We'd like to wish one of our parents, Tom Crapp and two other Charlestown YFC coaches the best of luck with his epic challenge! The 5G pitch that Charlestown YFC are fundraising for will not only be used by the club, it will be offered out to the local community and schools. With the club being right on our doorstep, this would be an amazing asset for our school and our pupils. If you're able to donate towards Tom's challenge, please follow the link in the shared post!

We don't like cricket...we love it! On Friday, our Y6 and Y4 cricketers took part in a friendly St Austell Cricket Cup event which was organised by Penrice Academy PE and hosted by St Austell Cricket Club. Our Y4s and Y6s won all 3 of their matches and played some fantastic cricket ! It was also one of the first times we got to wear our very smart cricket tops that were kindly sponsored by Trewoon Community Hub - Team Trewoon Community Fundraisers! A big thank you to the Penrice Academy Sports Leaders who umpired the games and supported all of the teams throughout ! #schoolsport #futurecricketers

Year 3 have combined RE with history and became archaeologists this week! Both classes visited St Mewan Church and Rev Paul and his helpers taught them about the person called Mewan. They looked for clues around the church then visited Mewan's holy well. All the children had a turn at being archaeologists as they dug the many years of dirt out of the well. The next lot of Year 3's in September will continue this project! #futurearchaeologists #OutdoorLearning

We've been taking our learning outside today to keep the children as cool as possible. We've made the most of the various shady spots around the school and will continue to utilise the cooler outdoor learning spaces over the next few days! #OutdoorLearning #OutdoorEducation

Blue Team Once again, all of our pupils have been amazing all week and demonstrated such courage, skill and determination throughout our events.

This week, our Year 5 children welcomed the Performance in Education Team, on behalf of Cornwall Council, who performed their fantastic show 'Abbie Ayre and the Shed of Science.' The interactive show helped pupils explore the important topic of air quality in a fun and memorable way. Through the adventures of Abbie Ayre, her scientist grandmother Dr Rosemary Ayre, her friend Charlie and the supercomputer Derek 5000, the children investigated the causes of air pollution and learned about the impact poor air quality can have on our health and well being. Pupils were encouraged to think about the choices they make every day and how they can help improve air quality, discovering how small changes can make a big difference to the environment. Our pupils thoroughly enjoyed the experience and came away inspired to make positive changes both at home and at school. It was wonderful to hear so many children at the end of the session discussing practical ways they can help improve air quality and create a cleaner, healthier future for everyone. A huge thank you to the Performance in Education Team and Cornwall Council for delivering such an informative, entertaining and thought-provoking session!
