We’ve had a really busy start to the summer holidays with our HAF and Active Camps! 🌞⚽🎨

We’ll be sharing more photos and videos over the coming days to show you what we’ve been up to so far.

A big thank you to all the families who attended our provision in Boston and Spalding last week. We loved having you with us and are looking forward to another fantastic week!

Last Monday and Tuesday we also welcomed visits from Boston Borough Council and South Holland District Council, who inspected our sites with a particular focus on our food provision.

We’re delighted to share that we achieved a 5⭐ rating at both sites! 🎉

A huge thank you to all our staff for keeping their training up to date and maintaining the highest standards of best practice. We’d also like to thank the schools for their continued support and for working with us to make the best use of their fantastic facilities.

A special thank you to Hawthorn Tree Primary School and Friends of St Norbert's School for their ongoing support. 💙

A few photos from Around the world day

Year 6 - The children thoroughly enjoyed learning about Bulgarian traditions - especially making Martenitsa Friendship bracelets.

Y3 - Took part Cossack dancing in class, A traditional game of stander-stop on the field & created some lovely fact files

Y2 - Celebrating Poland, the children tried some different polish foods and took part in other activities such as colouring!

Y1 - Built Lithuanian flags out of Lego & coloured in their own flags!

We hope the children enjoyed learning about just some of the different countries and cultures that make our school 💚

Spending time outdoors can play an important role in children’s wellbeing, learning, confidence and development.

However, busy routines, safety concerns and limited access to outdoor space can make it harder for families, schools and carers to prioritise time in nature.

Our latest guide shares simple, practical ideas to help children reconnect with the natural world, including:
• Noticing wildlife during everyday routines
• Taking familiar activities outside
• Creating mini adventures
• Growing plants or building nature at home
• Using technology to identify birdsong, insects and wildlife
• Supporting older children with independence and sensible risk-taking

With realistic ideas for all ages, the guide helps make outdoor time feel accessible, enjoyable and worthwhile.
