Our Year 6 play told the story of Refugee Boy, based on a book written by Benjamin Zephaniah. We wrote our own words, created our own songs and told a deeply emotional story about belonging, change and resilience. The children displayed these qualities throughout rehearsals and the performance, and they were incredible to watch. We are sending them out into the world, braver, more determined and with confidence and pride. Well done Year 6! Well done Gainsborough.

Wild Flower Walk. We took our assembly outside again this week, enjoying a shared experience and celebrating what a wonderful area we have access to. We walked to Wick Woodland, checking a wild flower checklist as we went. We spotted most British wild flowers that were expected in Spring. Year 6 had a Summer wild flowers checklist and most of their flowers had not yet bloomed. Well done years 1-6. #outdoorlearning #keepgreen
