🏰 Year 6 Residential Update! 😊

After arriving yesterday, the children enjoyed the climbing wall and a silent disco before settling down for the night. 🧗🎶

Today has been a bit wet, but that hasn’t stopped the fun! The children have taken part in circus skills, archery, trapeze and orienteering. 🎯🤹

This evening, they are looking forward to wide games before bedtime.

Everyone is having a fantastic time and making lots of memories! 📸

🚍 Year 6 Residential Update! 🏰

After stopping at services for lunch, our Year 6 children and staff arrived safely at JCA Condover Hall and have gone straight into their first activities. 😊

Everyone is excited and ready for a few days of adventure, teamwork and fun. We look forward to sharing more updates soon! 📸

🎉 Welcome back to the last half term of this academic year! 🎉

We’ve started the term incredibly busy with our Year 5 swimming boosters and a Times Table Rock Stars competition.

On Tuesday, we were delighted to welcome KatsAct into school to showcase their Musical Theatre School ahead of their after-school club, which runs on Wednesday afternoons. Every year group enjoyed a short session where they warmed up their voices, took part in acting games, built teamwork skills, and learned and performed part of a song from *Matilda*.

The children engaged brilliantly throughout the sessions, and it seems we may have a few budding Keira Knightleys and Daniel Craigs among us! ⭐🎭

There are still spaces available for the after-school club, which runs every Wednesday from 3:10pm–4:10pm. To secure a place, please sign up and make payment via Arbor.

We can’t wait to see what the rest of the half term brings!

And finally, yesterday we had our Sports Day! 🏅☀️

The children took part in a variety of races including sprints 🏃, egg and spoon 🥚🥄, tug of war 💪, and many more!

Well done to all the children for taking part and showing fantastic teamwork and determination 👏⭐ Congratulations to Griffin House for winning this year’s Sports Day 🏆💚

Thank you to all the parents and carers for your support, and a huge thank you to our amazing staff for helping make the day such a success 😊

This week at Wilbury… ⭐ what a busy week we have had!

Children from Years 4 and 6 took part in a special one off workshop 🎨🖌️ The session was creative and discussion led, giving children the chance to share their ideas, explore storytelling through art, and help shape what they would like to see happening at the Broadway Gallery during the summer holidays 🏛️✨

Year 5 have also been enjoying their swimming sessions 🏊💦 and children learnt how to do Pilates 🧘✨
