Mother's day!

This week at Westwood we have celebrated our Mother's and Others! We invited special people in our lives to come to school. Then, we enjoyed crafts, tea and cake together! We appreciate you all!

Pancake day!

Westwood have taken part in their own pancake day today! We absolutely loved getting the ingredients, cooking and customising our pancakes! Chocolate sauce was the definite favourite! 

Christmas Crafts!

Reception have enjoyed welcoming parents into school today to make Christmas crafts! We made melting snowmen biscuits, gingerbread men decorations and cards! Thank you to everyone that came! 

Children in Need 2022

We had lots of fun raising money for Children in Need! Year 1 and 2 wrote invitations and invited Reception for a Pudsey party in the afternoon. Oak class wrote their own responses and we enjoyed a boogie!

Remembrance Day 2022

Red Nose Day - Friday 18th March 2022

The children have all come to school in non-uniform today, paying a donation of £1.00 to go towards Red Nose Day. The Reception and KS1 children took part in a competition to create their very own nose. We had some fabulous entries! Well done to all of our children and families for making today a success! 

World Book Day - Thursday 3rd March 2022

The children have thoroughly enjoyed our World Book Day celebrations. This year we had a bedtime story theme and our children brought in their favourite stories to share with their friends.

Children’s Mental Health Week

We have been taking part in Mental Health Week by doing lots of mindfulness activities and talking through circle times. The Nursery children have enjoyed taking part in yoga sessions throughout the week and the Reception and KS1 children did lots of work around healthy minds and bodies. 

Animal handling

Kristan and her pets, from Lion learners, came to our school to talk us about reptiles, amphibians and mammals and their habitats.  

Anti-Bullying Week

On Monday 15th November we celebrated Anti-Bullying week by wearing odd socks to

school!  All the children and staff joined in - we had some real mix and match combinations!

Mrs Armstrong did an Anti-Bullying Assembly where we talked about kind words and what bullying means. We also did a range of activities throughout the week concentrating on supporting our friends, looking after one another and working as a team. Our week finished on the Friday where we celebrated Children In Need Day and came to school in non-uniform.

Wow! We have been so very impressed by the children’s efforts at dressing up. We have seen pirates, Little Red Riding Hoods, Thing 1 and Thing 2 and so many many more. A huge thank you to all the children who have joined in at home too. We have had a great day full of authors, stories and creativity. Well done everyone!
