Helping every child grow in confidence, kindness & curiosity. ❤️We have an onsite nursery. We are an 'Outstanding' primary school based in the leafy village of Bispham, close to Ormskirk. The staff and governors at Richard Durning's Endowed Primary School believe that the main aim of our school is to help every individual child achieve their very best. We aim to create a warm, caring environment i

n which children feel happy and respected and will be helped to reach their potential. We believe that every child in our school should experience the confidence that comes with success. This page will provide weekly updates to show our current parents what their children have been doing in school. We also hope it will help give an overview of our special school to prospective parents.

Year 5 and 6 have been continuing with our word processing unit in computing. We have learnt how to add mages, format text, add links to say where their images came from, align text, add bullet points with factual information, add tables and word art into documents. Well done everyone.

The children in Hazel Class have finished their amazing Quentin Blake-inspired modroc sculptures! From The BFG to Fantastic Mr Fox, Matilda and Esio Trot, the children worked hard to bring their characters to life. They all look great! 🎨
Afterwards, turned the classroom into an art gallery to evaluate our modroc sculptures! We walked around admiring each other’s work, discussing what went well and giving thoughtful critiques to help improve our artistic skills. The children then posted their comments onto the board and we discussed these together. The children were all so sensible. Well done!

We’ve planted seed bombs in our Hazel Class planter this morning to help the bees! As we’ve been reading Omar, the Bees and Me and learning about the importance of bees, the children loved getting hands-on to help protect them. Although they don’t look very exciting at the moment, they will soon sprout and our planter will be full of beautiful wildflowers! Thank you to Mr Rowley for the fresh soil.🐝🌷🌻

Our Beech Class butterflies have hatched! The children have loved watching the whole life cycle, from tiny caterpillars to chrysalises and now beautiful butterflies. Yesterday we were lucky enough to watch one actually hatch in the classroom and the children were amazed. We released them today, so they can begin their next journey. 🐛🦋
