Valerie Bloom MBE, novelist and poet spent the day, 3rd October, at Irchester Community Primary School.
Valerie hosted a whole school assembly where she invited the children to join in with some of her poems. She held two workshops, one for each of the Year 6 classes. Valerie, along with our competition winners opened the new Story Cottage (an area where children can go to listen to stories, or quietly read). Pictures attached.
Valerie was interviewed by our Reading Ambassadors. Q & A below:
It was a fantastic day, bringing poetry alive (on National Poetry Day).The children thoroughly enjoyed the visit; one pupil even said, “It was the best day of (my) life.”
The Y3/4 football team did extremely well at the Wollaston football festival. They played four matches. Won 2 and drew 2.
All players did their best, shooting, tackling and with Jordan as a superb goalie, the team came second out of 5 teams.
The whole team showed all of our school values of Ready, Respectful and Responsible. Irchester Primary is very proud of them.
Thank you to the adults who supported them and took them to the festival.
Well done!
Team: Joshua Toyer, Jordan walker, Tyler McFarlane, Frejya Coulson, Luis Grant, Alex Weed and Lilly Thomas.
