A Royal Coronation! đź‘‘
This week Year 2 brought history to life by re-enacting the coronation. Using the crowns they made themselves, the children took on the roles of King, Queen and Archbishop, carefully following each step of the ceremony from robes and vows to the crowning moment.
Their focus, respect and enthusiasm were wonderful to see. It was a fantastic way to experience British history first-hand.

Year 3 Trip to Hillier Gardens.
Year 3 enjoyed a fantastic trip to Hillier Gardens last week, taking part in an exciting, hands-on exploration of life in the Stone Age.
The children stepped into the role of archaeologists as they excavated artefacts from a trench, carefully identifying, cleaning and categorising their discoveries.
In the afternoon, they immersed themselves in a range of Stone Age activities, including fire lighting, chalk carving, roasting apples over an open fire and making bracelets. It was a thoroughly engaging and memorable experience that brought their learning to life.
Our thanks go to @hilliergardens for providing such a wonderful day of discovery and learning.![Dinosaur discoveries in Pippins. This week, our youngest children in the nursery have been learning...]()
Dinosaur discoveries in Pippins.
This week, our youngest children in the nursery have been learning all about dinosaurs!
They carefully chipped away at dinosaur eggs to see what was hidden inside, rolled and patted playdough, and made colourful dinosaur footprints with paint. Through these playful activities, they were developing their fine motor skills, creativity, and curiosity.
At Salisbury Cathedral School Nursery, learning through play is at the heart of every day.![Exciting opportunities to join our team! PE Teacher & Governor roles. To find out more and to...]()

In Year 1, it is all about hands-on learning!
In maths, the children have been exploring 3D shapes by creating and naming them using a variety of materials. Building shapes was great fun... but making a pyramid out of playdough definitely tested their skills!![Staying Active Whatever the Weather Yesterday, the rain unfortunately stopped our fixtures and...]()
Staying Active Whatever the Weather
Yesterday, the rain unfortunately stopped our fixtures and matches, but that did not stop the children from staying active and engaged.
Instead, they enjoyed music and movement in the school gym, taking part in a Boxercise session led by Mrs Cooke. It was a lively and energetic session, with plenty of enthusiasm and enjoyment throughout.

The Reception children were so excited to share their wonderful independent writing!
Using photos of their families and special memories from home, the children chose their favourite things to write about from our much loved class book.
In Reception, we encourage children to be confident and adventurous writers. They are learning to blend sounds together as part of our Supersonics phonics programme and are supported to have a go, share their ideas and feel proud of every attempt they make.
We are so proud of their fantastic writing and the children are incredibly proud of themselves too!

Choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions you’ll make.
At Salisbury Cathedral School, everything we do begins with your child at our heart.
We are a warm and welcoming prep school where children are truly known and cared for as individuals. Set within the calm of the Cathedral Close, our inspiring environment helps children grow into confident, curious and happy learners.
Perhaps you haven’t considered independent education before or aren’t quite sure how it differs. Many families discover the breadth of opportunities we offer across learning, music, sport, art and outdoor experiences within a joyful, nurturing environment.
If you’re starting to explore schools for your child, we’d love to meet you.

A Special Visit from the Police.
This week, our Nursery children were delighted to welcome a community police officer as part of our People Who Help Us topic. The children learned what to do if they ever get lost, why it is important to know their parents’ full names and address, and enjoyed the exciting opportunity to explore a real police car and the equipment officers use.
Experiences like this help to build confidence, spark curiosity, teach essential safety skills, and support children’s understanding of the world around them through meaningful, hands-on learning.
