Headteacher’s Message

Congratulations to all of our Key Stage 2 children who have been voted into roles of responsibility this term.  We have our new school council, safeguarding squad and House captains who are acting as role models and sharing pupil voice activities to contribute ideas and important messages to help to prepare our children for life in modern Britain.  Jasmine and Riley from the school council will also have opportunity to be a part of the Reach2 pupil parliament, and share ideas across our cluster one schools. Mr Yardley, Mrs Williams and I look forward to working with these groups over the next year.

Well done to everyone who has received a Headteacher Award this week, I am very proud of you all:

Isabella-Ivy D, Harper W, Jasmine H, Lilly T, Oliver W, Elizabeth R, Neve S, Harlee S, Katie O, Amelia B, Dexter P, Oliver L, Theo C and Jenson W.

The social media parent survey is open for another week.  Thank you to everyone who has already completed this for us.

Wishing you all a lovely weekend.

Mrs E Smith

Forest School (13.09.24)

Forest School

Apley Wood Primary Academy are really excited to be able to continue to offer forest school to the whole of our school.

The weather at the moment is really unpredictable and can be lovely and warm one moment and raining and cold the next.

If your child receives a letter saying they are having a forest school session, please check which date it is for and send them in with a coat. They don’t need to be in any other special clothing, a change of shoes is fine to bring too but other than that please send them in full school uniform.

If you are unsure of what they may need, please see the Forest School page on our website where Mr Yardley and Mrs Jones have put a list of things that could make learning outdoors more comfortable.

All students are encouraged to join in with Forest School sessions.

In a world where we are exposed to so much technology…

We want everyone to connect with nature.
