Reception's Busy Week Our Reception pupils have been hard at work over the past couple of weeks, exploring new skills and having plenty of fun along the way! They've been tackling numbers in maths, learning to weave using the playground fence and have been busy tending to the plants. A fantastic mix of learning and creativity - well done, Reception!

For those of you who missed it, our fabulous Year 5 class was featured in the newspaper as the "Class of the Week," showcasing their hard work learning to play the trombone in preparation for the upcoming WCET musical festival. Well done, Year 5!

Welcome Back to School! What a fantastic start we've had after our lovely Easter break! It's been a busy but exciting week settling back into school, and we're thrilled to see everyone's smiling faces again. Our after-school clubs are off to an amazing start, with Gipping Valley and Thurston Sports Partnership giving our Year 3 and 4 students a thrilling taste of archery! What an incredible opportunity to learn new skills and have fun together. We are looking forward to another great term ahead!

All staff at Chilton would like to wish everyone a lovely Easter break. We look forward to welcoming the children back, rested and ready to learn, on Tuesday 22nd April 2025.
