Phew, what a busy and exciting start to the term in Hummingbird Class 🌻

The children have loved exploring The Tiny Seed by Eric Carle, learning all about how plants grow and what they need to thrive. Inspired by the story, they planted their own sunflower seeds and are already excited to watch, measure, and care for them over the coming weeks.

Alongside this, we have been enjoying singing, phonics work, and creative outdoor play, including chalk flower drawings watered with real water to see the colours change.

This International Women’s Day, we were proud to hear from Niki McGarvey, MATi and Outreach Specialist Advisor, as she shared her reflections on this year’s theme of giving to gain.

When we give opportunity, encouragement and respect, we gain stronger communities, fairer workplaces and brighter futures. Every time we listen, support and open doors for women and girls, progress follows. Equality is not something we lose by sharing, it is something we all gain.

Today, and every day, we choose action, kindness and collaboration, because when women thrive, everyone thrives.

In Guided Reading and every reading opportunity we could find, Kingfishers have been honing their POWER when reading aloud 📖

The children have shown brilliant confidence, volunteering to read to one another and demonstrating fantastic listening, attention, and respect. Their expression and self belief have grown so much, and we are incredibly proud.

What a fantastic afternoon for our annual Colour Run 🌈

It was wonderful to see children and families coming together in the sunshine to celebrate the Hindu Holi Festival while raising money for our children’s chosen charities, Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) and Dogs Trust.

Families joined the fun by showering the children with colourful powder, celebrating themes of good triumphing over evil, the arrival of spring, and new beginnings. The smiles, energy, and sense of community said it all.

If you are able to support our children and the difference they are making, you can donate via our JustGiving page here:

A huge thank you to our staff for organising such a brilliant event and to all our children and families for making it so special.

🌈 It’s nearly time for Lower Heath’s Colour Run! 🌈

Get ready for rainbow clouds, big smiles and the brightest day of our year. Our children are gearing up for their annual Colour Run, and this year they have chosen two amazing charities to support:

🐴 Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA)

🐾 Dogs Trust

They selected these charities after sharing stories in school about how much confidence riding has given them and how much they adore rescue dogs who have found loving homes.

We would love your support. Every donation, big or small, helps our children make a real difference while also raising funds for a special school project they will choose themselves.

💛 Donate here:

Let’s make this the most colourful, joyful community day yet 🌈✨

🎨 Observational Art in Lower Heath! 🎨

In Art, our children have been developing their observational drawing and painting skills. They focused on drawing exactly what they could see rather than what they imagined which is trickier than it sounds!

After this, they explored different watercolour techniques including blending, washing and experimenting with effects to see which methods worked best.
It was a challenging activity, but they approached it with enthusiasm and did brilliantly. We are so proud of their growing confidence and creativity 🌟

🦉 Owl Class Shine for National Telling Week! 🦉

As part of National Telling Week, Owl Class took part in an exciting national online workshop led by writer and rapper Alim Kamara.

The children learned the fundamentals of communicating through rap exploring rhythm, rhyme and the power of words. They had great fun creating their own raps and showcasing their brilliant creativity.

Well done, Owls you were fantastic! 🎤✨

✨ A Magical Skylarks Moment ✨

As we finished for half term, I had to share this wonderful moment.

I had wrapped up my afternoon groups when I looked around the room and noticed something truly special happening. Every child was completely absorbed in purposeful play during COOL time building, creating, collaborating and filling every corner of our classroom with imagination.

It was one of those moments where everything just clicked. The room felt alive, joyful and almost magical.

These are the moments that remind me exactly why I love what I do so thank you. 💛✨
