3HW have been learning about Water Safety in their PSHE lesson this week. We looked at the dangers of swimming in water or when doing water sports. We looked at warning signs and beach flags that are used to keep us safe, these are placed or put up around indoor and outdoor water areas. We later designed water safety posters!

This afternoon we had a visit from the Ambulance Service where the children learned about the job role, the uniform and how and why we might phone 999 in an emergency. The children were taught how to give chest compressions on a resuscitation doll using the correct hand movements. The children listened so well and were very engaged. What a lovely afternoon :)

Today, our Year 6 pupils took part in a really valuable session with Reflexions, focusing on the transition to high school. During the session, the children were given the opportunity to talk openly about any worries or anxieties they may have about moving on to secondary school. They also explored practical strategies to help manage these feelings and build their confidence for this exciting next step.

6R were joined by parents at a wonderful music workshop run by the marvellous Mr Wilcox today. Everyone joined in playing the djembe drums, claves and egg shakers - there was even some impressive singing! The parents put on a great show and much fun was had by all!

1E had a wonderful time this morning sharing their music lesson with parents. The grown ups joined in by singing along and shaking eggs to the rhythm of the music. Mr Wilcox was very impressed and so were we!

We travelled through Wild Asia, The African Lowlands, The Grasslands and The African Plains, and we saw a dazzle of zebras, an angry of Barbary sheep, a tower of giraffes, a parade of elephants, a conspiracy of lemurs, a crash of rhinoceroses and a pride of lions and many, many more. 🐯🐘🦁🐅🦓🐧🦛🦏🦒

Year 6 have been busy acting as real designers, using Tinkercad to create custom micro:bit cases in response to a client brief. They showed great creativity and problem-solving as they developed and refined their 3D designs—fantastic work from our future designers! 👏💻

We all had an amazing day exploring Telford Exotic Zoo. The children were exceptional and we are extremely proud of them all. They were very privileged to hold and stroke different groups of animals. Some of the children were so brave to hold the ‘Hissing Cockroach called Histopher’. They also met Charlie the Frog, Barbeque the hen, Cupid the uromastyx and Tia the skunk.

Today we worked on performance poetry using Michael Rosen’s nonsense poem ‘Help !’. We worked in groups to practise and refine our prosody skills before performing to an audience.

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to the Wednesfield Rotary Club for their generous donation of books to our EYFS classrooms and our new shelf for our Books4Home set up! Their support is already making a real difference, with our after-school Books4Home library proving to be a fantastic success today! It has been wonderful to see pupils enjoying access to new books and developing a love of reading beyond the classroom. If you see our Books4Home Library outside Nurse

I would like to say a huge thank you to the amazing families, children and staff at Wodensfield for all of their support and kindness this term. It has been a joy getting to know you all and I am so excited for another term of fun! Here is a little glimpse of all the fun, laughter and learning we have shared in Nursery this term 😃 Mrs Morris

Our brilliant writers continue to shine and make their teachers, families and themselves proud. Well done to all of our ‘Wonderful Writers’ award winners.

Wodensfield enjoyed celebrating National Numeracy Day. We dressed up and took part in a range of Mathematical activities.

KS2 had an amazing time this morning when Wolverhampton Music School visited school to share with us their instruments and to play as a quartet. The children listened to various, famous pieces and could identify some that they knew. The children were a superb audience and listened intently. They asked thoughtful questions and could describe elements of the music and how the music made them feel.

2H designed their own playground games, using their mathematical skills to calculate a point scoring system.

4I have enjoyed celebrating Numeracy Day.

We have had great fun today celebrating ‘National Numeracy Day’. The children all enjoyed taking part in different activities and playing games.

Year 3 have had great fun today celebrating National Numeracy Day. We have been learning how to tell the time to 5 minutes. We have solved Number puzzles and we have completed a Times Table orienteering task. We have had a great day!

Year 6 have created vibrant oil pastel artwork inspired by the Commonwealth Games, using bold colours and striking silhouettes to celebrate movement, diversity and creativity.

Our children in Year 1 were super proud to take part in the handover of the baton for the Commonwealth games. They all came dressed in blue and white to represent and support Scotland. A memory they will never forget!
