MADD week 2026

We’ve had an absolutely MADD week, with children taking part in special activities all based around the disciplines of music, art, drama and dance! Each day of the week had a different focus with Monday examining shapes and patterns; Tuesday exploring community; Wednesday investigating flight; Thursday considering ‘Little Pieces, Big Impact and Friday devoted to Happiness Day. 

Activities included using our bodies as percussion instruments, singing some brilliant songs, dancing, using our bodies to ‘make a machine’ by instigating geometric patterns to be a cog that triggers the movement in our friends, painting small boxes and combining the results to build a ‘village’, making art from nature and even joining together in a playground flashmob, this afternoon!

Have a look at our joyous flashmob, with everyone dancing to Shakira's 'Waka Waka',  HERE!

Prae Wood achieves highest award for School Games

We are pleased to announce that Prae Wood has, for the first time, achieved the School Games Mark Platinum Award, a government-led award,  which recognises a school's outstanding commitment to PE, school sport and physical activity.  A school is only able to apply for this level of award once they have achieved the School Games Gold Award for the previous four consecutive years.  Mrs Paine is delighted to have finally achieved this award, having started at Bronze level when she joined the school in the academic year 2018/19.

Cricket finals night

Cricket finals night
Having finished top of their cricket league, Prae Wood received an invitation to finals night held at Samuel Ryder last Friday,
 
First up was a semi final against Wheatfields which Prae Wood won thanks to a combination of great bowling, batting and fielding.  Straightaway, the team were put into bat against Samuel Ryder, who had won the first semi final against Fleetville.  The team didn't manage to set quite as high a target for Samuel Ryder to chase but got off to a great start with Ayden taking a low catch behind the wicket off the first ball.  However, wickets were not easy to come by and in the final two overs an experienced batting pair put on a great defensive display, preventing Prae Wood from taking any further wickets, which would have reduced their opponent's run total.  
 
Nevertheless, finishing runners up out of sixteen local primaries was a great result especially as it was the first time since the league began four years ago that Prae Wood have made it through this far.  Thank you to all of the other members of the striking and fielding club who played in earlier fixtures and contributed to the team's success.
