We kindly ask for your support in capturing moments when your child demonstrates any of the Personal Learning Goals - whether at home, in the park, during outdoor play or in daily routines. For example, if your child shows collaboration while playing outside, you may upload one photo and select the appropriate Personal Goal folder (e.g., “Collaboration”).

Families are welcome to share one photo per week if they wish, highlighting a Personal Goal your child has demonstrated.

Please click on the Padlet link below to share your child’s achievement with our community. This is a wonderful opportunity for children to celebrate their out-of-school achievements and for us to reinforce that their Personal Learning Goals are transferable skills beyond the classroom.

Thank you for supporting the celebration of children’s achievements.

Throughout the week, children explored books linked to their hobbies and interests, sparking enthusiasm and a deeper love of reading. The vibrant Book Café was a highlight, transforming reading into a shared, social experience, with breakfast sessions especially popular. Pupils took part in a range of engaging activities in their Mileposts, including a concertina hobby book in Milepost 1, teddy bear character profiles in Milepost 2 and genre workshops in Milepost 3.  The parade gave children the chance to showcase their creativity, dressing as favourite characters or representing their interests, helping to foster reading for pleasure.  Thank you to all parents for supporting your children during Book Week. Please take a look at some of the photographs from the week.

The children read the book 'The Cafe At The Edge of The Woods' following the book recommendation by Ms Caroline in Y2C during our book week assembly. They discussed the book and thought of the recipes that they could make if they were in charge of a cafe! Enthusiastically, they went on a character hunt to find the characters from the book based on clues hidden around MP1's corridor!

Using our Personal Learning Goals of resilience, collaboration and thinking skills, Year 4 started the unit with an exciting escape room challenge as their Entry Point. Working in pairs and teams, the children tackled 10 chocolate-themed tasks including anagrams, code-breaking puzzles and mazes. They shared ideas effectively, solved problems collaboratively and showed great perseverance as they worked to unlock each level. Along the way, they also began to build key knowledge about chocolate, which will support their learning throughout the unit.

Following this, the children completed a Knowledge Harvest, sharing what they already knew and beginning to explore questions about chocolate. They then took part in a fun Willy Wonka-themed True or False quiz and an interactive Kahoot to test and challenge their existing understanding.

It has been a fantastic and engaging start to the unit and we are looking forward to continuing our exploration of the world of chocolate!

Our intial task of crafting life-like chef hats encouraged endless collaboration and resilience. The highlight was watching children, who had mastered the technique, sharing their skills and understanding with others. A huge thanks to all of our parents for contributing so many delicious types of bread for our 'Bake it' tasting Entry Point. The children took their time to savour smells, textures and of course taste before voting on their favourites. We are all ready to learn more about the processes involved in the journey of food from farm to table.
