Clifford Bridge Academy

Year 3 have completed their Outdoor Adventurous Activities unit in PE which was great fun while learning some valuable team work skills. We made hoop castles and even managed to lift them up! As an added challenge, some children crawled through them too!

It's just over a week until Take It To The Bridge take the stage at The Tin in the first of this year's Night of Rock gigs.
Here's a reminder of the ticket link:

It is always a great evening and the children get to experience playing in a 'real' music venue!

What a way to start the final term of the year! Clifford's young pianists and keyboard players will be kicking off our Summer of Music with our Keyboard Concert tomorrow!

I hope everyone is having a lovely half term break and a well deserved rest!
When we come back, we have got a packed half term of music to look forward to, see the attached poster for details.

Choir, pianists, drummers and guitarists - you will all receive letters for the Summer Music Extravaganza when we return from the holidays. You wouldn't want to miss it, we have some very special guest performers coming to Clifford!

What an incredible afternoon at Clifford Bridge for our Colour Run! 🌈 ☀️

With amazing weather, huge smiles all around and clouds of colour everywhere, it was a fantastic way to celebrate the end of term. Children, staff and even a few parents got completely covered in colour… sorry parents! 😄

A huge thank you to everyone involved in planning and organising the event across the school, along with our amazing Clifford Bridge PTFA for all of their support in making the day such a success.

Now it’s time to get cleaned up, relax and enjoy the Bank Holiday weekend and half term! ☀️🎉

This week Year 2 have been creating their own fruit chaat in Design and Technology! They have worked on their skills of chopping, kitchen safety and have been adventurous in trying new flavour combinations and fruits that are unfamiliar to them! Well done Year 2!

We would like to inform you of a special menu change for Census Day on Thursday 21st May. On this day, meal choices are carefully selected to encourage as many pupils as possible to enjoy a school lunch, as this helps support our catering provision and future funding.

Census Day Menu:

Option 1: Chicken Tikka Carnival Wrap please choose Sausage Roll on Arbor
Option 2: Garlic Bread and Grilled Cheese please choose Cheese and Onion Roll on Arbor
We’ve chosen a menu we hope will be especially appealing, and we’d really appreciate your support in promoting school lunches on this day. Increased uptake makes a positive difference and helps us continue to offer a high-quality meal service for everyone.

If your child does not usually have a school meal, this is a great opportunity to give it a try!

Thank you for your continued support.

We are so proud of our incredible Year 6! 🌟 Throughout SATs week, you showed resilience, positivity and determination, tackling each day with such maturity. What stood out most was the way you supported one another with kindness, encouragement and quiet confidence. It was lovely to celebrate together with a well-deserved pizza afternoon, seeing you relax and enjoy time together after such a big week. 🍕 You have been amazing - we couldn’t be prouder. 👏

Bringing magic to our English lessons! 🪄 Year 5 explored the wizarding world, wearing Harry’s glasses and being sorted into houses by the Sorting Hat to inspire their writing. ✨
