Sports Day 2022
Sports Day 2022
We started the day with our Early Years races and in the afternoon Years 1 - 6 competed for their teams to win the Sports Day Trophy.
It was a really fun afternoon and the children, as always, demonstrated amazing perseverance and team spirit.
A huge well done to Freya and Artie who won our Year 6 mile race and congratulations to Sharks who were announced at the end of the afternoon as our winning team.

Super Summer Fair
A royal summer fair
The children enjoyed the competitions, magic and balloons and there were lots of different games to keep them busy.
A huge thank you to the 'Friends' who did a fantastic job, as always, putting the fair together! It was a really wonderful school family event enjoyed by all.

Ripon Theatre Festival
From 23-26 June the city will be welcoming more than 20 professional theatre companies and acts to take part in a remarkable number of events crammed into four days with more than a dozen venues from small back rooms and cafes and to green spaces and city streets.
Many local performers and groups have also stepped up to help bring Festival Saturday to life and to take part in the community Ripon Revue show. The Festival will be about more than just the thrill of live performance, with workshops and interactive events woven into the weekend’s programme too.
