• County Lego League Tournament!

  Fri 10 Feb 2023

  Our KS2 Lego Team attended the County Championships on Saturday at Caterpillar and Perkins in Peterborough. There were over 12 teams in attendance with some schools as far as Moulton! The children needed to compete in Robot battles where they had programmed and coded their robot to do certain tasks, present their project on renewable energy to a panel of judges and also share their posters, t-shirt designs and much more with other teams! The children were incredible ambassadors of Polebrook with many judges saying what a delightful group of children the were and they worked well as a team. So well in fact, we won the Teamwork trophy! This was one of the four main awards of the day! We are so proud of you all!

• Carol Singing at our local care home

  MLK class went out into the community to spread a little Christmas joy and sang at the care home this week. They sang absolutely beautifully and were fantastic Polebrook ambassadors. I know the residents really enjoyed it, well done. 

• Children in Need

  Thank you so much for your donations to Children In Need today. We have raised over £250, which is very impressive for a small school!

• Year 5/6 Lego Competition! We are through to Nationals!

  Wed 19 Jan 2022

  The week before the Christmas break, Lego Club took part in their competition against 10 other schools in our county. They needed to program a robot using specific coding, create an innovation project and present it to a panel of judges and design a logo which was added to a t-shirt. Our team did amazingly well… so well in fact that we came runner’s up of the competition and are through to the England Nationals! We are so proud of the commitment and effort from the children as it is completely child led and they were so brave during the competition! Information regarding Nationals will be available in the new year.

• Last day of the year

  Tue 20 Jul 2021

  Our first and last post of 20/21 and what a strange year it has been! But on the last day of the year the children managed to have a whole school photo (in bubbles)

  Thank you to all our children, parents and staff you have all been amazing.

  To all our leavers, you will be missed but always part of our Polebrook family.

  Have a super summer everyone and we look forward to seeing you all in September.

  Stay safe.

• Purple Class Science Visit

  Sun 04 Jul 2021

  Purple Class were invited to take part in Oundle School Science Week and spent the morning in a blow-up planetarium and making rocket cars!

   

  The planetarium was brought to the school by colleagues from Imperial College London and inside the dome, a projection of space filled all of the walls and ceiling and it felt as if we were travelling through space! We got to see all of the planets in our solar system as well as star constellations and galaxies.

   

  Next we were taken to one of the science labs where engineers from the Bloodhound project at University Swansea told us about their project to try and beat the land speed record. The children then needed to become engineers themselves and build their very own rocket cars! Once they were built, the children went out into the car park where their cars had a rocket attached to them and were then ignited to see how fast the cars could go – one of ours set a speed of over 43mph!

   

  It was a fantastic opportunity and the children of Purple Class thoroughly enjoyed themselves and it has inspired some of our pupils to want to become scientists and engineers when they are older!
