Year 7 Football Huge Congratulations to the Year 7 Rock Road team who won the District title.
During the session the pupils worked with various media from photography shoots, sewing, drawing, printing and painting to create amazing mixed media collages. There was a lot of energy in the room and Mrs Modder and Mr Huffman loved all the enthusiasm! The resulting artwork will be displayed at The Ropetackle Art Centre, Shoreham on 21st March. A massive thank you to Friend of Steyning Grammar School (FoSGS) for their very generous contribution towards our new equipment. Our cheerleaders and gymnasts have loved using them this week!

Library visits & World Book Day - 5th March Years 3 and 4 have library visits taking place in March and April. The classes will walk to Storrington library where they can borrow books and find out about the other useful services available. World Book Day is on Thursday 5th March. The theme this year is ‘share a story’ and the children will be sharing their favourite books with others across the school. Rather than dressing up this year, the children can come in wearing their own comfy clothes or pyjamas. Each child can bring in a book to share, it might be a story, a poetry book or an information book. They can also bring in a cushion or pillow to sit on whilst sharing their book during the day. Parents and carers are also invited to join the school between 8:40 and 9:10am when there will be a giant ‘share a story’ time. Parents can join their child’s class and pre-school siblings are also welcome. 01903 742047 www.storringtonprimary.co.uk
