Wacky Wednesdays got off to a fantastic start with the first session, “Parachute Play” 🌈
The children had great fun working together in energetic and imaginative parachute games, bringing lots of laughter and excitement. They fully embraced the theme by wearing colourful wacky animal masks, making the session even more memorable! 🐯🦁🐵

A lovely start to the week with a visit from the library bus 📚
The children were excited to choose their own books for the reading area and thoroughly enjoyed sharing and reading them together with friends—such a fantastic way to inspire a love of reading! 😊

Year 6 had a fantastic time this week taking part in a thought-provoking workshop led by local magistrates.
They learned how the justice system works, explored the importance of laws (and how they link to school rules), and even took part in a mock social media trial! A brilliant opportunity to think carefully about decisions, evidence, and staying responsible online 👏

A severe allergic reaction can develop quickly, so knowing what to do in an emergency is essential.

This week’s guide gives parents, carers and educators a clear overview of adrenaline devices, including EpiPen, Jext and nasal adrenaline.

The guide covers:
• Symptoms affecting the airway, breathing and circulation
• How different adrenaline devices are used
• Why the patient should lie down and remain still
• The importance of calling 999
• Why two devices should always be carried

It also reinforces a vital message: using adrenaline promptly is always better than waiting.

🎨 Year 4 have completed their beautiful ‘Fabric of Nature’ artwork by painting over their glue batik with acrylics. They carefully blended colours to match their design brief—well done! We can’t wait to see the final results after half term. 🌿

🏏 Year 3 were thrilled to finally enjoy a mini cricket game after all the rain we've had! They’ve loved learning about cricket this half term and have developed fantastic skills in throwing, catching, batting and fielding. 👏

We are proud to see Mrs Hill speaking about what a “privilege” it is to lead our school.

From our enthusiastic pupils to our dedicated staff and supportive families, it’s the strong culture of kindness, respect and responsibility that makes our school community so special. 🌟📚

This week we have spoken with the head of Bradshaw Primary School

As part of their PSED learning, the children in Reception explored how to stay safe as pedestrians 🚸 They learned about looking and listening for traffic, using zebra crossings, and waiting for the green man.
They then put their skills into practice on a walk, staying close to adults, holding hands and keeping safe near the road.

🐝 National Bee Day at Bradshaw 🌼
On Wednesday, we celebrated National Bee Day here at Bradshaw—an especially meaningful day for us, as the bee is such an important emblem of our school community.
Throughout the day, pupils enjoyed learning more about these incredible creatures and reflected on our recent Earth Day discussions, recognising just how vital bees are to our environment.
The children explored ways we can all help by creating bee-friendly habitats and supporting pollinators. We hope you’ll join us by planting the seeds we’ve sent home and creating your own little bee-friendly corner—every small step makes a big difference! 🌱🐝
