As we close our doors for the summer holidays, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on an extraordinary year at Woodford Primary School (WPS).

 

From academic achievements to unforgettable experiences, our pupils have truly made the most of every opportunity.

 

Here are just some of the highlights that defined our year!

We loved meeting author Sheena Garg who wrote, “Myra Plays Holi” which she came to read to us. It helped our children understand more about the Indian Festival of colours – Holi. We even got to experience a splash of colour.

Eid Celebrations

We’ve enjoyed learning about Eid-al-Fitr celebrated by Muslims when they end Ramadan. Children recalled; “they only eat at nighttime… they break their fast with a meal… wear special clothes to celebrate… stand on mats to pray.”

Food Bank Challenge

As part of our broader curriculum, at Woodford Primary School, we have held a Food Bank Challenge. These opportunities are significant in developing our pupils understanding of the wider world.

Bethan Woollvin read to us one of her inspiring books – Luna and the Sky Dragon. She shared with us how she’s got to where she is today. We finished off with a live drawing tutorial of both the sky dragon and main character Luna.
