The children had a wonderful time on their trip to London last Friday! 🇬🇧

They thoroughly enjoyed exploring both the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Natural History Museum, discovering fascinating exhibits and learning lots along the way. It was a fantastic day filled with curiosity, excitement, and unforgettable experiences!

🚍 London Trip Update

Our coach is currently running behind schedule and is now expected to arrive back at Valley Primary Academy at approximately 8:15pm.

Parents and carers collecting children are kindly reminded not to park directly outside the school entrance, as the coach will require sufficient space to safely access the site and park.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation. We will provide a further update if there are any additional delays.

A big thank you to all our Oak Class parents who joined us for our Parent Café on Thursday 4th June! It was wonderful to see so many families come together to explore what the children have been learning and to really get stuck in, quite literally in some cases, thanks to the sticky honey! 🍯😊

We love sharing these special moments with you!

Please check the comments to see some of the amazing feedback which we received! :)
