During their final Forest School session of the half term, KG2 used their imagination to pretend that they were camping in the glorious outdoors. They could climb into a sleeping bag or hammock and listen to the sounds around them and then cook breakfast on a pretend campfire. They enjoyed looking for animal footprints, making...

On Tuesday KG2 had their first trip out of school. As part of our topic, animals changing and growing, we visited Knowsley Safari Park. We left Branwood once we were all ready and got onto our coach. Once we had our seatbelts on, and Mrs Boulton had counted us a hundred times, we were off....

KG2 have been reading the book ‘Mr Wolf’s pancakes’ this week. They have written about pancakes, learning about adjectives and have experimented with different fillings. The children all agreed that the best part of the literacy lessons this week was eating the pancakes!

The children really did do us proud this week when they took part in our Mother’s Day assembly. They joined Form 1 to celebrate just how wonderful our mums are. Each child had painted a picture of their mum, thought very hard about why they are special and practised singing some songs. They showed the...
