Higher Walton CE Primary School / Nursery

Busy, busy! Some of our practical lessons from across the junior classes in Summer term 1 including taste testing, investigating and baking.

A Year 5/6 look back to summer term 1 when they completed their moving toys in DT. Don’t they look proud of their hard work 😊

A look back to summer term 1 when our Year 1/2 class welcomed their family and friends to worship. The children shared the work they had been doing throughout the half term with photos, readings and dance!

Thank you to all the parents, friends and relatives who attended.

A little late in posting, however here are our year 6 children celebrating the end of SATs. They have worked extremely hard, and showed great concentration and determination throughout the tests. A well deserved party and fun activities concluded the week 🥳🎉

On Friday our Year 1/2 class visited All Saints Church to learn about Pentecost and Ascension at various prayer stations around Church. Thank you to Rev Hannah and the All Saints team for giving our children this experience. They really enjoyed their visit

🌟 Well done to this week’s award winners from each of our classes for Star of the Week, Values in Practice and Star Reader of the week 🌟

We also gave a big ‘well done’ to our Year 6 children for completing their SATs this week. They showed great determination, concentration and tenacity! 👏👏

Our school Gardening Club "Bloom and Grow" has officially started for the Summer term, and the children have enjoyed preparing our outdoor area for planting. We have been busy clearing out and tidying the planters, pulling out weeds, removing old plants, and turning over the soil so it is ready for new flowers, herbs, and vegetables. The children have enjoyed working together, learning about how gardens grow, and taking care of our school environment.

Our youngest children enjoyed creating beautiful petal mandala suncatchers as part of their “Spring into Life” topic. Using natural materials such as petals and leaves, the children carefully explored colour, shape, pattern, and symmetry while designing their own unique creations. They used paper plates and sticky back plastic to assemble their suncatchers, developing fine motor skills through peeling, placing, and arranging the delicate materials.

The children were very proud to see their finished suncatchers displayed hanging in our classroom and from the windows, where the light shines through them beautifully!

Well done to this week’s awards for Star of the Week, VIP and Reader of the Week from each class. 👏👏

Thank you to the wonderful children, staff and families of HWPS for their hard work and support this week.

All smiles for the weekend 😁
