Manchester 2026 🚗
A residential visit to Manchester provided the perfect backdrop for three days of exploration, discovery and new experiences for our Lower Heath pupils.
Coming from rural Shropshire, the children were fascinated by the scale and pace of city life. Walking through busy streets, surrounded by towering skyscrapers and colourful street art, was a real eye opener and sparked lots of thoughtful conversations.
The itinerary offered a rich mix of opportunities. Pupils took part in a multi faith workshop and visited the Jewish Museum, helping to deepen their understanding of different beliefs and communities. They also explored museums, an art gallery, the Sea Life Centre and even took on the challenge of a Crystal Maze experience, which tested their teamwork, problem solving and determination.
For many, the standout moment was an evening at the Palace Theatre to watch Annie. The energy, performance and shared excitement made it a truly special experience.
It has been wonderful to see the children step outside their comfort zone, embrace something new and make the most of every opportunity the city had to offer, creating memories that will stay with them for years to come.

We are absolutely delighted to have our link with DCP Drums.
Joe, the children’s teacher, regularly supports them to showcase their learning through performances for the whole school. He is a brilliant advocate for the joy of music, encouraging our pupils to have a go, persevere and truly enjoy making music together.
Learning to play the drums is far from easy. It takes coordination, rhythm, focus and a great deal of practice, and our pupils showed all of these qualities in abundance. We were so proud of the determination and enthusiasm on display.
A huge thank you to Joe and DCP Drums for nurturing a love of music in our school. Experiences like this make such a lasting difference. 🎶🥁

🏇🌟 Equestrian Success for Lower Heath’s Youngest Riders! 🌟🏇
A huge congratulations to Oakley Smith and Aurora Evans-Smith, the newest members of the Lower Heath Equestrian Team, on an incredible achievement at Beaver Hall, Leek!
Competing in the 40cm class, Oakley secured 2nd place and Aurora took 3rd place, with both riders earning qualification for the NSEA Grassroots Finals.
At just 6 and 7 years old, they are the youngest riders from Lower Heath ever to qualify for the finals – a fantastic accomplishment and a testament to their hard work, determination, and love of riding.
Their success means that Lower Heath now has five pony-and-rider combinations heading to the prestigious NSEA Grassroots Finals at the iconic Hickstead Showground this August.
We are incredibly proud of Oakley, Aurora, and all of our equestrian team members, and we wish them the very best of luck for the finals! 🍀🐴

Reflections
As part of our science work this term, we investigated how light can be reflected through the use of mirrors. We used this learning to then make our own periscopes. We had great fun using them to see around corners and over desks. Owls were then able to explain how the periscopes worked through the use of scientific diagrams.
Well done Owls 👍😀🦉💡🔦☀️

A Special Visitor 🦁
During our Reading The Game session this morning, Owl Class had a very special visitor: Blue - the Shrewsbury Town mascot. Blue said hello, checked the children’s work and was a bit mischievous. It was great to see him before he headed back to help STFC with their preparations for the new season.

Lower Heath Sports Day 🏁🏃🏼♂️💨
What a fantastic Sports Day we had this year! Despite the hot weather, the event went ahead with a few adjustments and was a truly joyful occasion. Our children, staff and parents were all brilliant, creating a positive and supportive atmosphere throughout the day. It was wonderful to see every child taking part in a full range of track and field events, showing determination, teamwork and great sportsmanship. The day was finished off perfectly with ice pops to help everyone cool down.
A huge thank you to our staff for organising such a well run and enjoyable sporting event. It was a real celebration of participation, effort and school spirit. 🏃♀️🏃♂️🍦
