Little Lives Charity Day 

Every year, Manor Park aims to support 3 charities. This year, one of the charities that the School Council has chosen to support is ‘Little Lives UK’. ‘Little Lives’ supports disabled and disadvantaged children and young people to help them build stronger futures. To show our support for the care they offer, we are going to have a pyjama day on Friday 9th May 2025 for the children. As part of this special day, we ask the children to donate £1 to this worthy charity. Staff will have buckets to collect donations on the doors in the morning. You can also donate via Arbor.

Many thanks for your continuous support.

Apply a high factor sun cream to your child before they come to school (please do not send creams into school).

Blooming Fun at RHS Wisley for Manor Park Pupils

Our pupils at Manor Park School had a truly wonderful day earlier this week during their visit to RHS Wisley! The morning was filled with excitement as they participated in a fascinating seed-planting workshop, getting their hands wonderfully muddy. Following this, the children thoroughly enjoyed exploring the beautiful and diverse gardens, taking in the various sights and scents around them. During their natural art session, they used found materials to create unique masterpieces. It was a truly memorable and enriching experience for everyone involved. 

Year 3's Roman Adventure at Painshill!

Earlier this week, our Year 3 children embarked on a fascinating journey back in time as they became Roaming Romans during their visit to the beautiful Painshill Park. The highlight of the morning was undoubtedly completing the Roman trail, where their keen eyes and problem-solving skills led them to recover the buried treasure! They were also captivated by the sparkling wonders of the Crystal Grotto. In an engaging workshop, the children gained incredible insights into the daily lives of people living in Roman times, bringing history vividly to life. After a busy morning of exploration, the children enjoyed a wonderful afternoon walk, following the scenic river path to once again marvel at the enchanting Crystal Grotto. It was a truly memorable and enriching experience for all involved.  

Mini Beast Exploration in Reception This Week!

This week was buzzing with mini beast adventures across the school! Our Reception children got creative outdoors, constructing their very own intricate spider webs in the garden as part of their 'Creep and Crawl' topic. Meanwhile, the children in Jet class were busy developing their numeracy skills by crafting caterpillar number lines, carefully ordering the numbers from one to twenty. These hands-on activities beautifully complemented our whole-school focus on mini beasts, bringing learning to life in engaging and memorable ways. It was wonderful to see such enthusiasm and joy for learning amongst our young pupils. A truly fun and educational week for all involved! 

LEO Explorers are: Curious
