Temple MeadowPrimary School

What an amazing day our Reception children had on Wednesday at Sycamore Adventure Centre! They had the best time exploring the water and sand areas, riding the bikes, and enjoying the soft play, slides, tunnels, and swings. A particular favourite was the incredible sensory room, along with so many other exciting activities throughout the day. Our children represented Temple Meadow brilliantly - their behaviour was fantastic, and they were an absolute credit to our school. We are so proud of them! A huge thank you to our wonderful family volunteers for supporting the trip and helping to make it such a great success.

After School Club Fun! Our Year 1 and Year 2 children have been busy getting creative in After School Club this week! Using bright colours, paper, and lots of imagination, the children have crafted their very own handmade flower pots. From bold, rainbow-coloured petals to carefully designed stems and leaves, each creation is completely unique and they look absolutely fantastic! It's been lovely to see the children taking such pride in their work and supporting each other as they built their colourful bouquets. We hope you enjoy seeing some of their finished designs!

TIM Little People Workshops Are Underway! Last week, we were really pleased to welcome the team from Black Country Helping Hands as we began our first TIM (This Is Me) Little People Workshop. Over the next four weeks, a group of our children will be taking part in these wonderful sessions delivered by Martina, Sam and Charlotte. The children thoroughly enjoyed engaging with activities all about emotions with lots of smiles, meaningful discussions and opportunities to express themselves. We look forward to welcoming the team again this Thursday!

Celebrating Clarke's Amazing Netball Success! We're incredibly proud to share some wonderful news with our Temple Meadow families. Clarke was recently selected to represent Birmingham City Netball Club at Condover Hall an exciting residential packed with competition and adventure! The team had a fantastic first day, finishing 2nd in their group out of 7 teams. They then qualified for the Cup competition, and were just one goal away from reaching the semifinals out of 28 teams! What an incredible achievement! When they weren't on the court, Clarke and the team enjoyed a range of activities including rock climbing, abseiling, canoeing and more - a brilliant experience all round. A huge well done to Clarke, we're all so proud of you!
