A small group of our super Year 6 pupils attended a writing workshop at Wolverhampton's Art Gallery today based around the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition. The workshop, hosted by Wolverhampton Council's CLL team, taught the children about using sentences of varying length, different cohesive devices, purposeful vocabulary and circular endings to a story. The children loved looking at the wonderful wildlife photos and all chose one to base their own writing on. A

Our talented STEM Racing Club members brought festive fun and creativity to this year’s Christmas Fair by running their own stalls! Visitors enjoyed exciting activities like ‘Bouncy Ball or Brussels Sprouts’ and Christmas bauble decorating, while browsing a selection of crochet, baked goods and balloons. Thanks to their hard work and enthusiasm, the club raised an amazing £101.81! All proceeds will go towards costumes and materials for the upcoming STEM Racing Regional Final.

Well done to our Junior Choir for their beautiful singing at St Thomas’ Church. It was a lovely way to begin our Christmas celebrations.

We recently hosted a  Parent-Child Online Safety Workshop for our KS2 families.

After the activities, Patrick Flynn from Online Behaviours delivered an insightful session for parents on the dangers of being online . Key topics included: Artificial Intelligence (AI) – understanding how AI tools can be misused and how to u

In their English lessons, the Year 6 children have been writing persuasive speeches to persuade the Headteacher that Saturday school must not go ahead. They worked in teams to write a speech and presented it to their classmates. They delivered powerful and convincing speeches, which were wonderful to hear. Well done Year 6. Let’s hope our weekends remain untouched!!!

Year 6 took part in a Now Press Play experience all about the Maya civilisation. Through storytelling, they explored Maya culture and achievements, bringing History to life.

As part of a local authority initiative ending on Children in Need day, a group of our Year 6 pupils have worked incredibly hard to produce a wonderful collaborative piece of writing based on a proverb from around the world. The children chose the proverb "A single bracelet does not jingle" and have crafted an excellent written piece around this, which also includes an array of higher-level sentence structures and punctuation. We are extremely proud of the children's efforts.

The Year 6’s have loved learning about the amazing digestive system and enjoyed (well, most of them!) looking at how food travels through the digestive tract. We hope you enjoy the photos!

School Council would like to take the time to say a huge thank you to all of the children who brought in a donation for the shoebox appeal in support of Operation Christmas Child. The gifts that you provided will go a long way to help support a child who does not have much.

To mark Remembrance Day, Year 6 pupils created stunning oil pastel pictures of poppies. They explored blending techniques to achieve rich, vibrant colours and smooth transitions, bringing their artwork to life.  We are so proud of their creativity and effort! Take a look at some of their beautiful pieces below:

Year 6 used TinkerCAD to design a building that would improve the lives of people in their community. They thought about how the building would look, what smart or environmentally friendly features it might have, and how it would be used. We entered our designs in the TechStars Digital Design Competition, where the children were judged on their creativity and their use of digital design tools. Have a look at their designs. Well done to Luca, who won the competition with her P

A team of Year 6 children took part in the What on Earth! quiz today, run by What on Earth! magazine. Each heat included three rounds of multiple-choice questions for the team to work through. We were really proud of our team of four and will await the results!

Maya "chocolatl" refers to the ancient Maya’s spiced, bitter chocolate drink. It was consumed in ceremonies and was considered a sacred gift from the gods, used for energy, and even as currency. Unlike modern hot chocolate, the original beverage was unsweetened and often very spicy.  Today, Year 6 tasted some Maya hot chocolatl as they were learning about the history of chocolate. As you can see from the photos, some children enjoyed it, but most did not!

It was a pleasure to recognise the achievements of some of our writers in today's Wonderful Writers' assembly. Each child won a special gold pencil and a certificate for their efforts. Well done to all of our wonderful writers, including our winners.
