This morning we have been practising our kinetic letter and animal poses. These poses help us to build physical strength, improve concentration, and develop the core and upper body stability needed for everyday tasks, particularly writing. We practised the Lizard Pose, which strengthens the back, shoulders, and neck; the Stone Lion Pose, which develops shoulder stability; the Meerkat Pose, which engages the core and lower back; the Gorilla Pose, which encourages good sitting posture; and the Penguin Pose, which promotes balance and body awareness. By developing these important physical skills, we are building the strong foundations needed to sit comfortably, maintain good posture, and write with greater confidence and control ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿง๐Ÿฆ

Well done Owls๐Ÿฆ‰๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒท๐Ÿ’๐Ÿฅ€๐Ÿชป๐ŸŒบ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒผ

๐ŸŒŸ This Week in Nursery ๐ŸŒŸ

We've had a fantastic week exploring emotions, listening skills, and the colour red!

๐Ÿ“– Our story, The Colour Monster, helped us talk about different feelings and share our own emotions.
๐Ÿ”ค In phonics, we learned the sound S and sang Miss Molly Had a Dolly, listening carefully for words beginning with s.
๐ŸŽถ In maths, we enjoyed singing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Once I Caught a Fish Alive to practise our counting skills.
๐Ÿ”ด We also went on a hunt around the nursery to find red objects, using our excellent looking skills!
๐Ÿ‘‹ We began our Talk Boost from the Beginning programme with Book 1: Hello, practising our good sitting, looking, and listening skills during carpet time just like Jake & Tizzy

Well done, Nursery! We are so proud of your enthusiasm and wonderful learning this week. โญ๐Ÿ’›

Choosing our End of Year Pupil of the Term is always one of the most difficult decisions we make. We are fortunate to have so many wonderful children who make us proud every day.

This award is given to those children who consistently represent our school brilliantly and demonstrate our Christian values of Love, Respect, Faith, Thankfulness and Fellowship in all that they do. They are positive role models who let their light shine through their actions, attitudes and kindness towards others.

A huge congratulations to Jayden, Anna, Harper and Olly on being named our End of Year Pupils of the Term. Thank you for being such fantastic ambassadors for Lower Heath and for showing our school values each and every day.

Keep letting your light shine always! โญ๏ธโœจ

Choosing our End of

What a joyful morning as we came together with the families of our Year 6 leavers for the infamous end of year production!

There was laughter, music and plenty of memorable moments as our wonderful children took to the stage for one final performance of the year.

A special thank you goes to Mr Holt-Williams, who brilliantly led the celebration and took the time to recognise each child with their own personal award, highlighting the unique ways they have excelled during their time at Lower Heath. It was a true reflection of what makes our school so special: always spotting the good in everyone and celebrating the strengths that make each child shine.
As our Year 6 pupils prepare to take their next steps into secondary school, we are sure they will do so with great confidence. They leave us as kind, capable and resilient young people, ready for the opportunities and challenges ahead.

Year 6, thank you for the memories, the smiles and the contribution you have made to our school family. We know you are prepared for your futures and we cannot wait to see all that you achieve.

Let your light shine in everything you do. โญ๏ธ๐Ÿ’›๐ŸŒŸ

๐ŸŒŸ Primary Futures at Lower Heath ๐ŸŒŸ
A huge thank you to the wonderful members of our Lower Heath community who gave up their time to inspire our children this week during our Primary Futures sessions.
We welcomed visitors from a wide range of careers, including an IT specialist, scientist researching DNA preservation, air cabin crew, massage therapist, dolphin trainer and many more. Their stories helped open our children's eyes to the incredible opportunities and careers that await them in the future.
These experiences are invaluable in broadening horizons, raising aspirations and showing our pupils that anything is possible.

Thank you to everyone who helped make Primary Futures such a success! ๐Ÿ’™

๐Ÿ”ฌ Science in Kingfishers ๐Ÿ”ฌ

Over the past few weeks, Kingfishers have been conducting a scientific investigation exploring the question: "How does food affect muscle fatigue?"
This week, we completed our enquiry by analysing our results and presenting our findings in a creative way. The children worked in groups to write scripts and used their Mini Me puppets to share their conclusions with the class.
We were incredibly impressed with the children's scientific thinking, teamwork and presentation skills. They communicated their findings clearly and confidently, demonstrating a brilliant understanding of the investigation process.
Well done, Kingfishers! ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿงช๐Ÿ‘
