• Celebrating the amazing habit in our grounds

  Fri 08 Jul 2022

  Every Phase 2 and 3 class has been pond dipping in Forest School this week and we have found some very exciting bugs.

   

  Dragonflies and dragonfly nymphs, pond skaters and pond snails, newts and water boatmen, water fleas and blood worms.

   

  It's been so interesting checking out the trays with magnifying glasses to identify everything and very exciting that we have such an amazing habitat in our grounds!

  

• Oakley's Big British Summer Fair - Saturday, 2nd July

  Mon 04 Jul 2022

  What a wonderful Summer Fair!  Our Fair was opened by the Deputy Mayor of Tunbridge Wells and his wife and we were also joined by a very special royal visitor!  It was lovely to see our school community together again enjoying the sunshine, music, dancing, pony rides, bouncy castle, ice creams - AMAZING! A huge Oakley THANK YOU to our PTA for all their hard work, to all our fantastic staff who came and supported and to all the local businesses and community organisations who supported on the day, made donations and gave us discounts - we couldn't have done it without you all.  UPDATE - we raised £3,600 which is A-MAZ-ING!

  

• Tunbridge Wells in Bloom 2022

  Fri 01 Jul 2022

  This morning we were visited by the Tunbridge Wells in Bloom judges.  Our pupils showed them around our grounds and talked to the judges, they were welcoming, friendly and so enthusiastic. The children knew the names of the vegetables and herbs in the garden and ad libbed by saying how amazing they thought everything looked!  We were immensely proud of each and every one of them.

   

  A huge THANK YOU to our Forest School Teacher for all her hard work and to all our Learning Support Assistants who have supported this year - we wouldn't have managed such a great looking garden without their contribution.

   

  Now we just wait for the results which will be announced in September - fingers crossed!
