School News

Last Thursday an external Local Authority advisor/inspector visited Wentworth. She was given a tour of the school and had a chance to visit classrooms and meet with some of our pupils. We received some lovely feedback and are incredibly proud of our pupils and staff.

Last Sunday, Miss Ainscough and two of our pupils, Hanna and Harley, were invited to represent Wentworth at a civic service at St Mary’s Church.

Last Friday, Year 4 visited Colchester Castle as part of their History topic ‘Roman Britain’. The children were able to see the foundations of the Roman temple which once stood where the castle is today, made a round house and a Roman villa and even got to try virtual chariot racing in the Museum gallery.

Over the past few months, Mr Whitworth and his team of Year 6 Nature Club members have worked incredibly hard transforming our pond and wildlife area.

One of our pupils, Holly, has donated 12 inches of her hair to the Little Princess Trust who make wigs for children who have lost their hair through illness and fund research into childhood cancer. Holly has worked really hard fundraising for the charity and has raised over £500! A huge well done to Holly!
