Children had an amazing time on the evening of Wednesday 27th February taking part in the Schools Gotta Dance showcasing event at the Lichfield Garrick theatre. Children from across the federation took part and families came and had a wonderful evening watching the talent on stage. We were incredibly proud of our children who had a fantastic time, smiled throughout, danced their hearts out and just relished such an amazing opportunity.
Children had an excellent time at the PTA Valentine’s Disco, thank you to all the families and PTA for their support in making this such fun!
Children had an excellent day celebrating Chinese New Year! They dressed up and completed lots of activities, and we also like to express a huge thank you to Miss Ridgeway and North West Leicestershire District Council, Stronger Safer Communities Team for sending in a fortune cookie for each child with cybercrime/cybersafe message inside.
On Tuesday 15th February the whole school got together for their half termly reflection on one of our Fruits of the Spirit values. This half term we have been thinking about 'joy'.
The diocese produced some short ‘progress report’ films about the four missional projects that Bishop Michael launched last May ready for the ‘Next Steps’ event at Lichfield Cathedral on 3 March. One f these projects was the Bishop’s retreat which our federation children attended called putting WOW-Factor into Worship. Our Worship team were interviewed and filmed this morning and they had a super time!
Children had excellent fun this morning considering the real reason for the pancake races – Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday - the beginning of lent. Children and siblings – even staff - loved their races and families enjoyed cheering them on.

Children from across the federation had a super evening at the athletics tournament at John Taylor High school with a whole range of athletics activities including running, tag team and skipping! A great evening was had by all.
Children and families in class 3 had an amazing, fundraising afternoon in order to realise their dream of a class pet. They organised, with the hard work and help of Miss McAdam, a maths quiz afternoon linked to their drive for times tables excellence. Children also made and sold cakes! It was great to see so much support from families, energy and enthusiasm and practice! Well done.
Children had a beautiful, reverent service for Holy Communion today. Thank you to Fr Graham Bott for leading today!
