Settling in to life at Cypress Lower It barely seems possible that half a term has already flown by since the Reception children started in their classes!

The children have been amazing in their first half term in the Early Years at Atwood. 

Last week, Year 2 at Beulah was abuzz with the sounds of baking and crafting.

During 2023’s Black History Month, we are connecting with our diverse histories and those of prominent Black British figures.

In Year Five, the children have been creating and performing ‘blackout’ Poetry using the book The Lost Words: A Spell Book by Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris’. 

Thank you to those who were able to attend our Coffee Morning last Thursday. 

The Atwood girls’ football team opened their season with a win this week. 

Last Friday, Connemara Class in Year 4 performed an assembly in celebration of the Harvest Festival.

Year one had a great experience at the library this week.

The gardening club at WHJUN has been out in force this week, picking up litter, weeding and planting daffodil bulbs on the edge of the field for us all to enjoy in the Spring. 

Little Ecclesbourne had such an exciting time last week, when a real owl visited. 

Today we were delighted to welcome so many parents and carers to our first reading cafe at Little Ecclesbourne this year.

As part of our continued commitment to reading and phonics, we were delighted to take delivery this week of even more books to support the delivery of our Little Wandle Phonics programme. 

I can’t believe how quickly this half term has gone. The Reception children in Willow class have settled so well and are fully into the swing of their new routines.

On Friday, we celebrated our Harvest Assembly with many of our parents.
