Y3&4 were very excited to learn that they were getting a class aquarium this week! We are taking part in Fishkeeper Fry 2026, developing the next generation of fish keepers!
Over the next 8 weeks, the class will learn how to be efficient and successful fish keepers, take care of the aquarium and add a range of tropical fish and creatures to our tank. This week, we set up the aquarium including cleaning and adding gravel, putting in some ornaments, filling up the tank and adding the correct amount of water conditioner. A big thank you to Maidenhead Aquatics at Carlisle Dobbies for providing all the equipment, tank, gravel, ornaments and plants. The children can’t wait to get their first fish!
A big well done to our fish keepers of the week! Keep a look out to see how the class get on next week!

Harvey has been extremely excited !
We are very excited to share that Flimby Primary School will be getting a visit from a Paralympian! Callum Deboys, double winter Paralympian in Nordic Skiing will be visiting the children on 25th February. He’ll be sharing his inspirational story and taking questions. He’ll then lead a sponsored exercise circuit, where children will complete as many exercises at each station as they can in the time limit.
60% of the sponsorship money raised will be going straight back to school to benefit our children, with the other 40% going to the Sport for Champions organisation who support aspiring athletes to achieve their dreams of competing.
Sponsorship forms have been given to children or you can sponsor your child directly using our CrowdFunder link below. Thank you for your support!

Year 3&4 had a very special visitor on Wednesday! Ernie the dog came to see the children to kick off their new English topic. The children came up with some wonderful vocabulary to describe him and Ernie helped them get into character, ready for their new piece of writing.

Yesterday we had a very special visit from one of the tractors that took part in the Tractor Run! 🚜 The children even had the chance to sit in the tractor and experience what it’s like. We also got to meet and gently stroke some adorable lambs 🐑 - the children loved it!

Big thanks to our amazing Mini Police!
They joined PSCO Kerry and Zara in the yard at home time, handing out posters and leaflets to encourage parents to park responsibly and keep everyone safe.
The children were also spreading 12 important safety messages:
* Park responsibly
* Always be safe
* Turn off engines when leaving your vehicle
* Always use your Green Cross Code
* Leave in plenty of time
* Don’t park on double yellow lines
* Don’t block pavements
* Don’t block drives
* Slow down
* Keep your children nearby when crossing roads
* Kill speed
* Be cautious while you’re driving

Our Year 5 and 6 children have been busy crafting adorable pompom sheep as part of the Cumbrian Award. Today, we proudly used their creations to decorate a beautiful tree at St Mary’s Church. These charming sheep will also be available for purchase at our Christmas Fayre on Monday. We’d love to see you there—come along and support our talented pupils!
