We are incredibly proud of all the children who took part in this year’s Key Stage 1 Christmas production, Barmy Bethlehem. Every pupil sang and performed beautifully, filling the hall with festive cheer and getting us all into the Christmas spirit.

Early Years had a fabulous afternoon when a farm came to visit—along with a very special Christmas guest! The children enjoyed getting up close and personal with a variety of animals and loved learning all about them. It was an exciting, hands-on experience that brought plenty of smiles.

Goldthorn Park children embraced the Daily Mile today! With smiles on their faces and energy in their stride, they proved that a short burst of activity can make a big difference. The playground was buzzing with determination as children jogged, ran, and walked together, showing that fitness can be fun and achievable for everyone.

What a fantastic opportunity our children had today, watching a wonderful Christmas puppet performance from Penn Puppets! The show was full of festive fun, music and laughter, and our pupils were absolutely captivated from start to finish. “It was the best!” said Gurshaan from Reception — and we couldn’t agree more!

We had a wonderful time learning all about our story Cinderella. The children designed their own ballroom outfit, drew themselves in there special party wear, learnt all about castles and made their own castles using different building materials. We even learnt how to ballroom dance and enjoyed a royal banquet.

Last week, our Year 6 pupils enjoyed an unforgettable trip to Blists Hill Victorian Town as part of their history learning. The children spent the day exploring what life was really like in the Victorian era and were amazed at how different it was from today! During the visit, the children met costumed Victorian characters, visited the old-fashioned bank, bakery, post office, sweet shop and chemist, and discovered how people lived and worked over 100 years ago.

We have had a brilliant week of learning all about bonfire night 🔥  We had the best bonfire day, making our own fire, learning about fire safety, toasting apples, making editable sparklers and enjoying some hot chocolate with campfire songs ☕️🍏🔥🔥

We were very lucky to welcome The Stringcredibles  — a quartet of world-class orchestral musicians — and Nate Holder, a professional saxophonist and award-winning author! Their incredible show, The Butterfly Lands , took us on a magical journey of migration, told through the metaphor of a butterfly. The story followed the butterfly’s travels across different islands, exploring music, language, faith, clothing, and food — and celebrating how diversity brings richness and beaut

What an amazing adventure! Today, our children were transported back in time to the fascinating world of the Stone Age. We built roaring fires and baked our own bread (which was absolutely delicious!). The children practised hunting skills with bows, arrows, and spears, and worked together to create shelters using only natural resources—just like real Stone Age people. For the ultimate challenge, we teamed up to move heavy stones using logs and rope, just as they did to build
