It’s been another busy term at West End Primary, especially as the school marked it’s 110th birthday on March 16th. To celebrate, the children were treated to a surprise birthday party for the school in an assembly and then each class played party games for part of the day. They rounded off the day with some party cupcakes. So, let’s take a look at what else the pupils and staff got up to in the run up to the Easter break…
Back in January the school was visited by Adrian Bowden’s Travelling Science Show. The Infants and the Juniors had separate shows covering a vast array of different scientific concepts. It was a proper WOW assembly with fantastic experiments to show science in action.
On the 7th March the whole school came dressed as their favourite book character, completing a range of activities throughout the day based around their favourite books. They also enjoyed a special World Book Day themed lunch provided by our fantastic catering team.
West End Primary School marked Children’s Mental Health Week with an “Express Yourself” day. The children were able to wear clothes of their choice. We had lots of Disney Princesses, Superheroes, footballers and even a T-Rex! The children brought in a donation to Place to Be mental health charity. One child in Year 2 even raided his own piggy bank to add to his donation.
Finishing the term on a high – they held an Easter Egg Competition where each class had to complete an Easter themed activity judged blind by the teachers. The winners all received an Easter Egg in the end of term assembly.
