🏆 Award-Winning P

Kingfisher's first residential trip to PGL happened this June and the children are still talking about it! The Year 3 and 4 children were an absolute credit to our school. They were wonderfully behaved, looked after one another, showed kindness and encouragement, and made all of the adults incredibly proud.

During the trip, the children challenged themselves with activities including abseiling, Aeroball, rock climbing and mini-scootering. We also enjoyed a lovely campfire evening with stories and hot chocolate before settling into our cabins. The children loved the experience of sharing rooms with their friends and having a little extra independence. For many of our children, this was their first residential trip, and what a memorable experience it was!

The PGL staff were so impressed by the children's attitude, determination and resilience throughout their stay that every child received a certificate to recognise their achievements. Well done, Kingfishers – you truly deserved it! 🌟

At Lower Heath, we are lucky to have some amazing grounds that make playtimes and lunchtimes extra special!

Our children love making the most of everything on offer, from scaling our climbing walls and enjoying Wimbledon-inspired tennis, to getting involved in dance clubs with friends. For those who prefer a quieter moment, our beautiful spiritual garden provides the perfect place for activities such as a classic game of Heads Down, Thumbs Up or simply spending time reflecting and relaxing.

We believe that playtimes are an important part of the school day, helping children to stay active, build friendships and create happy memories.

Why not come and see what Lower Heath has to offer? We'd love to show you around and share what makes our school such a special place to learn, play and grow. Contact us to book in your tour now: lowerheath.co.uk/communications/

☀️🎪 What a wonderful Summer Fair! 🎪☀️

Although our Summer Fair had to be postponed due to the hot spell, it was certainly worth the wait. It was fantastic to see our school community come together for such a brilliant afternoon of fun, laughter and celebration. We were especially pleased to continue our cherished tradition of Maypole dancing, with the children performing beautifully and showcasing a much-loved part of Lower Heath's heritage. This year, we were delighted to join forces with Fauls PCC, helping to strengthen the links between our school, church and wider community.
There was something for everyone, from the human fruit machine, which proved to be a huge hit, to fantastic face painting, games, raffles and an incredible selection of delicious homemade cakes. Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered and supported the event.

Most importantly, it was a lovely opportunity to spend time together and celebrate another successful year at Lower Heath. Events like these remind us what a special school community we have.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! 💙💛

As we reshare our Learning for Life Framework animation, we're proud to highlight how our schools work together to ensure every child receives the right support, at the right time, in the right setting.

At The Marches Academy Trust, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. Our Learning for Life Framework helps us create inclusive, nurturing environments where children and young people can succeed academically, socially and emotionally, regardless of their starting point.

Maypole Tradition 💃🏼

At Lower Heath, we strongly believe in giving children opportunities to develop their leadership qualities. This was seen in abundance recently when 3 of our Year 5/6 Movement Mentors: Lauren, Issy and Hattie, ran playtime and lunchtime sessions teaching maypole dancing skills to Year 3 and 4 children. Great initiative and leadership was shown.
Thank you to our wonderful Movement Mentors for inspiring the next generation of maypole dancers.
