Edgar Stammers Primary Academy

It has been bought to my attention that there has been some conversations on Facebook regarding a black school jumper for Edgar Stammers. Having called the uniform shop in Walsall, I can confirm they are selling blue jumpers only. Although the school has had new signs put up over the summer, the uniform remains the same. I hope you’re all having a wonderful holiday.

Thank you to all of our families for a wonderful year! Good luck to our year 6 children who are moving onto their next chapter, you have been amazing! Wishing you a fabulous summer ☀️

We are so proud of Declan and Ryan, who have won the Greenheart Learning Partnership KS2 science competition, against 9 other primary schools. This morning they were presented with a certificate and trophy in assembly 💫

Year 4 are having a fun day out at Cannock Chase today.

Year 2 are having an amazing day at the farm. They have enjoyed the tractor ride, entertaining the driver with their singing 🎶

Edgar Stammers Primary Academy is a GOOD school! We were really excited and proud to put up our banner this morning 🎉

I would like to shout out all the children from the KS2 choir who participated in Young Voices in January, as you are now number 6 in the UK Top 10 music charts. As part of the concert, the children sang the song Proud alongside Heather Small which has been recorded and released as a charity single. Please help to support the song by listening to it on the links provided in the comments. Thank you 😊

School will be shut today due to the bad weather ❄️

This year, we decided to do something different by asking our children and their families to recreate their favourite book characters with...potatoes! It was wonderful to celebrate World Book Day with the fantastic potato characters the children worked hard at to create. Each child was given the opportunity to discuss their character and answer questions about their creation. Well done to all of our families; here is a selection.

This afternoon half of class 5R are having a wonderful time at Bloxwich library 📚 📕 🐛

This unfortunate tragedy is a strong reminder of the risks of frozen water this winter. We share our deepest sympathies with the families and friends of the children involved, and extend our thoughts to the wider community.

Areas with frozen ponds, lakes, canals and rivers can be beautiful places to visit during the winter months, however, some people risk their lives by venturing onto frozen water. It may look solid from the surface, but will not hold your weight. Please stay clear of waterways, do not stand on the ice, and keep your pet on a lead.
