Year 1 had a brilliant cooking session with Mrs Cobley. We made Oat biscuits, and they were delicious!
In today's fast-paced world, it is crucial for young individuals to develop a wide range of skills that go beyond academics. Equipping our students with essential life skills prepares them for a successful and well-rounded future. Among these skills, cooking is not only a valuable and practical ability, but it also fosters independence and promotes a healthy lifestyle. 🥰

Exciting opportunity ahead 😀 Come and join Mrs Wood in our new mini sensory classes.

Holyhead’s book fair is open tomorrow and Friday in the school hall.

Year 2 took part in an exciting around the world workshop, where they found out about the continents of the world, and how famous explorers such Amelia Earhart and Christopher Columbus travelled the world to find new discoveries.

Another day out for our year 5 class, exploring life in the Victorian times. An exciting way to start our new E3L topic!

Year 2 had a great first day back dressing up as pirates and taking part in pirate themed activities throughout the day.

Year 1 were in for a BIG surprise when they returned to school! We had a dinosaur appear in our classroom who has left a mysterious egg!
