Good Luck Mr Davies

It is with mixed emotions that we say goodbye to Mr Davies as he embarks on an exciting new chapter.

Having been part of The Captain Webb team for over 10 years, Mr Davies has made a lasting impact on the lives of so many children and colleagues. He will be greatly missed by everyone who has had the pleasure of working and learning alongside him.

We thank him for all his hard work, support and dedication over the years, and we wish him the very best in his new role. We look forward to hearing all about his future successes.

From all of us at The Captain Webb, thank you and good luck, Mr Davies! 🍀

Year 2 Monster Mayhem

Back in spring our Year 2 pupils entered a competition where they had to design and draw their very own monster. Some of our pupils were lucky enough to have their designs published in the book MONSTER MAYHEM, which is now in our school library. We are very proud of them all!

Wow, how amazing was Captain Webb’s Got Talent this year?! We love putting on CWGT as it is a wonderful celebration of the incredible talents, creativity, and confidence of our pupils. We would like to say a huge thank you to every child who auditioned and took part. It takes courage to step onto a stage and perform in front of others, and every single participant should be incredibly proud of themselves.

Haberdashers’ Adams Band Delights Captain Webb Pupils

Captain Webb Primary School was delighted to welcome the Haberdashers’ Adams School Band for a special musical performance. The band, made up of 16 talented secondary school students, visited the school to share their love of music and perform a selection of songs for the children.

This wonderful opportunity was made possible through the ongoing partnership between Captain Webb and Haberdashers and their outreach lead, Dr Kate Hibbs, she works with a group of Year 5 pupils throughout the year. Thanks to her support and collaboration with Haberdashers’ Adams, our pupils were able to enjoy a memorable live music experience.

The band played a variety of engaging and enjoyable pieces, showcasing both their musical talent and enthusiasm. The children listened attentively and were thoroughly entertained by the performance, responding with great excitement and appreciation throughout.

Events such as this provide valuable opportunities for pupils to experience live music and to see older students demonstrating the rewards of dedication, teamwork and practice. It was inspiring for our children to watch the musicians perform with such confidence and skill.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the students of Haberdashers’ Adams School Band and to Dr Kate Hibbs for organising this special visit. It was a fantastic experience that brought great enjoyment to our pupils and created lasting memories for everyone involved.

Year 4 Girls Crossbar Cup

On Thursday the Year 4 girls took part in the final Crossbar Cup of the year at Lilleshall National Sports Centre.

In the group stage they played 6 games, winning 3, drawing 2 and only losing 1 game meaning we finished in 4^th place and qualifying for the semi finals of the plate competition.

After drawing 0-0 in the semis, we won via a penalty shootout securing a place in the final. A 1-1 draw against Old Park meant yet again we went to a penalty shootout which we managed to win 3-2 and therefore won the Crossbar Plate!

The girls played some amazing football and scored some fantastic goals even in the difficult temperatures.

Year 2 Boys Crossbar Cup

On Wednesday the Year 2 boys took part in the penultimate Crossbar Cup of the summer, for some of them it was their first time representing the school!

After some tricky games in the group stage (only losing 1 game out of 5!) we finished 3rd, giving us a spot in the semi final of the plate competition.

After a comfortable victory in the semis, we went through to the final against a very good Hollinswood team who unfortunately scored a fantastic goal to defeat us 1-0.

Whilst the boys were disappointed to lose in the final, they should be extremely proud of themselves for leaving with silver medals in a tournament with so many quality teams.
