Infant & Junior School End of Term Celebrations

The children at Infant and Junior School have celebrating the end of the year.

Mrs Dixon led the end of term assembly for the Infant School children in what would be the final assembly held at Billinge House. They talked about the history of Infant School and Mrs Dixon showed the children old photographs, books and uniform and they were absolutely captivated. The children were also presented with their Olympic Games certificates for all of their hard work on their projects.

Year 6 Leavers Assembly

On Wednesday we said goodbye to our Year 6s in a modified and socially distanced Celebration. This took place outside where children were seated in their own square in a 2m² laid out grid. Although we were not able to conduct our annual Prize Giving in the same way; like everything that has happened during the pandemic, we sought to replace it with something that would be memorable and appropriate. Year 6 were given awards based on the characteristics of learning that have been our focus this academic Year. These included categories such as grit, determination, reliance, determination and adaptability. Miss Thompson and Mr Barnett were out ‘Masters of Ceremony’ and the awards were interwoven with musical statues, Mexican waves and pumping music! House and Staffroom Awards were also presented before children were delivered snacks to their seats and they were given a chance to chat to those in other PODs – socially distanced of course. Although it was a different ending to our year it was an enjoyable and fitting ending to the year. All Year 6 were presented with a leavers hoodie donated by the Westholme Association; our thanks goes once again to them for helping to commemorate the culmination of Primary School for our Year 6 children.
