recent events/activities at Oughton Primary and Nursery School:

SPORTS DAY 2022

EYFS (Nursery and Reception class) really enjoyed Sports Day on Wednesday 22nd June.The sun shone, and everyone had a well deserved ice pop afterwards. Well done to all the children who took part.

All the children from Years 1 to 6 took part in the Sports Afternoon on Thursday 23rd June. The children participated in different activities such as welly throwing and Crossing the Lava, trying to win as many points as possible for their house team whilst being supported by friends and families who had come to support too. Congratulations to Sapphire for winning the trophy this year.

THe Platinum Jubilee

The whole school celebrated the Queen's Platinum Jubilee with a picnic all together on the KS2 playground. All the children made their own own crowns to wear and wore red, white and blue in honour of the union jack flag.

HMS Oughton

We have wonderful new play equipment in the KS1 playground, including a pirate ship! Years 1 and 2 had great fun trying out the new equipment after the grand opening on Monday 6th June, with Mrs Clayton cutting the ribbon. The whole school have had a chance to play on it, much to the enjoyment of all the children.

Our Home, Our Planet

The whole school contributed to the new display in our main corridor. The theme is "Our World, Our Planet" and the importance of looking after the environment. There is no planet B!
