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!

How children can take part: Children can earn a monthly badge by travelling to school at least once a week by: Walking Cycling Walking from a bus stop Parking and striding (parking at least 5 minutes away and walking in) Why we're doing it: To promote healthy bodies and minds To help reduce the buildup of cars outside school To contribute to protecting our environment Join the fun and walk to school with WOW!

Maths Magic in Early Years! Maths is looking brilliant across the whole school and we're especially proud of the fantastic learning happening in our Early Years classrooms. In Reception, we've been using the Mastering Number programme - and it is working so well! The children are developing a really strong sense of number through clear routines, hands-on activities and lots of mathematical talk. Their confidence and ability to explain their thinking is growing every single day. Our Nursery children are also thriving, exploring shapes, number and early reasoning through rich, purposeful play. Their curiosity and enthusiasm make their learning environment such a joyful place to be. Reception families - don't forget! You can come and see all this wonderful maths learning for yourselves at our Maths Stay and Play on Thursday 19th March. We'd love to welcome you in and share the fun, hands on activities your children enjoy every day.

World Book Day 2026 at Temple Meadow! What a wonderful day we've had celebrating World Book Day across the whole school! The children looked fantastic in their costumes and pyjamas and it was brilliant to see so much excitement around books and reading. A huge thank you to Mr Curzon for leading the day and organising such engaging, fun reading activities for all our children. From the whole school assembly to the bookthemed sessions in class, it has been a truly joyful celebration of stories. As an extra treat, each child will be coming home today with a preloved book to keep and enjoy – a lovely way to continue inspiring a love of reading at home. Thank you to our families for your support and for helping make today so special.
