• Variety Performance in aid of the Red Cross Afghanistan Appeal

  Sun 31 Oct 2021 Mrs Hill

  Last Sunday evening, our amazing choir took part in a Variety Performance in Wimborne in aid of the Red Cross' Afghanistan Appeal as, due to decades of conflict, years of extreme drought, and weeks of heavy fighting, 18 million people in Afghanistan need urgent humanitarian help. Thank you so much to all of our families who came along to cheer us on, to all of the grown ups who helped backstage and to our fantastic ex-Year 4 children who made a guest appearance! With the youngest on stage just four years old, the children performed our songs 'Amazing Grace' and 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' so beautifully and with such confidence - we couldn't be prouder of them all. A huge well done children for giving your all to help raise money for such a brilliant cause.

  

• WSG Rocks!

  Fri 22 Oct 2021

  The PTA Disco ensured that the Autumn half term ended with a bang! The theme was Rock Stars and the children didn’t disappoint with their costumes; Axel Rose, Arianna Grande, Pink and many more were represented. We danced, played games and chatted to friends, the perfect end to a busy half term. 
   

  Thank you so much to our wonderful PTA for organising with event which will help raise funds for our library project. 
   

   

  

• The Open to Book team return to WSG

  Wed 20 Oct 2021

  We were delighted to welcome the Open the Book team back into school today for the first time this term. They retold the story of Creation with fantastic props and some very willing and enthusiastic supporting cast members! The children were spellbound during the story and behaved impeccably. We can't wait until next time to hear the next part of the story. 

  

• Our Vision Tree gains its leaves!

  Fri 15 Oct 2021

  Today was a special day as the children finally had the opportunity to add their hand-stitched leaves to the Vision tree on our altar cloth.

   

  We want every child to flourish and to fulfill their potential. We teach children that no two leaves are the same - and neither are they! Throughout their time with us, we instill  the sense in them that they are unique, they are special and they are loved. 

   

  The visual representation of our vision is a tree with the children as leaves reaching out. We want our children to flourish and be empowered to change the world. Throughout their time with us, children are given regular opportunities to serve their local, national and global community and 'be the change' they want to see in the world. 

   

  We regularly explore this idea from St Augustine:

  "We flourish, not for our own sake, but so we can look outwards and give."

   

  Last term, each child carefully stitched their name onto a leaf and it was wonderful to watch them add their names to the tree today. 
   

  “And on the banks, on both sides of the river, there will grow all kinds of trees for food. Their leaves will not wither, nor their fruit fail, but they will bear fresh fruit every month, because the water for them flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for healing.” Ezekiel 47:12

• Just One Tree day

  Fri 15 Oct 2021

  To support Just One Tree day, children were invited to come to school dressed as a tree or in forest colours in return for a £1 donation. There were some fantastic outfits and the children really enjoyed the day. 
   

  Just One Tree pledge to plant a tree for every £1 donated. Reforestation on this scale will create a greener future for our children, help them understand the challenges of climate change and empower them to make a difference. ​

  
  Well done WSG #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeGive

  

• Extra Special Collective Worship

  Wed 06 Oct 2021

  It was a great pleasure to welcome back Rev. Carr today. The children really enjoyed his worship and it felt great to get back to a sense of normality, welcoming visitors into the school again. We're looking forward to Rev. Carr's worship again next month. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeGive

  

• Harvest Festival

  Fri 01 Oct 2021

   On Friday 1st October, we held our annual Harvest Festival at St Giles’ Church. This was the first time we had all been in church together for a long time and it was so special to have our families join us too. The children's poems and prayers were really thoughtful and their singing raised the roof! Thank you to all of you for your generous donations to Ringwood Foodbank; they were very grateful for our support.
