front of the school, where there are opportunities to attract a wide range of wildlife by planting and adding homes and spaces for wildlife to enjoy. As part of the project, Pupil Parliament discussed seeking donations for different items. Jacob in Year 6, ably assisted by Toby, wrote to Scratby Garden Centre, who kindly donated all of the items pictured. A huge thank you to Jacob and Toby for showing such initiative and thank you to Scratby Garden Centre for their very kind donations.

A big thank you to Winterton Friends and the Flegg High School Events Team for an amazing Christmas Fayre. Great fun was had by everyone!

Thank you to everyone who came to the Christingle service today. It was a huge team effort, with volunteers helping pupils make Christingles and providing music. The children did an amazing job performing, and a special thank you to Howard for volunteering with our pupils each week to bring the Winterton Church handbells to life – the children were fantastic.

This term in Shark Class, we have been refining our skills on the football pitch. I have been so impressed with the progress from the initial sessions, where many children were reluctant to take part or felt they couldn't do it, to the end of the half term where every child is joining in and giving it a go. We have also discussed the importance of taking part, alongside winning gracefully. I couldn't be prouder of the progress the children have made this half term.
