World Book Day Wonderland!

23/3/2021

0 Comments

 
Milton Abbot School has always enjoyed sharing World Book Day together, especially dressing up and sharing our favourite stories. This year was especially sweet as we waited until we were all back together after restricted attendance for two months to celebrate being back together. A great day was had by all.

We raised over £130 for Comic Relief last week, with every child splatting Mr Luxford with a cream pie! Thank you to all our parents for their kind donations. If you need to speak to Mr Luxford over the next few weeks you will need to speak up because his ears are full of cream!!

The children of Milton Abbot put together not one but two films this Christmas, so that more children could perform in acting roles - and what a great job they did - we premiere the film tomorrow in class and then families will be sent a link to view the film at home. Happy Christmas to all the families and friends of Milton Abbot School...

Christmas Jumper Day for Food Bank - thank you

17/12/2020

0 Comments

 
On the 16th December the children enjoyed their annual Christmas Jumper day at school, which is used to raise awareness and money for a charity. This year the children suggested Food Bank so that they could do something as part of the local community. Our families donated very generously and filled more than three large boxes full of donations - thank you!

Down where the dinosaurs dance!

Our Snowy Owls Reception Class have been learning to dance like dinosaurs with their class teacher Miss Stansbury! They learnt to move in time to the music and to use their whole body and all the space available. We think you're dino-tastic Snowys!

A visiting virtual vicar 'zooms in' to Barn Owls

4/12/2020

0 Comments

 
To mark the beginning of Advent, and as part of their Religious Education learning about Christianity, the Barn Owls (KS1) enjoyed a Zoom visit from Reverend Stephen Partridge. Stephen showed the children his advent calendars and his three different types of Nativity scene (knitted, matchbox-sized and gingerbread), whilst explaining to the children why Christmas is so important to Christians. Then children asked some great questions, which included: 'When was God born?' and 'Why do you pray?' The class then enjoyed retelling the story of Jesus' birth in our woods - cold but fun!

Further cross-country success for Milton Abbot School...it doesn't make us cross!

4/12/2020

We have finished third out of all the small schools in the Tavistock area for the latest round of 'virtual' cross-country events for both our lower Key Stage 2 and upper Key Stage 2 team, which is quite some achievement and makes us very proud. This also highlights the focus we put on exercise and competition! We also have some individual winners...but we won't reveal this until the medals arrive from OCRA!

Road Safety Week - November

25/11/2020

0 Comments

 
The Milton Abbot community joined together during National Road Safety week to raise driver awareness about the need to slow down through our village. The children learnt about road safety, created a chant and held posters reminding cars to slow down. Parents also formed a 'Walking Bus' through the village and the children now wear hi-vis vests to make sure they are seen. What a brilliant local community!

Back in time with a biscuit!

One of the pictures above is the real Stonehenge...but two of them are made out of biscuits during Tawny Owls' very exciting history learning! We enjoy weekly history lessons at Milton Abbot School because we believe the language, stories and vocabulary involved offers so much to our children.
