Happy Black Country Day! Today, we're celebrating the rich history, strong community spirit and proud heritage of the Black Country. From industry and innovation to our unique dialect and traditions, there is so much to be proud of! As part of our celebrations, families will be able to enjoy our Black Country-inspired Art Gallery, which will be on display at our Summer Festival tomorrow. The artwork showcases children's creativity and their learning about what makes the Black Country such a special place.

A Reminder About Punctuality We are asking for the support of all families in ensuring children arrive at school on time each day. Our gates open at 8:40am and classroom doors remain open until 8:55am, giving a 15-minute window for children to arrive, settle in, and be ready to start learning. Arriving late means children miss important instructions, morning activities, and valuable time with their classmates. It also causes disruption to learning across the school and requires staff to step away from lessons to manage late arrivals. As we head into the final four days of term, we have lots of exciting events planned, including: Year 6 Production Summer Festival Fun Day End-of-term class activities We want every child to enjoy these special experiences and make the most of their final days in school this year. Please help us by ensuring children arrive between 8:40am and 8:55am each morning and are ready to begin the day with their classmates. Thank you for your continued support. By working together, we can help every child make the most of these important final days of the school year.

Our Year 6 children had an absolutely fantastic time at West Midlands Safari Park as part of their leavers' celebrations! From spotting incredible animals up close to enjoying the excitement of the theme park rides, the day was packed with smiles, laughter and unforgettable memories. It was a wonderful opportunity for children to celebrate the end of their primary school journey together and create lasting memories with their friends. A huge thank you to our families for their support and to our staff for helping make the day such a success. We are so proud of our Year 6 children and were delighted to share this special experience with them.

What a Fantastic Performance! A huge well done to our talented Year 5 children who showcased their incredible Hip-Hop Dance performances this week! After spending the summer term developing their skills through choreography, improvisation and collaborative dance work inspired by Boy Blue Entertainment, the children confidently shared their learning with both the school and their families. It was wonderful to see their creativity, teamwork and enthusiasm shine through in every performance. The energy, commitment and confidence displayed by the children made this a truly memorable celebration of their hard work and dedication.
