This week’s visit in EYFS was the dentist, the children loved learning all about what happens when you go to the dentist and the role of a dentist. We would like to say a big thank you to Paula who took the time to come and speak with the children. ☺️🦷🪥

KS1 were lucky enough to have the fabulous @dramakidssouthleeds in today! 🎭 We had SO much fun, and I was completely blown away by the talent of our children. David was absolutely awesome, and the children didn’t stop talking about his workshop for the rest of the day! 🌟

A huge thank you to Drama Kids for such a fun and inspiring session! ❤️

WOW!

A huge thank you to our wonderful children, parents and carers for your incredibly kind and generous donations for our Harvest Festival.

We had a lovely afternoon welcoming @lofthousechurch into school for our Harvest celebration. It was wonderful to come together as a school community and reflect on the importance of helping others.

All of your generous donations will be donated to Leeds South and East Foodbank @leedsfoodbank helping to support local families in our community. 🥫❤️

Thank you for helping us to make a difference. 🌟

We had a brilliant afternoon in UKS2 on our Inspiration Day this week! We built our own Chichen Itza pyramids, played a version of Pok-Ta-Pok (which was really tricky!) and created our own Maya glyphs and gods. We are super excited to find out more about the Maya and how they have helped shape our lives today!

UKS2 had an exciting start to the year when they got to taste test various chocolates and toppings as research for their DT this half term. As you can probably tell by some of our faces, some chocolates were more popular than others!

Now we know which flavours we enjoyed, we can make a bar of chocolate for our buddies! 🍫😆

KS1 ran to investigate after a shock announcement was made in the classroom… **a spaceship had crash-landed in our school grounds!** 🚀👽

The children discovered a mysterious spaceship, green slime, green glitter and lots of other strange clues. But who does the spaceship belong to? And where has its owner gone?

We can’t wait to explore this mystery further in our English lessons this week! ✨

🌟 What a wonderful first day in Ruby Class! 🌟
We have had such a lovely day getting to know each other and sharing stories about what we got up to during the holidays. In Maths, we have been grouping and sorting, while in English we have been exploring The Colour Monster. The children had lots of fun creating their own monsters and using our secret pens to discover and write common exception words. ✏️

The children have settled back into school so quickly and are already becoming super confident in their new class. I am so proud of them all and cannot wait for the exciting year ahead!

What a fantastic day at Summer Club! ☀️

Today has been packed with fun – baking, making slime and ‘squishy dumplings’, painting, designing our own pencil cases, and enjoying outdoor play in the sunshine with lots of games including circuits, what time is it Mr Wolf and hide and seek.

We also loved exploring and discovering in our wildlife area. 🌳

A huge thank you to our fabulous PTFA for treating us to such a wonderful end of year celebration with our buddies – a silent disco in the sunshine! ☀️🪩
