A huge thank you to our wonderful school community for supporting this collection. Your donations will help our local food bank provide essential supplies to families in need within our local community.

It’s inspiring to see our pupils learning the importance of helping others and making a positive difference. Together, we can support those who need it most.

📏⚽ White Rose Maths in Action – Year 4 Birch Class Measures! ⚽📏

Today in Year 4 we took our learning outside and brought measurement to life!

Using metre rulers, the children worked collaboratively to measure the length and width of our playground football pitch. They had to:

✔️ Align rulers accurately
✔️ Record measurements in metres and centimetres
✔️ Add lengths together to calculate total distances
✔️ Check for accuracy and discuss any discrepancies

There were fantastic mathematical conversations happening:

“Have we started at zero?”
“Is that 4 metres 30 centimetres or 4.3 metres?”
“Let’s remeasure to check!”

By connecting White Rose Maths learning to a real-life context, the children could see why precision matters. Measuring something familiar — like their own football pitch — made the maths meaningful and memorable.

Practical. Purposeful. Problem-solving.

🐉✨ Chinese New Year Celebration! ✨🐉

Today we were all treated to a fantastic Chinese New Year workshop and performance. Birch class are showing the way forward here!

The children loved experiencing the vibrant music, traditional dance and colourful costumes, learning about the meaning behind the celebrations and the importance of family, good fortune and new beginnings.

It was a joyful, energetic performance that truly brought the celebration to life — and a wonderful opportunity for our pupils to deepen their understanding of different cultures and traditions.

A huge thank you to Mrs Hughes for organising such a special experience for our school community! 🌟

🌆🚌 Year 1 & Year 2 Explore London! 🇬🇧✨

What an incredible day in the capital! Our Year 1 and Year 2 children enjoyed a fantastic open-top bus tour through central London, taking in the city’s iconic sights from the top deck.

As we travelled through the heart of London, we spotted famous landmarks including Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, and the London Eye. 👀🏰🎡

Along the way, we learned fascinating facts and stories that brought London’s rich history to life — a brilliant way to connect our learning beyond the classroom!

A day full of discovery, excitement and unforgettable views! 🌟

🎨✨ Abstract Sculpture in Year 4 Birch! ✨🎨

Our young artists have been exploring shape, space and imagination in Lesson 4 of our Sculpture & 3D unit. Today they transformed their sketchbook plans into real abstract sculptures — inspired by the twists, turns and structures of playground equipment!

From choosing how to join materials to adapting ideas when things didn’t go to plan, the children showed brilliant creativity, resilience & problem‑solving. Their 3D artworks are full of movement, balance and bold ideas.

So proud of their artistic risk‑taking and growing confidence in sculpture!

Year 3, 3/4 & Y4 Visit to Shree Jalaram Mandir & Community Centre

Our Year 3 & 4 learners had a fantastic opportunity to deepen their understanding of Hindu beliefs and practices during their visit to Shree Jalaram Mandir & Community Centre.

They explored the symbolism within the Mandir, learned about key Hindu deities, and discussed how values such as kindness, duty and respect shape daily life for many Hindus. The children showed maturity, curiosity and a real enthusiasm for learning from members of our wider community.

🌼🕉️ A meaningful experience that strengthened our RE learning and broadened our understanding of faith, diversity and shared values. 🕉️🌼

Year 1/2 went to Shree Jalaram Mandir & Community Centre to learn about the Hindu culture. The learners had a chance to see the Aarti Ceremony and we had a presentation and taught about the different pillars of the Hindu Culture.

🕉️🌸 Learning beyond the classroom 🌸🕉️

The learners were respectful, curious and asked thoughtful questions, gaining a deeper appreciation of different faiths and traditions. A valuable experience that supported our learning about community, culture and respect 🌍💛
