Strikes, Smiles, and Shared Memories - Lansallos Class Bowling Trip

Our Year 6 children from Lansallos Class had a fantastic time last week on their bowling trip! They started off in the arcade, enjoying everything from racing games to claw machines and earning plenty of tokens along the way. There was something for everyone! After lots of fun in the arcade, they played a lively game of bowling, followed by trying their hand at pool. It was a well-deserved treat and a wonderful way to make lasting memories together.

 


 

Talland Class Trip

This half-term, Talland Class have been diving into the magical world of How to Train Your Dragon to inspire their writing. To round off this exciting unit, they enjoyed a special trip to the cinema in Plymouth to watch the latest film in the series.

The children were a credit to the school - their behaviour was exemplary and even drew praise from members of the public.

Well done, Talland Class - a fantastic way to end a fun-filled topic!

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Bond and his associates for their generous donation towards the purchase of sports and play equipment for the children of Pelynt Academy. Your kindness and support have made a meaningful difference in enriching our children' physical education and playtime experiences. Thanks to your contribution, our children now have access to quality equipment that will inspire teamwork, fitness, and fun for years to come. Your generosity is truly appreciated by our entire school community.

Pelynt Primary Sports Personality of the Year 2025

This year, choosing the Pelynt SPOTY found us reaching a unanimous conclusion.  In its inauguration last year, we decided that we would look for not only sporting excellence, but all-round attributes including sportsmanship, teamwork, being an encouraging yet critical friend.  In considering the various traits that make a great 'Pelynt' sportsperson we are pleased to be recognising someone who has all of these traits as well as being supremely talented in sport both in and outside of school. This year she qualified and represented the school at the Cornwall cross county finals, she is an excellent footballer playing for our school team and also part of the Girls elite Plymouth Argyle Team outside of school. This year's Pelynt Academy Sports Personality of the Year Award goes to Elsa Lee. 

 


 

 

Sports Day

A super enjoyable sports day took place this week in rather hot conditions! Thank you to all of the parents and carers who were able to attend and cheer the children on. As always, the children were magnificent, demonstrating excellent sportsmanship. The Blue team were the eventual winner in a close fought contest, winning by only 6 points! A huge thank you to Mr Knight for organising the event.

 


 


Balance Bikes

Mrs Milford has recently attended and completed a course to become out Get Cycling Lead. As a result of this Get Cycling and Bikeability have donated 6 wonderful balance bikes and helmets to the school, enabling us to teach the children to balance and learn to ride as part of our school learning.

 


 

 


Liskeard and Looe Foodbank 





Sarah from the Liskeard and Looe Foodbank joined us at Pelynt this week to promote the work of our local foodbank and go through some basic recipes with the children.

As a school we are able to refer families to the foodbank, including extra support over the summer holidays. If you, or anybody you know, needs support please speak to Mr Hannah, who will be able to organise everything with complete confidentiality.
