French Day
The entire school at Our Lady & St Werburgh's was transformed for their French Day! Both staff and pupils went to great lengths to dress for the occasion and I was greeted by a walking bottle of champagne and a living replica of Degas' ballerina! The day incorporated a huge variety of activities from cafes and food tasting to the reproduction of Monet masterpieces. I was delighted to be involved both with the planning and running of the day and also in the whole school assembly at the end of the day where all classes throughout KS1 & 2 came together to share each other’s success. We all listened to songs sung in French, enjoyed the Robert Delauney artwork created and last of all we enjoyed the Can Can performed by the Year 6 class. It was a wonderful day and all staff and pupils should feel proud of what they achieved.

"Pupils’ personal development is excellent. Pupils behave exceptionally well, enjoy their lessons, have high self-esteem and have excellent attitudes to learning. This is a strength of the school and has a positive impact on pupils’ achievement."
