The children had an amazing time learning all about the Sikh festival of Vaisakhi today. They took part in a special assembly led by a spiritual visitor, who showed them a range of Sikh artefacts such as the sword (kirpan) and kara, helping to deepen their understanding in a meaningful way. After this, the children enjoyed some downtime where they got creative, making Vaisakhi cards for their  friends and family. It was lovely to see their thoughtful designs and messages....

Year 5 were fortunate to welcome one of our parents into school, who spoke to the children about Hinduism, sharing valuable insights and helping to deepen their understanding.

What an incredible performance Years 3 and 4 put on in their spring production of  Dragon Days ! The children have worked so hard over the past weeks, and it truly showed on stage—their singing, acting, and confidence were fantastic, and the whole show wouldn’t have been out of place on a West End stage. They were absolutely amazing, and we are so proud of each and every one of them for creating such a memorable performance.

WOW - all of the children's Easter Bonnets were fabulous and we really appreciate your effort and time when creating them. What a wonderful memory for the children to have their very own parade to show off their beautiful creations. The children were beaming and wanted to wear their bonnets all day.

Our school was proud to take part in the London Mini Marathon, an inspiring event that brought together children and parents in a celebration of energy, determination, and community spirit. Our children embraced the challenge with enthusiasm and excitement, showing great commitment throughout.

Goldthorn Park hosted our first ever Career’s Fair for our Year 5 and 6 children. We had guests who represented different jobs and careers in school, to help our children understand how school skills connect to real life and to build curiosity and confidence about their future. We had members of the police and fire service, a make up artist, caterers, a salesperson, an NHS worker, a RSPCA officer, and a worker from the charity sector.   Our children asked really insightful qu

Thank you to all our families who joined us in Reception for our special Mother’s Day celebrations. The children loved crafting with you and sharing such a lovely time together. It was wonderful to see everyone getting creative and celebrating the special people in their lives.

We had a wonderful time in Nursery celebrating Mother’s Day with our families. It was fantastic to see such a great turnout and to share the time together. The children were so excited to welcome their parents and carers into the setting. We enjoyed a range of creative activities that allowed everyone to spend quality time together while making something special. There was plenty of painting and collaging, with children proudly showing off their colourful creations. Families

Year one walked to our local library to promote our love for reading. We met the librarian and she gave us a tour of the library and shared some stories with us. We joined in with the actions and made a mask based on the 'Super Wolf' story. We can't wait to use our new library memberships to borrow books with our families! Well done year one, we were really impressed with your manners - you represented Goldthorn Park beautifully.

Reception had an exciting visit from a PCSO, who brought along his police van! The children loved sitting inside the van and asking lots of brilliant questions about his job.

Our local Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) visited Year 2 to talk about stranger danger and recognising safer strangers. The children discussed how to stay safe, what to do if they get lost, and who they can trust for help. We are very grateful for the visit and the valuable safety advice shared.

What a wonderful day we had visiting the Gurdwara! The trip provided the children with a detailed and meaningful insight into Sikhism and helped them understand how a Gurdwara is run. They were incredibly respectful throughout and asked many thoughtful and well-considered questions, showing great curiosity and engagement. One of the highlights of the visit was the opportunity to sample some delicious Prashad in the langar hall. The children enjoyed experiencing this importan

Our local Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) visited Year 1 to talk to the children about stranger danger and the importance of recognising safer strangers. During the session, the children listened carefully and took part in discussions about different everyday scenarios. Together, they explored what to do if they ever feel worried or unsure, and who they can go to for help. The PCSO explained that not all strangers are unsafe and helped the children identify safer stra

Thank you to all parents and carers who attended our recent online safety workshop delivered by engagedU. We hope you found the session informative and helpful in supporting your children to stay safe online.
