MYSTERY ANIMAL INVESTIGATION! Something very mysterious has been happening at school... Our young investigators discovered some unusual evidence: fur, footprints, sticks, claw marks and feathers! But that's not all... Mr Keep said he heard a HOWL when he was locking up the school! Mrs Gates found a feathers in the mystical garden. They collected the evidence ready for our expert investigators to examine. Squirrels and Hedgehog Class put their inference skills to the test, carefully studying the clues and using their knowledge to work out which animals might have been on the loose! There are lots of theories... but can our investigators solve the mystery? Graham Keep we will keep you posted!

What an AMAZING first week back in Year 3 and 4! We have had the most fantastic start to the new school year and have loved every minute of it. One of our highlights was watching the inspiring cyclists race through Coningsby as part of the Tour of Britain. The children were thrilled to cheer on the riders, and to make the day even more special, we even received a high five from one of the police officers on their motorbike! Back in the classroom, we explored the story My Unbelievable Summer and shared some of our own summer holiday memories. Using our imaginations, we transformed these into wonderfully wild, crazy and unbelievable stories that had us all laughing and inspired some fantastic writing, much like our chickens and goats, who had been dreaming of faraway destinations during their summer holidays! We have also begun our new Whole Class Reading book, The Tin Forest by Helen Ward and Wayne Anderson. The children have already immersed themselves in this beautiful story and have shown incredible creativity by designing and creating their own brilliant tin forests. We are so proud of how well everyone has settled back into school life. What a wonderful start to the year, and we can't wait to see what the rest of the term has in store! Well done, Year 3 and 4!

What a fantastic day of coming together! Today, our amazing staff came together with colleagues from across the LAAT Trust for a day of motivational, inspiring and exciting training. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn, reflect and celebrate the incredible work taking place across our schools. During the day, some of our amazing staff were recognised for their outstanding contributions to our school, our children and our wider community. Every single member of our team goes above and beyond each and every day, and they are all winners in our eyes. However, it was particularly lovely to celebrate these individual staff winners alongside the rest of Hub 3 and colleagues from across LAAT. We are incredibly proud of our whole team and the dedication, care and commitment they show every day. Our children and families truly benefit from the wonderful people who make up our school community. And now... we're ready for you! We cannot wait to see all our children and families tomorrow as we begin a brand-new school year. We are so excited to welcome everyone back, meet our new families and continue serving our children and our wider community. Here's to another fantastic year together! See you tomorrow!

Do you ever wonder how we keep our goats and chickens cool on these hot summer days? Easy... iced doughnuts and frozen mice, of course! DISCLAIMER! No actual mice or doughnuts were harmed (or eaten!) in the making of these treats! Our slightly suspicious-looking frozen snacks were specially made from water, cucumber, raspberries and strawberries the perfect little hydrating boost for our furry and feathered friends on a hot day.

As we reach the end of another wonderful school year, we have some heartfelt farewells to share. We said a very fond goodbye to Mrs Liley. Her leadership has always been guided by love, kindness and compassion, with the children at the heart of every decision she has made. She has made an incredible difference to our school, and while we will miss her dearly, the legacy she leaves behind will continue to shine through our staff, our children and our whole school community. Thank you, Mrs Liley, for everything you have given to our school. We wish you a happy retirement. We also say farewell to our amazing Year 6 children. You have been a wonderful part of our school family, and we are so proud of everything you have achieved. Although we will miss you dearly, we know you are ready for the exciting adventures that await you at secondary school. Be brave, be kind, believe in yourselves, and never forget that you will always be part of our school family. Good luck, we can't wait to see all that you accomplish. Finally, we would like to wish all of our children, staff and families a happy, safe and restful summer. Thank you for your continued support throughout the year. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in September, refreshed and ready for another fantastic year together.

Year 5 shone today with an amazing burst of creativity during STEM Day. The children spent the morning designing eco houses packed with brilliant ideas solar panels, rainwater collectors, clever insulation and all sorts of sustainable features. In the afternoon, parents joined them to turn those plans into real models, and the creativity in the room was incredible. Some of the designs were genuinely showstopping. A huge well done to all our young engineers and a big thank you to the parents who helped make the day such a success.

Our Warren class have been bringing stories to life through their love of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! As part of their English learning on the theme of authors, the children channelled their creativity and imagination to create their own delicious chocolate bars and magical Fizzy Lifting Drinks. We are so proud of the enthusiasm, teamwork and creativity shown by everyone involved. Their commitment to learning and willingness to immerse themselves in the story demonstrates exactly what happens when children are inspired by great literature. Well done, our wonderful Warren class, your creations look fantastic, and your love of learning shines through in everything you do!

Yesterday we welcomed four new feathered friends to the Mystical Garden! The children in Deer, Fox classes and our nurture group had great fun choosing their names, continuing our tradition of giving all our chickens flower-inspired names. So please join us in welcoming Thistle, Clover, Hyacinth and Sunflower. Marigold and Buttercup are enjoying showing them all the mystical garden has to offer. Including sampling everything in our vegetable beds!!!! In true Coningsby St Michael's fashion, both the children and staff have already fallen in love with them. It seems the feeling is mutual too, as they've already gifted us with our first two eggs! We can't wait to see all of the children getting to know the newest members of our Mystical Garden family and watching them become a special part of our outdoor learning.
