In Guided Reading and every reading opportunity we could find, Kingfishers have been honing their POWER when reading aloud π
The children have shown brilliant confidence, volunteering to read to one another and demonstrating fantastic listening, attention, and respect. Their expression and self belief have grown so much, and we are incredibly proud.

What a fantastic afternoon for our annual Colour Run π
It was wonderful to see children and families coming together in the sunshine to celebrate the Hindu Holi Festival while raising money for our childrenβs chosen charities, Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) and Dogs Trust.
Families joined the fun by showering the children with colourful powder, celebrating themes of good triumphing over evil, the arrival of spring, and new beginnings. The smiles, energy, and sense of community said it all.

π Itβs nearly time for Lower Heathβs Colour Run! π
Get ready for rainbow clouds, big smiles and the brightest day of our year. Our children are gearing up for their annual Colour Run, and this year they have chosen two amazing charities to support:
They selected these charities after sharing stories in school about how much confidence riding has given them and how much they adore rescue dogs who have found loving homes.
We would love your support. Every donation, big or small, helps our children make a real difference while also raising funds for a special school project they will choose themselves.
In Art, our children have been developing their observational drawing and painting skills. They focused on drawing exactly what they could see rather than what they imagined which is trickier than it sounds!
After this, they explored different watercolour techniques including blending, washing and experimenting with effects to see which methods worked best. It was a challenging activity, but they approached it with enthusiasm and did brilliantly. We are so proud of their growing confidence and creativity π

π¦ Owl Class Shine for National Telling Week! π¦
As part of National Telling Week, Owl Class took part in an exciting national online workshop led by writer and rapper Alim Kamara.
The children learned the fundamentals of communicating through rap exploring rhythm, rhyme and the power of words. They had great fun creating their own raps and showcasing their brilliant creativity.
Well done, Owls you were fantastic! π€β¨

As we finished for half term, I had to share this wonderful moment.
I had wrapped up my afternoon groups when I looked around the room and noticed something truly special happening. Every child was completely absorbed in purposeful play during COOL time building, creating, collaborating and filling every corner of our classroom with imagination.
It was one of those moments where everything just clicked. The room felt alive, joyful and almost magical.
These are the moments that remind me exactly why I love what I do so thank you. πβ¨

π We are absolutely delighted to share some fantastic news. π
Lower Heath has received an award for being in the top 10% of schools nationally for attendance and we couldnβt be more proud of our wonderful school community.
At Lower Heath, attendance matters because every day in school is a new opportunity to learn, grow and shine. When children are here consistently, they build strong relationships, make steady academic progress and feel truly part of our caring school community. Being in school each day helps them feel secure, confident and ready to achieve their very best.
One of the reasons our attendance is so strong is simple our children love coming to school. They feel happy, safe and valued, and we work closely with families to support attendance whenever challenges arise. By working together, we make sure every child can access the full joy of school life.
A huge thank you to our dedicated staff team for making Lower Heath such a warm, nurturing and exciting place to be. And an equally big thank you to our amazing families for your continued support and partnership.
π You all make Lower Heath truly special. Well done everyone. π
