Here are this week’s SSPP Superstars!
Last night, ten Year 5 and 6 children represented the school as a team at a Sportshall Athletics Event at Wolverhampton Grammar School!
They had to participate in events such as: relay, chest throw, vertical long jump, standing long jump, speed bounce and hurdles. The better they performed, the more points they won for their team.
We were very proud to come second in the event, which means we have progressed to the city finals night in December! We narrowly missed out on first place by 2 points!
Last week, Reception were busy learning five Nursery Rhymes. They made honey sandwiches like a queen, built walls for Humpty Dumpty, listened out for thunder, jumped aboard a pirate ship and ended the week making 2 little Dickie birds with our families.
Through our partnership with Wolves Foundation, we were very grateful to be invited to WV Active to participate in a PDC Bullseye Maths experience. The venue is currently set up for the 2025 Grand Slam of darts, and all the world’s best darts players are currently in our city participating in the event.
Our Year 6 cohort visited to experience how maths is important in darts and how playing darts can support their arithmetic skills. We were very fortunate to be joined by the World no.10 player Josh Rock, who supported and spoke to all of our children.
Last night, children attended a dodgeball event at Our Lady and St Chads Academy and competed against 9 other schools! They performed really well and got better with every match! Well done for displaying honesty and a positive attitude!
Today, we gather in remembering those that have died in the line of duty for us. We will hold a 2-minute silence in remembrance at 11:00 am.
We are delighted to have welcomed Onjali Q. Raúf to Wolverhampton to officially open our incredible amphitheatre. This specially designed space for storytelling, oracy, drama and role play has been an incredible project from start to finish! Simply perfect to have Onjali Q. Raúf meet our Summer Reading Challenge participants in this space to share a story at our official opening!
Yesterday, our Reception parents had an introduction in how to support their child’s reading journey as SSPP and then they worked with their child using our new RWI book bag books and reading for pleasure books.
