Thank a Teacher

Sending a huge thank you to Miss Lewis, our year 1 queen. She is the champion of phonics and works so hard to improve reading across the school. Miss Lewis is our D&T leader, who ensures all the teachers know what they are doing. Thank you Miss Lewis for all that you do. To infinity and beyond! 


Celebrating National Teams

To celebrate the World Cup 2026 and the pride of our national teams, we are allowing our pupils to wear national tops all the way through the tournament. We just love the diversity we have and it is important to celebrate that, whether they are in the World Cup or not. 


IROCK Rocks!

Shannon from iRock came into school today to help the school create a rock band. The children were enthralled! They clapped, sang, waved and swayed in time with the instruments and thoroughly enjoyed the rendition of We Will Rock You!


Tremendous Toys

This half term, our topic is ‘Tremendous Toys: Have You Got This Toy at Home?’. Throughout the topic, pupils will explore how toys have evolved over time, comparing the toys enjoyed by their grandparents with the toys children play with today. They will have the opportunity to handle and investigate a range of traditional toys, helping them to understand how materials, design and technology have changed over the years. Using their Design and Technology (D&T) skills, pupils will also design and make their own moving toy.


Science at Imagine That!

Today, the children enjoyed an exciting educational visit to Imagine That! in Liverpool, where they took part in a range of fun and interactive science activities. Throughout the day, the children explored the different areas of the attraction and became young scientists as they investigated, experimented and discovered new things through hands-on learning.


Careers & jobs at Imagine That!

As part of our Careers Week celebrations, our children enjoyed an exciting visit to Imagine That! in Liverpool. The trip gave the children a wonderful opportunity to explore the world of work through imaginative role play and hands-on activities. The children stepped into the shoes of lots of different professionals as they explored the fantastic Imagination Village. They loved pretending to work in a variety of jobs and careers, developing their communication, teamwork and creativity skills along the way.
