Reception and Year 1 Trip to Summerwood Farm

Reception and Year 1 children had an amazing day out at Summerwood Farm. In the morning they took part in a nature trail and feed the chickens and collected their eggs. Later on in the day they saw a falcoln show and met Eddie the tortoise and Tilly the Sheepdog. To finish off the day they had a great fun on the bouncy castle, slide and games equipment and a tasty icecream. A huge thank you goes to The Cooke Family and their friends who hosted such a wonderful day for us all.
Police Visit to Lower School
June 2021
On Monday Lower School had a visit from Jai and Helen who work as Police Officers in Liverpool. They talked to the children about how the Police can help us and what a day in the life of a Police Officer is like. They brought in some of their equipment for the children to see and explained how it would be used. The children enjoyed seeing the Police car driving off with it's flashing lights at the end of the assembly!

Lower School Assembly - The Role of a Nurse
May 2021
We had a special visitor in Lower School, Mrs Biggs, who is an A&E Nurse. She talked to the children about what her job in A&E involves and about the roles that Nurses play throughout our city. She also helped us to think about ways of keeping our bodies healthy through exercise and making healthy food choices.
Celebrating Easter
Lower School celebrated Easter in lots of creative ways. We explored the Easter story through special Bible assemblies and took part in role playing some of the events leading up to Good Friday. We made cards and crafts and took part in some cooking activities. We had great fun on an Easter egg hunt!
Christmas Forest School Day
December 2020
Lower School had a special Christmas Forest School Day. We started the day with a woodland reflection focusing on God's creation, collecting lots of natural materials and following a star activity trail We used some of the natural objects that we found to create a range of beautiful Christmas crafts to share with our families. To finish off the day we enjoyed hot chocolate in the woodland area and sang Christmas songs in the open air.
Legend the Donkey
December 2020
The highlight of the Autumn term was a visit from Legend the donkey. He had a starring role in our Nativity play and every child in Lower School had a chance to have a ride and give him a stroke too.
Back to School - Psalm 23
September 2020
On returning to school after lockdown we focused our assemblies on Psalm 23. We learnt that God is our good Shepherd. He knows us by name and he takes good care of us. We helped the children to know that they can talk about anything they feel anxious or worried about with an adult at school or home and they can take these worries to God in prayer too.
