On Friday Nursery and Reception enjoyed their last school trip of the school year. The children enjoyed using their imagination for people we may know, such as builders and shop keepers. The children then enjoyed decorating clay models, making magic snow and creating bath bombs in a science experiment. Then the children enjoyed exploring around the science area before making some of their own slime. The children had the best day ever!

Thurstaston and Parkgate

25-06-2026

Class 6 enjoyed a trip out this week as part of our geography topic. We’ve been learning the history behind the once thriving port of Parkgate and its demise in the 1900s. In class before our trip, we mapped out our route for Thurstaston using our co-ordinates and compass skills and visited the cave where ill-gotten contraband (looted from passing ships in the River Dee) was stored before being sold at The Red Lion public house in Parkgate back in the 18th century. We seen how the River Dee has silted up over time and how Parkgate has become a maritime conservation area. The Red Lion pub is still there today and Parkgate is a lovely place to visit.

Water Safety

19-06-2026

Class 6 today have had an (in class) assembly to look at the dangers of swimming in open waters. We have looked at the warning signs and how to spot dangers or make safe decisions even if we think the water looks safe and calm. We also discussed peer pressure and how to deal with that if one of our friends insists we swim even though we’re not sure. If it doesn’t feel right then don’t do it.

Water Safety and The Water Safety Code

19-06-2026

Today we looked through a PowerPoint and watched a small video on Water Safety. This was very interesting to see how many ways we knew how to stay safe in open water. We learnt about the Water Safety Code too which is; Stop and Think, Stay together, in an emergency Float and Call 999 or 112. The children came up with their water safety code and used actions to help them remember.

Now opened as a museum, we got to explore the cells, the maternity area, the governors rooms, punishment yard and learnt about the executions that took place there. As you can see by our photos, some of us weren’t happy to be locked up!

Y6 Street Art Tour

09-06-2026

Today Class 6 took a tour around South Liverpool to take a look at the different styles of street art and the artists behind them. We discussed what we thought their inspiration was and the messages the artwork was giving us. Mr Curry talked about the history and origins of the Secretary Bird and we talked about the similarities between that and our very own Liver Birds.
Finally we were so lucky (and excited) to get to meet two of the well-known street artists we have been studying in our Art lessons…John Culshaw and Liam Bononi! We got to ask them some questions and they told us why they started street art and how long they’d been doing it for, along with their inspiration and how they paint their images on a huge scale. It was such an amazing experience to get to meet and question the artists we have been researching. How lucky are we!

Y6 Residential- Canoeing

08-06-2026

We had lots of fun canoeing along the Menai Strait. The weather was a bit choppy but with great teamwork, we navigated brilliantly. Once we had finished, we used our great teamwork skills to bring the canoes out of the water before some of us braved the water again for a quick dip off the jetty.
