LIPA Primary School

Better late than never, here are the photos from our PBL residential to the Lake District . We were looking at whether it is better to live in the countryside or the city. Lots of fun was had by everyone and the kids loved getting in the water and all enjoyed the activities

Sorry we have been so quiet on social media but we have been having such an amazing time at Windermere! We promise there are more photos to follow...

Year 6 have awoken to a cloudy day in Scotland but we have all had a good night's sleep, a traditional Scottish breakfast and are ready for the activities today! Here are some photos of yesterday's activities

Year 1 have really enjoyed exploring the world from the eyes of a refugee. We thought about what we would bring with us if we needed to leave our home, created our own paper suitcases and even practised our packing skills. We also designed our own posters and invitations and talked about how we would welcome someone new into our community.

Year 6 went to the Cathedral yesterday to take part in a transition workshop and leavers service. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you !

Our workshops and service included an assault course, singing and working in groups to think about how we can manage that transition to high school.

Year 2 are having a wonderful day celebrating their Special Agent Graduation! They have all been presented with a certificate, an agent lanyard and a special sticker. We are so impressed with our agents outfits, don't they look incredible?! 😎

Lennon Class (Year 6) have enjoyed their 1940s dance workshop from Sally at SoMi Academy. We learnt a dance to Glenn Miller's 'In the Mood'.

Year 3 had a fantastic day celebrating all things Greek. We learnt how to make our own Greek togas, created our own Greek gods and even tasted some lovely Greek cuisine.

Mr. Parker's weekly assembly has just gone live on our YouTube channel - check out the Y7 focus this week. Lots of lovely information and videos on there about our school too. https://youtu.be/I2vLfaXiLYs

We would like to say a huge well done to our year 7 mathematicians who participated in the UKMT maths challenge in April. We had 2 silver certificate winners, Michael and Iris, who placed in the top 25% in the UK. Amazing work!

Before Easter, 12 pupils from Year 5 and 6 were invited to the Reach Out Graduation! These pupils had completed a 12 week mentoring programme with the Reach Out Team and had been developing different skills such as fairness, good judgement and self control. During the programme they had worked with adult volunteer mentors who had supported them in academic work and also social activities.

The group have worked really hard and so we were all looking forward to the celebration. We started our afternoon in the Everyman Cafe for a celebratory cake. Hannah even played the piano for the other customers! We then carried on to The University of Liverpool.

We were joined by two other local schools and lots of our children received awards for their commitment and hard work to the sessions.

The sun was shining and on the way back to school, we had a stop off to give out the participation certificates.

It was a really lovely afternoon and the children were wonderful ambassadors for our school, Reach Out and themselves!

Last week, the Eco-Council set a whole school competition to design their dream garden. The winners were Enzo - Year 3, Eva - Year 1, Tine - Year 4, and Mati - Year 2
