New Artwork installed at school

16 of our Year 5 talented artists were given the opportunity to work at Great Baddow High School with their art department to create a new piece of artwork.
They based it on our new logo and used clay with different modelling techniques such as 'scratch and slip'. We are planning an official opening in September, but here is a sneak preview.

Gail Emms kicks off School Sports Week

To launch National School Sports Week, our school was lucky to be selected to receive a visit from Gail Emms the Olympic silver medallist in Badminton.
She visited us on Wednesday 20th June 2012 and took part in badminton coaching as well as viewing different olympic and paralympic sports that the children were participating in. Our children were also coached by secondary pupils to present an Olympic dance too.

Did you enjoy Gail's assembly?

Logo Balloons Launched by Gail Emms

Wednesday 20th June at 2:00pm saw the launch of one balloon for every pupil, teacher and Governor at the school (nearly 400 in total). We were celebrating our new logo for the school and used the opportunity of Gail Emms, Olympic silver medallist, to launch the balloons.
You can see where they ended up by clicking on this link http://goo.gl/maps/MrnZ .
Our furthest balloon has currently travelled all the way to Denmark!

We certainly 'aimed high and flew higher'!
