Year One Leopards have a real star in their midst! This young lady performed wonderfully in whole school assembly (audience approximately 210), singing one of her favourite songs! Those present are sure to remember her wonderful singing and look forward to an encore!

Birkwood’s current Year 5 and Year 6 classroom had fabulous makeovers during the Easter Break. Thanks to the photography of Mr. Jones, we can see just how much work was done during the holiday. We are sure Miss Edwards is enjoying her new surroundings and the children have given them the thumbs up. Thanks to Mrs. Allen and our Governing Body for commissioning yet more fabulous improvements to our learning environment!

Class 3 & 4 reading together

Class 3 children were paired with Class 4 children for an afternoon of structured reading activites. The children were given opportunity to share their reading skills whilst enjoying each other’s company.

Getting Creative in Y3

A group of children in Class 3 spent their day being creative; they enjoyed reading and writing about the Ancient Greek Myth, Helen of Troy. A group of six children were given the task of designing and making a large, 3D Trojan horse. The finished model is proudly displayed in the classroom.
