When children are healthy, happy and safe, curiosity is ignited and learning is optimised. In this section, you will find out what children in school and nursery have been learning this week.
Year 1 have been learning all about school days in the Victorian Era. This week we have been learning about playground toys and games at school back in the 1800s. We learnt about how they played with games like: hopscotch, the diablo, skipping ropes, marbles and hoops. We also made our very own cup and ball toy!
Children in Year 2 a wonderful time at Fairbourne beach making special memories with friends.
Everyone enjoyed a picnic before heading to the beach for some fun. There were some really inventive creations made in the sand. We saw fantastic team work and creativity.
Fairbourne is a place we visit during the year 6 residential to Arthog Outdoor Education & Activity Centre and is a really special beach to enjoy every time we visit.
We have been learning about weather symbols in science and how the weather changes across the seasons. Year 1 have been busy using the green screen to record their own weather forecasts, and have thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Take a look at the Facebook page to see the videos!
The children enjoyed cricket coaching sessions this week. We saw some great cricket skills developing throughout the sessions. Seeing everyone smiling and having fun together has been wonderful. Thank you to Cricket Shropshire, we had a lovely day.
We are so fortunate to have local clubs who provide All stars and Dynamos groups for young players. For more information contact Willey Wanderers Cricket Club
Year 3 have been learning about VE Day and why it is celebrated. They made scones and learnt how to draw a Union Jack.
Reception class had a wonderful day at the Exotic Zoo meeting lots of different animals.

On Thursday 8th May 2025, we joined the local community in a VE Day 80th Anniversary Commemoration Service in the Broseley Memorial Gardens. Thank you to all the children and parents who joined us.
Year 1 have been working hard learning about Multiplication and Division in maths. We were learning how to divide a quantity by using the grouping strategy. We worked together with our partners to divide smarties by grouping them. It was great fun!
In Year 1 we are learning about the pop artist James Rizzi! We are learning about how he created funky and imaginative cartoon-style street views. We have created our own double-page artist study using a variety of mixed media to get a feel for his colourful style.
In year 3 this term we are focusing on beautiful botanicals. We looked at artist Georgia O'Keeffe, which allowed the children to think about drawing on a bigger scale and zooming in.
They created some amazing watercolour flowers!
Y4 have been investigating light and shadows. We used different materials to make shadow puppets and performed in our own shadow puppet theatre!
