This morning, Beech Class hosted a very special Mother’s Day Breakfast in the classroom, and what a fantastic event it was! We were delighted to welcome so many mums, grandmas and special family members to join us for the celebration.
The turnout was amazing, and it was lovely to see the classroom filled with smiling faces as families enjoyed breakfast together. The children were so excited to share this special time with their loved ones and were very proud to show them their classroom.
There was a wonderful atmosphere throughout the morning, with plenty of chatting, laughter and special moments being shared. Events like this are a lovely way for us to celebrate the important people in our children’s lives and bring our school community together.
A big thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the morning so memorable. We hope all our amazing mums and special guests felt appreciated and had a lovely start to their day.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums and carers in our school community!

Oak Class recently enjoyed a fantastic visit to Todmorden High School last Thursday, where they had the opportunity to experience a pop-up planetarium. The immersive session gave the children an exciting insight into space, as they explored planets, stars and the wider solar system in a fun and interactive way.
The visit supported the children’s learning in science, helping them to develop their understanding of space while sparking curiosity and enthusiasm. The realistic visuals and engaging presentation captured the children’s attention and brought their classroom learning to life.
Oak Class were a credit to the school throughout the visit, showing excellent behaviour and asking thoughtful questions. It was a memorable experience that inspired awe and wonder and will continue to support learning back in the classroom.
