At our recent in-service day we used Lego serious play methodology to develop conversation around the features of highly effective practice and practitioner! The conversation and insight was brilliant 🧱! This helped us with our self- evaluation activity.

Our joint choir and our strings orchestra were just the icing on the cake! I couldn’t be more proud of them! 🤩🥰 A fabulous celebration of N outstanding facility!

It truly was a wonderful celebration and our children were fantastic! Such beautiful singing ☀️ 😍 one VERY proud Head Teacher!

Plenty of water and lots of sunshine! We are basically just plants with complicated emotions! ☀️ 🏝️ 😎 ✈️

Our mini master chefs have been tasting and chopping. We made yummy bruschetta and pizza

We had fun in the forest today, we used the hammock, the wobbly rope and tools. We loved climbing trees. 🌳#forestschool

PROUD HT moment! 🤩 Yesterday, our incredible Pupil Leadership Team (PLT) wowed the Windfarm Trust board with their interim report! We showcased how we’ve used the grant so far, and let’s just say… socks were officially knocked off! 🧦 The PLT were simply outstanding! #StudentLeadership #ProudNPSHT

@lesswastelaura.bsky.social it was lovely to have you at our sustainability assembly recently. The children were raving about your fun, interesting and informative talk and they left buzzing with ideas. Our wellbeing Warriors loved their private Q&A session too! #learningforsustainability

P7a - thoughtful, engaged, and as always - fantastic, as they listened, discussed and expanded their learning about bias, stereotypes, gatekeeping and racism. Thank you to Show Racism the Red Card for coming in to talk to us.

P7a unboxing Lego Spike Prime today - we were able to complete our first projects - programming a lighting system and a colour sensor with sound alerts. Lots of trial and error in our problem solving approaches but great teamwork saw us through!

P3b have been learning all about the Lunar New Year and the Year of the Snake. 🐍 They designed their own snakes, enjoyed listening to Chinese music and were excited to find out what animal in the zodiac they are. 🐓 #HappyChineseNewYear

Saw this and it reminded me that the minority of negativity that is directed our way should never give way to the truck loads of positivity that we, our teams and the people around us bring everyday!

Finally had a chance in amongst all the being a dad stuff to get out and get my first 5k of 2025 done! A little bit anxious this morning wasn’t sure how I would cope! Well it turns out taking 3 minutes of my pre Christmas run time! 🙌🏃🏻 #exerciseisgreatformentalhealth

A lovely visit from some of my P7s this afternoon with this lovely card that they have made for me! #mademyday 😍

Hello and welcome to my new social media account. The move from twitter (X) is a welcome one.

This week I am out of school, visiting another school in ERC as part of a collaborative improvement visit. It’s really interesting being able to get to know other schools and share / steal and suggest best practice concepts.
