Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 pupils recently took part in our exciting Good to be Green Day, a special reward event to recognise and celebrate their excellent behaviour throughout the summer term.

Children were able to choose three activities to participate in, all led by members of staff. There was something for everyone, with a fantastic range of activities on offer including football, pickleball, cross stitch, cooking, arts and crafts, construction challenges, game creation, and much more.

The day was filled with fun, creativity, teamwork and new experiences, giving pupils the opportunity to enjoy activities they love while celebrating their positive choices and achievements. Well done to all our children for making this such a successful and enjoyable day! 💚👏

This term, pupils at Bloxwich Academy Primary have embarked on their exciting OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) journey, transforming lunchtimes into even more engaging, creative and active experiences.

With a wide variety of activities now available, children have been enjoying tyre play, ball games, dancing, playground art and craft, imaginative play, and construction play. These opportunities have encouraged creativity, teamwork, problem-solving and active play, helping children make the most of their lunchtime experiences.

A huge thank you to everyone who has kindly donated resources to support our OPAL project so far. Your generosity has helped us create richer and more exciting play experiences for our children, and we are extremely grateful for your support.

We are delighted with the success of OPAL so far and look forward to introducing even more exciting activities in the autumn term.

Yesterday, our SSI team had the pleasure of delivering a Team Building Day for a small group of students from Bloxwich Primary School.

Despite the exceptionally high temperatures leading to the school closing earlier than planned, the students showed fantastic enthusiasm, resilience and teamwork throughout the activities. They embraced every challenge, developed new skills and demonstrated excellent attitudes from start to finish.

While we couldn't complete everything we had planned, the day was a great success, and we look forward to welcoming the group back in the future to complete the course.

A huge well done to all of the students for their effort and determination – we can't wait to see you again soon!

Year 1 have had a great day so far reliving the Victorian School era. The children have experienced what it's like to go to school in the Victorian era and used blackboards to do work today. Chanting their times tables. Playing old school games. 

The children look great!

A message from Bloxwich Secondary:

'WE LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING YOU

We have very high expectations for all our pupils and expect their conduct and behaviour, both within the academy and in the local community, to be exemplary. We encourage everyone ‘to be the best they can be’ each and every day with pupils taking pride in their standards of uniform and equipment. We are aspirational for all our pupils and this is noted in our excellent progress results in Year 11.

I am delighted that you have chosen Bloxwich Academy for your child’s next step into education and I look forward to welcoming them on their journey with us over the forthcoming years.'

We are looking forward to a fun and engaging day at school this Friday for our Careers Day.

Children are invited (optional) to come to school in comfy clothes or dressed as their dream career or profession they might like to have when they grow up. 

This is a great opportunity for the children to think about their interests and future aspirations.

During the day, we will also have a special visit from a furniture maker who creates bespoke furniture for celebrities. He will be talking to the  Yr4 children about his work and sharing pictures of some of the pieces he has made.

Our G2BG activities will also take place during the school day, where children will take part in activities, they have chosen themselves.

After school, we will continue with our usual club offer, including:

• Eco Club
• Gymnastics Club
• Athletics Club

In addition, our Fit for Life Club will take place during lunchtime.

We look forward to a fun and inspiring day for the children.

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. 🧙🧙‍♀️
