Gotta Dance 2025

26th November 2025Mr R YOUSON

On Tuesday evening, our amazing dance team took to the stage at the Albany Theatre to take part in Gotta Dance Coventry 2025. The girls have been practising their two routines every Tuesday morning with Miss Jade, and all their hard work and dedication really paid off. Their performance was absolutely spectacular!

For many of the girls, this was their first time taking part in the event and, for some, their very first time performing on stage — but you would never have known. They were confident, professional, and full of energy from start to finish.

A huge thank you goes to Miss Jade from Elite Dance Academy for her time, creativity, and enthusiasm in preparing the team so brilliantly.

Well done, girls!

You were incredible, and we are already looking forward to next year’s show, which will take place on Thursday 26th November.

22nd November 2025Rochelle Cocksworth

On Friday, Year 3 &4 merged together across the two classrooms for some paired reading. They enjoyed sharing a wide range of books and helping each other a little along the way too. Great team work Year 3 & 4!

Panathlon

14th November 2025Mr R YOUSON

On Wednesday morning, four lucky children from KS2 took part in a Panathlon event at the Xcel Centre. They joined up with Eastern Green to make a team of eight and competed in a range of activities including kurling, basketball, and bowling. They all walked away with a medal after finishing in a fantastic 3rd place. Well done to all involved — you represented our school brilliantly!

Year 5 & 6 Football Match vs Earlsdon

24th October 2025Mr R YOUSON

On Thursday, our Year 5 and 6 football team were back in action — this time with a new group of children taking part. They faced a very strong Earlsdon side, and for several of our players, it was their first ever competitive match!

The team played brilliantly, showing great enthusiasm, teamwork, and developing skills throughout the game. Although the final score didn’t go our way, with a 5–1 loss, we were incredibly proud of how the children conducted themselves and the determination they showed right to the final whistle.

Well done, everyone — a fantastic effort!

Year 5 Values Dodgeball Tournament

23rd October 2025Mr R YOUSON

On Wednesday, eight children from Year 5 took part in a Values Dodgeball Tournament. In this event, winning wasn’t the main focus — instead, teams earned points for demonstrating respect, honesty, and teamwork throughout their matches.

Although we didn’t come away with a win, the children gave it their all and truly embodied the spirit of the competition. They showed fantastic sportsmanship and represented the school brilliantly — well done, everyone!

Year 6 Take on the HADO Challenge!

23rd October 2025Mr R YOUSON

Also on Wednesday, nine children from Year 6 took part in an exciting HADO competition, splitting into three teams. HADO is an augmented reality version of dodgeball, combining technology with physical activity — and the children absolutely loved it!

They had a fantastic time learning how to use the AR equipment and bringing their dodgeball skills into a whole new setting. One of our teams even made it through to the final of their group, narrowly missing out on the win after a very close match.

A brilliant experience for all involved — well done, Year 6!

23rd October 2025Mr R YOUSON

On Tuesday, our Year 5 and 6 football team played in the first round of the Catholic Primary Schools Cup against St Anne’s. The team put in a brilliant performance, showing great teamwork, determination, and skill throughout what was a very tough match.

Their hard work paid off with a fantastic 3–0 victory, securing a well-deserved place in the second round of the cup.

Rudy (Year 6) was named Player of the Match by the opposition

Well done, everyone — a great start to the competition!

Year 6 Scratch Project

17th October 2025Mr R YOUSON

This term in Computing, Year 6 have been using Scratch to create their own versions of the classic Pong game. Their focus has been on variables — an important concept in programming.

The games include several variables they’ve created themselves, such as time, speed, score, and high score. The children have also built on their previous knowledge to design new sprites, add sound effects, and create different backgrounds to make each game unique.

Below are three examples of their work — have a go and see if you can beat the high score!

 

 

 

Anglo-Saxon Adventures at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery!

16th October 2025Fiona Kirrane

We had an exciting day visiting the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery to explore the Staffordshire Hoard collection of Anglo Saxon gold and to learn all about the life and times of the Anglo Saxons.

We were given the opportunity to examine cow horns, swords, goblets, weaponry and even tried on original Anglo Saxon armour! One of the absolute highlights of the day was going to battle with one another in a magnificent shield-wall war!

The children were incredibly enthusiastic throughout the session and asked many inquisitive questions.

After the session we had some free time to explore the Art Gallery, where we viewed the ‘Giants’ exhibition and went on a pre-historic journey to learn about animals that roamed the earth over 66 million years ago.

Well done Year 5 for navigating the train journey and Birmingham city centre so carefully on our visit and for working together to make such a fun-filled day!

A special thank you to Ed and Will from #BirminghamMuseumandArtGallery for making the morning so engaging for the children!  #visitbirmingham

 

Park Run Success!

13th October 2025Mr R YOUSON

Thank you to everyone who joined the Park Run yesterday — our very first as the All Souls Group! It was my first time attending a Park Run, and I was really impressed by how well it was organised. The atmosphere was fantastic, the setup was seamless, and best of all — it’s completely free!

Next week is an exciting one, as the War Memorial Park Run will be celebrating its 200th event! They’re marking the occasion with a special celebration, complete with cakes/sweets for the runners.

It would be wonderful to see even more of our All Souls runners taking part next week and joining in the festivities.
