Members from the winning class of the highest attendance in the week, take part in the much-coveted Classopoly, winning a prize. Much to the class pupils' delight, their win is to have reading time in the forest area on a day of their choice.

Another big round applause is given for members of the school basketball team, who this year saw their first time competing. Mr Jones also announces the school has secured new sports equipment, including basketballs.

One of the biggest celebrations was saved for an achievement the school is incredibly proud of, winning the National Nurture Schools Award.
This was the result of two years hard work based around the school's provision for nurture and wellbeing. During their inspection for the award, everything was deemed 'fantastic'.

The school's efforts have been considered so good, they have been asked to be an ambassador school for the UK, with the video they produced to be shown in classrooms across the country.
In true Fun Friday style, the assembly ends on a high note, with a sing-a-long moment, Under the Sea, from The Little Mermaid, inspired by the theme of World Ocean Day.
Yeva Parry, Jasper Halfpenny, Isabella Kendrick and Libby Harrison show off their school mural.
Teacher Laura Cartwright's class, many of whom are in their Year 6 leavers' hoodies, end the morning talking with Leader community content editor Claire Pierce about life at a newspaper and the power of social media.
No visit to the school is complete without admiring the mural, created with the help of artist Andy Birch, and featuring lots of local landmarks.
It's fair to say the school, which currently has 95 pupils, lives up to the declaration by one student that "we might be small but we are mighty".
