Coming To England, 22nd October 2024
Today, our Year 6 pupils had the fantastic opportunity to visit the MAST Mayflower Studios in Southampton to see Coming to England, a powerful stage adaptation of Baroness Floella Benjamin’s inspiring memoir. The play tells the story of young Floella’s journey from Trinidad to the UK in the Windrush era and her challenges adjusting to life in a new country, including the racism and hardships she faced. It’s a story of resilience, hope, and the importance of staying true to oneself.
The children were captivated from start to finish. The vibrant performances, heartfelt storytelling, and the play’s timely themes of identity and belonging resonated deeply with them. After the show, many of the students were buzzing with excitement, sharing their favourite moments and reflecting on the powerful messages they took away.
It was a truly enriching experience for all, reinforcing the importance of empathy, understanding, and celebrating diversity. We’re certain this day will remain a lasting memory for everyone!
Osmington 2024-Day 5 (20th September 2024)
The children’s final morning of activities at Osmington Bay involved more harnesses as they climbed up the climbing wall today. Then this was followed by rifle shooting, truly going out with a bang.
Throughout this trip, they have shown remarkable resilience, empathy, and bravery, tackling new challenges and embracing experiences that have pushed them out of their comfort zones. The children have demonstrated a level of independence that will serve them well as they move on to secondary school. They have truly impressed us with their determination, kindness, and growth over the course of the week.

Following a break for lunch the children set off for their afternoons activities at National Sailing Centre, Portland. Here they had to build a seaworthy raft and then sail it, which they all successfully achieved, however jumping off was much more fun!
