Hornby St. Margaret's C of E Primary School

7th July

Art Workshops

On Monday and Tuesday this week we welcomed the local artist Kerry Howarth to come and work with the children in the hall to create a collaborative display based on the countryside. The children had a great time using printing and layering techniques to create patterns and pictures, making felt, creating flowers, making butterflies and bumblebees. Have a look on our Facebook page to see our fabulous creation!

Cluster Rounders Tournament

It was a bit of a drizzly start to the day but then the sun came out for some super games of rounders where everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. The Hornby team came 3^rd and were a pleasure to watch with some real sportsmanship and talent shown. It was also lovely to see them support Leck in the final where Leck won.
