Good morning families.

We will hold our first parent forum meeting of the new academic year on Friday 12th December in school at 9.15am. Our principal will present latest school updates, news and plans for the new school year.

All welcome!

Get ready for some festive fun! FS2 and Nursery are thrilled to present our Winter Sing-a-Long!

Tickets are on sale for just £1 each, and you can grab yours now in the school office!

Mark your calendars for December 15th, with two performances to choose from: 9:30 AM or 2:30 PM.

And here’s the fun part – each ticket will be entered into a raffle for a chance to win some awesome prizes!

Come and join us for a heartwarming celebration filled with song and joy! We can’t wait to see you there!

On 10th December, we’re keeping it simple and sweet—there's no need for donations, just wear your most fabulous Christmas jumper to school!

And don’t forget, a delicious Christmas Dinner will be served in the Dining Room! 🌟

Can’t wait to see everyone’s jumpers and enjoy some great food together!

This week in Nursery, we are reading Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers. The children loved the story of the little boy and the penguin and we decided to learn more about these amazing animals!

We created our very own penguins using different shapes and materials — adding beaks, wings, and feet just like in the story.

We also explored ice and light to see where penguins might live and talked about what makes them special.

We loved seeing the children’s creativity and curiosity come to life through play and storytelling!

Yesterday we welcomed the Sheffield Family Hub into our nursery for a wonderful Play, Chat and Learn workshop

Children and parents explored lots of exciting activities together — from creating colourful artwork and sorting woodland animals, to exploring textures, leaves, and storytelling inspired by We’re Going on a Bear Hunt!

It was lovely to see so many shared moments of learning through play. A big thank you to the Family Hub team and to all our families who joined us!

Good morning, families!

We’re excited to share that our children are having a blast during playtime, and the OPAL project is really taking off! This week, we’re on the lookout for any old musical instruments, wellies and kitchen utensils you no longer use. If you've got any spare items lying around, we’d be absolutely thrilled to give them a new life in our play sessions!

Also, don’t forget to check out some fun snapshots of the kids enjoying their lunchtime activities from last week!

Thank you so much for your ongoing support! You truly make our community awesome!

Many thanks

Our nursery children have been busy building their fine motor skills through a variety of exciting autumn themed activities this week! From threading and tweezing to cutting and tracing, they’ve been strengthening those little hand muscles 💪🎨

These hands-on experiences help prepare children for early writing, self-care skills, and so much more — all while boosting confidence and independence. 🌟

A massive thank you to everyone who joined us for the lantern parade yesterday! What a brilliant afternoon it was, filled with singing, dancing, and a fabulous fire show! Plus, there were so many delicious treats for all to enjoy! Congratulations to our lantern winners too! Another fantastic community event that brought us all together! Can't wait for the next one! #LanternParade
