We absolutely love our wraparound care provision (Foxy's Den) at Lower Heath! From 7:30am through to 5:15pm, it is a place full of energy, creativity and independence. Children have the freedom to choose from a wide range of activities, follow their interests and taking ownership of their time. It is wonderful to see them working together, sharing ideas and creating things they are really proud of.
Today has been a perfect example, with children making thoughtful Father’s Day cards, designing loom bands, exploring graffiti art and even enjoying a spot of hairdressing!
What makes it truly special is the sense of community. We are so lucky to have such supportive families and such dedicated, caring staff who make Foxy's Den such a positive experience for every child.
If you are looking for a school where your child can thrive from the very start to the end of the day, we would love to welcome you to Lower Heath. Contact our school office to find out more or arrange a visit to see everything we have to offer 👉🏼 lowerheath.co.uk

We are so proud of Jack, one of our pupils at Lower Heath, and his incredible fundraising effort.
Inspired by the special friendship he has built while going to work with his auntie and supporting a child with special educational needs, Jack has taken on an amazing challenge to raise money for Contact, a national charity that provides expert advice and brings families of disabled children together, helping them access vital support and thrive.
Jack has been walking miles, reading books, visiting parks, running a cake sale, and will be finishing his challenge by bag packing at Morrisons in Market Drayton on Friday 19th June. If you are nearby, please do pop in and support him.
If you are able to support Jack, you can donate here: www.justgiving.com/page/emmylou-hancocks-1
Every donation, big or small, will make a real difference. Well done Jack for truly letting your light shine!

Shropshire Sings Event 🎤🎶
We are incredibly proud of the broad and balanced curriculum at Lower Heath, where nurturing every child’s talents and passions is at the heart of what we do.
A real highlight each year is taking part in Shropshire Sings, organised by Shropshire Music Service. Our children joined pupils from across the county to perform a fantastic range of songs to a packed audience in a wonderful festival atmosphere.
They sang and danced their hearts out, showing great enthusiasm, confidence and joy throughout. We are so proud of how they represented our school. What a memorable experience for all involved.

Messy Monday! 🎉
What a fantastic day in nursery!
We kicked off with “The Wheels on the Bus” and our new phoneme h, then hopped into maths with Sleeping Bunnies, rolling dice and jumping to the next number to help them develop their counting skills 🐰
In the afternoon, things got very messy with baked beans! The children explored the beans using their hands, making tracks in the tomato sauce, squishing the beans, and investigating how they felt. They used some fantastic vocabulary such as “sticky,” “squishy,” and “gooey!”
What a fun-filled day of singing, hopping, and super messy exploring! 🎶👐

The Marches Trust second annual Open Doors, Open Hearts event was a truly special occasion.
Year 3 children from all Church of England Schools within the Marches Trust came together to worship, sing and learn about Pentecost, often described as the birthday of the Church. It was a meaningful experience, helping children to reflect, connect and deepen their understanding of this significant moment in the Christian calendar.
A huge thank you to Rev Chris and his wonderful team of volunteers from St Alkmund’s Church, Whitchurch, and surrounding churches. The activities they led brought the story of Pentecost to life in an engaging and memorable way.
Events like this play an important role in nurturing our children’s spiritual development and sense of community. It was a joy to share this time together.

Wem Rotary Young Achievers 🏆
What a joyful evening at the Wem Rotary Young Achievers Award, alongside eight local primary schools, celebrating pupils who truly make a difference!
It was inspiring to hear the incredible things children are doing in our community. A huge thank you to Roger Ashton and the Rotary team for restarting this event. Each child received a certificate and book token, a lovely way to mark their achievements.
We are so proud of our nominee, Hattie Breese, who is richly deserving of this recognition. Inspired by her family connection with Down’s syndrome, she raised awareness through an assembly and set up our Dance of Down’s Syndrome school club, which is going from strength to strength. Hattie truly lets her light shine and lives out our Christian values every day. She is kind, inclusive and always thinking of others.
Well done, Hattie, a fantastic and well deserved achievement.

We were incredibly proud to see our pupils’ artwork officially unveiled at Prees railway station as part of Community Rail Week. The project, Lines Through the Land, brought together our children, local artist Cathy Williams, 3 Counties Connected Community Rail Partnership and members of the wider community to create a truly special installation that celebrates the identity, history and natural beauty of Prees.
Through a series of creative workshops, each class explored different aspects of our local area, from Bronze Age roots to farmland and wildlife, producing a vibrant collection of artwork that now has a permanent home at the station.
This has been a meaningful opportunity for our children to contribute to something beyond the classroom, helping them to understand the importance of community, belonging and taking pride in where they live.
A huge thank you to Cathy Williams and Josie Rayworth along with station volunteers and community members, for making this possible.
If you are passing through Prees station, do take a moment to have a look and celebrate the creativity of our pupils and the story of our village.
