📚✨ World Book Day 2026! ✨📚
A little late sharing these… our page hasn't been playing nicely recently - sorry for the delay!
We had to show you the amazing classroom doors our staff created for World Book Day. Each door was decorated to celebrate a famous author or story, and the creativity on display was just brilliant! For those of you who have never seen our corridors, we LOVE books and already have numerous designs on our walls!

The children had a fantastic day immersed in books, stories, and the joy of reading. It was wonderful to see so many excited faces and to hear so much book talk around school. ❤️
We hope this enthusiasm continues at home too — reading for pleasure makes such a huge difference, and sharing stories together is one of the best parts of childhood.
Thank you to our staff for their hard work, and to our pupils for their endless enthusiasm for reading.
Happy Belated World Book Day! 🌟📖

🎄💚 The Grinch Came to Town! 💚🎄
What an unforgettable afternoon at Lower Farm! The Grinch paid us a surprise visit and brought plenty of mischief along with him!
He met our amazing pupils and parents, spread some cheeky festive fun, and even took over the office for a while. We’re still not sure how Mr How felt about losing his job for the afternoon… but the Grinch certainly seemed to enjoy being headteacher!
Thank you to everyone who joined in the laughter and festive spirit. Check out the photos below to see all the Grinchy antics, and a huge thank you to Nuneaton Grinch for coming along!
