Reception MP enjoyed a visit from the Ambulance service this week. They enjoyed listening to what the job role is, what the uniform looks like and how they help people. Thank you to the ladies for a lovely afternoon!

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
