We changed the classroom layout in Year 4 this morning to host a class debate! The issue at hand: should Small (character from the story) leave the house to face the Big, Black Dog? The children spoke confidently and listened respectfully to each other's ideas!

Our Reception children had a fantastic day on the farm! They loved feeding the pigs, counting the sheep and retelling the story of The Little Red Hen. They even had the chance to mill their own flour, just like in the story! What a wonderful day full of fun, learning and hands-on adventures. Huge thank you to all our parent and family helpers who volunteered to help out!

Great to welcome Dave from I Want to Ride My Bike back to Willow Tree to teach our youngest children to balance, scoot and pedal around our playground! If your child is new to Willow Tree this year (in any year group) and hasn't learned to ride a bike, please let us know and we'll make sure they get the chance!

This week children in reception have been sharing the story In Every House on Every Street by Jess Hitchman.
They have talked about the rooms in their homes and the people who live there.
Today they created their very own street of houses in the classroom!

Our school council planted our succession Willow Tree from Hillier Trees with the help of Bartlett Tree Experts - York, UK. It's been a fabulous experience for the children and we're so pleased that the mulch from our old tree is providing nutrients to the soil for our new Willow

What an afternoon! We brought the whole school out to see the professionals from Bartlett Tree Experts - York, UK take down our Willow, one branch at a time! The team from https://fund4trees.org.uk/ arrived by bike as part of their fundraising efforts and taught the children about the urban tree life cycle!

Bittersweet planning this afternoon for the removal of our beloved Willow Tree. So lucky to be working with the brilliant @Fund4Trees (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066888947143) and Bartlett Tree Experts - York, UK who will be on-site tomorrow to remove our Willow, before replacing with a beautiful succession tree generously provided by Hillier Trees.
All the children will be involved in the process, learning how the urban tree life cycle can be carefully managed and watching the skilled tree surgeons at work. We will have cuttings from our Willow Tree available after school for any families who wish to take a part of our Willow Tree home with them
