The WOW Day was fantastic! 🌍 The children enjoyed a wonderful day focused on Geography, exploring both human and physical features. We started with a feature-finding walk to spot these from our school grounds, and in the afternoon the children got creative by designing and building some junk model cities. A fun, engaging day full of learning and imagination!

Scafell Pike have been enjoying their WOW day dressing up as characters from Harry Potter.

In the other class, Cader Idris, we have even more witches and wizards. 🧙🧙‍♀️

Year 2 have had a wonderful first week back, diving into our Magnificent Monarchs topic and enjoying a special writing workshop with parents to kick-start our learning together!

Year 4 invited parents/carers in today for a successful reading cafe where both the children and adults enjoyed reading the first chapter of George's Marvellous Medicine and made predictions about what would happen next.

The students in Year 5 have just received their magical invitations to join Hogwarts in January. We're not sure who sent these, but we'll hopefully have more information to share next year!

It was lovely to welcome Year 2 parents into school to share a festive afternoon with their children. Together they created beautiful snowflakes, enjoyed Christmas crafts, listened to festive music and snuggled up reading Christmas stories. Parents also enjoyed taking a moment to relax with tea, coffee and mince pies while sharing this special time. Thank you to all the families who joined us – it was a warm, joyful celebration and a wonderful way to make Christmas memories together.

The Year 2 and 3 team have been busy getting creative this festive season! With the help of a cheeky elf, staff have written a delightful Christmas story filled with imagination and holiday cheer. We’re excited to share this story with you—please follow the link to enjoy the story.

Here at Bloxwich Academy Primary, our term has ended with a fantastic reading celebration: our first VIP Reading Cafe! Children who completed their Starbooks or Bookflix loyalty cards were invited to a truly magical session where they enjoyed a hot chocolate and marshmallows and had the chance to select a book of their choice. They also enjoyed sharing their reading with Mrs Shepherd and Miss Stott. A huge well done to our first attendees! We cannot wait to see who will be next to complete their loyalty cards and receive a special invite to the next VIP Reading Cafe! 

On Monday, all the children from Nursery to Year 6 had a fantastic time visiting some very special animals – pygmy goats and alpacas! The children were full of excitement as they met the friendly animals, watched them up close, and learned more about how they live. There were lots of smiles and laughter, and it was a wonderful experience that everyone will remember.

In Nursery, we have been on a lovely journey aboard The Polar Express. The children truly got into the spirit of Christmas, using their imaginations and sharing lots of excitement along the way. To make our adventure extra special, we enjoyed a delicious cup of hot chocolate topped with yummy marshmallows. It was a magical experience filled with smiles, festive cheer, and wonderful memories. 🎄☕✨
