Spring is a season of growth, new beginnings and fresh opportunities to learn together. As the days grow brighter and the world begins to bloom, we’ll continue to build our character by showing resilience and taking responsibility for our learning.
By working collaboratively and communicating clearly, we’ll share ideas, listen thoughtfully and achieve more together. There will be lots of opportunities to think critically, solve problems and approach tasks creatively, trying different strategies and learning from mistakes along the way.

Bookbug's Big Quest!
What will you discover with Bookbug? A new favourite song or rhyme? A new story? Or maybe a magical adventure to a Bookbug Session! Bookbug invites little ones to use their imaginations and celebrate their adventures this Bookbug Week.
Bookbug Week is a celebration of everything Bookbug.
The main purpose of the week is to welcome new families who have never heard of Bookbug and haven’t been to a Bookbug Session before.
We run special events across the country to encourage families to make new friends, learn new songs and rhymes, and come together to be part of the Bookbug community. This year Bookbug is proud to participate in the National Year of Reading 2026, a UK-wide campaign led by National Literacy Trust.

As learners move into upper primary, they begin to explore Meta- skills, which build on and align with the 6 C’s. Both frameworks highlight the essential skills and qualities young people need for learning, life, and work.
The three groups of MetaSkills are:
🧑🎓 Self-management – skills like focusing, adapting, taking initiative, and showing integrity.
🤝 Social intelligence – skills like communicating, collaborating, showing empathy, and leading.
💡 Innovation – skills like creativity, curiosity, critical thinking, and sense-making.
Together, the 6 C’s and MetaSkills reinforce one another helping learners to think, create, connect, and adapt. The more they are practiced, the stronger they become.
