Gods Wonderful World 🌎🌸🪵

🌸🌼🌷 Today some of our Preschool children enjoyed a lovely walk around the school grounds. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ As we explored, the children noticed the beautiful flowers growing around us and took time to admire their bright colours and wonderful shapes. 🌺🌻🌹🌼

🌍✨ The children reflected on how thankful they are for God’s amazing creation and were inspired to hold an impromptu Celebration of the Word 🙏📖 to thank God for the flowers 🌷🌸 and the wonderful world He has made. 🌞☁️🌈🦋🐝

💛 It was a very special moment filled with awe, wonder and appreciation. One child beautifully summed up our thoughts by saying, “I love God’s flowers.” 🌼💐🥰

🌿🌺 We are so proud of the children for recognising the beauty in God’s creation, taking time to pause and appreciate it, and giving thanks for the many blessings around us. 🙏✨💚🌍

This activity supported children’s learning within the EYFS through Communication and Language, Literacy and Understanding the World 🌟

We had such a fun day learning through stories and play 💚

Water Play 💦❤️🥰

Winter weather didn’t stop our preschoolers from enjoying water play outside ❄️💦
The cold didn’t bother us as we splashed, poured, and laughed together, staying active and having fun ☀️🪣
Outdoor play in all seasons helps children build confidence, resilience, and a love for learning 😄🌿

School Council

🧠 💛 World Mental Health Day 2025 💛 🧠 On Friday, our School Council spoke to the whole school about World Mental Health Day and why we were wearing yellow – to show support and raise awareness for mental health. They also launched a Kindness Challenge, encouraging everyone to be extra kind to others throughout the week. It was a lovely reminder that even small acts of kindness can make a big difference

Autumn in our Spiritual Garden

Our children have been out in the Autumn sunshine with our Chair of Governors, Mrs Hunt, planting our Autumn plants. What a fantastic way to spend an Autumn morning, listening to the birds sing as they plant. A huge thank you to Mr and Mrs Hunt for all their help today. We can’t wait to spend some time in here appreciating all their hard work.
