• Reception Jimmy's Farm trip! 🐷

  Mon 16 Jun 2025 Mrs Ross

  Woodpeckers and Foxes enjoyed a very sunny first school trip to Jimmy's Farm.

  After a morning learning about the 'Animals ABC', we took some much needed shade in the woodland and put our Forest School skills to good use with some expert den building. 

  

• U11s semi final cup match ⚽

  U11s semi final cup match

  Yesterday afternoon our U11 boys Football Team played their semi final cup match game against 'St Mark's Primary'.

   

  Our opponents today were skilled and competent opponents.  St Mark's team opened the scoring with a confident first goal; with a second St Mark's goal not long after.  It was difficult for our team to penetrate their defence in the first half and frustration was on the faces of our team.  At half time the Bramford boys were encouraged and reminded to play as a team. 

  The game became pacier with our players stepping up their game to match their opponents.  It was then that the breakthrough happened.  Linked play and  perseverance to hold possession of the ball meant chances opened up to us.  With three amazingly ACE Bramford goals scored consecutively, the possession in the second half was very much ours but not without the Bramford defence and goalkeeper having to work extremely hard to keep out some amazingly close near misses too.  The winning goal was scored in the final couple of minutes of the game securing our place in the cup FINALS!    The match ended with a triumphant final score of...3:2...to Bramford!   The team thoroughly deserved this win.

   

  As always, thank you to all the parents who spectated.  Mr Vickers and Mrs Harvey, thank you for your time, dedicated coaching and words of encouragement from the sideline. 

   

  As a school we are VERY proud of the way the boys performed as a team.  We wait with excitement as to the team we will play in the FINAL and where the match venue will be.

  You are ACE! We have ended the season with three consecutive wins!

  Hedgehogs share morning 🦔🌈

  Hedgehogs had a lovely morning sharing their learning with their parents. They enjoyed using their ICT skills to find the 54 countries in Africa, making play dough continents, making African necklaces, reading African stories and unscrambling African animal names. Thank you to all who came, we loved having you!

  

• Tortilla making! 🌮

  Tortilla making! 🌮

  Today we continued our learning about the Maya civilisation and linked this to DT/cooking. The Maya people grew and ate corn or maize. They even worshipped a maize god. We looked at pictures of maize / corn on the cob, handled dried corn kernels, tasted tinned sweetcorn and made our own tortillas using corn meal, olive oil, salt and water. I was impressed with how well the children taught each other how to make the tortillas and how sensible and safe they were while cooking.

  

• Sun safe assembly 😎🌞

  Sun safe assembly 😎🌞

  We had a special assembly yesterday which was delivered by a special visitor from cancer support, Suffolk. They came in to educate us all about staying safe in the sun. We discussed wearing protective clothing, wearing factor 50 sun cream, remembering our sun glasses, staying hydrated and seeking shade. We all listened beautifully and learnt some new things about protecting ourselves from the sun. Some of the adults were surprised to hear that some suncreams have to be used within 12 months!

   

  I wonder how many of the children came home to talk to you about the following sun safe rules:

   

  Slip on a shirt, Slop on the 30+ sunscreen, Slap on a hat, Seek shade, Slide on some sunglasses.
