  • PTA Summer Disco

    Thu 14 Jun 2018
    Tonight the school was brought to life by our very own PTA Summer Disco. The DJ played fantastic music and the children wowed the parents, staff and their peers with their amazing dance moves. We had dance offs between the boys and girls and Miss Nuttall and Mrs Melvin led the KS1 children through the old party classic 'The Music Man'. Everyone who came had a great time and we raised lots of money for our PTA! Massive thanks to the PTA members who organised everything!
  • Year 2 Trip

    Thu 14 Jun 2018
    Today our Year 2 class went to Farmer Ted's in Ormskirk for their end of school trip. This linked all of their learning from their Farm Shop topic and then the trip provided the opportunity to apply a context to their learning. The children took part in pony grooming, meet the Guinea Pigs, a Ferret workshop which included a Ferret race! They also had a tractor ride and looked at a variety of birds! This sounds like a fun-packed day and the children came back smiling and shattered all at the same time! Well done Year 2 on your impeccable behaviour throughout your trip!
  • Reading Detectives

    Wed 13 Jun 2018
    Today children from Year 4 invited their parents and grandparents into school to take part in a Reading Detectives workshop organised by Mrs Dixon and Mrs Rothwell. The children had to find clues, solve them and piece the evidence together in order to solve the crime. They used our very own Year 6 children to play the parts of the villains and suspects! The parents gave fantastic feedback and the winning family was the Parker family so massive congratulations to them! Another successful event held for parents to work alongside their child. Thank you to those that managed to attend.

  • Family Learning Science Session

    Thu 07 Jun 2018
    Today, parents and children could work together on understanding how structures work in Science and what is needed to make a strong one. They also learnt about the properties of materials and built their own structure using coloured spaghetti and marshmallows. The children came back into class and told the rest of the children what they had been doing and it was supported well by parents. A big thank you to those who were able to give up their time and attend.
  • Faith Centre Visit

    Wed 06 Jun 2018
    Today in school, Year 2, 4, 5 and 6 were visited by Mr Anwar and Ruth from Lancashire Faith Service. They came into school to talk to the children about the Islam religion and teach the children all about what is important in the religion and how to be a good Muslim. They brought lots of objects for the children to look at and see first-hand what relics of the religion look like. They then taught the children Arabic and the children got to have a go at writing their names. A wonderful time was had by all and the children were able to gain good insight into the Islamic religion.
