When children are healthy, happy and safe, curiosity is ignited and learning is optimised. In this section, you will find out what children in school and nursery have been learning this week.
What a fantastic morning! We cannot thank everyone enough for all of their hard work.
A new gate has been made from an old fence panel to make the entrance wider and the whole space more accessible. The greenhouses are sparkly too. We just need to order a few sleepers and some extra bits to reinforce the back fence.
Lots of work has been done down in Forest School, ready for Welly Wanderers.
Look how full the skip is too!
Year 3 had a great afternoon discovering how different components of an electrical circuit work 
The whole school made such a fantastic effort with our World Book Day Celebrations. Here are Year 6 for their final World Book Day celebrations at John Wilkinson Primary School and Nursery. Thank you to parents for their efforts and support!
Years 3 and 4 enjoyed having Rashmika, our Hindu friend, in school last week. She made us think deeply about our similarities, differences and feelings.
We then got creative and had opportunities to look at traditional dress and learn some traditional dance. We made bracelets for 'brothers day', puja plates and flower garlands like in a traditional Hindu Wedding!
Fun was had by all!
In year 3 we have had an awesome session learning about the local history linked to Broseley and the River Severn. Our thanks to Caroline Bagnall for coming in to school to share her knowledge!
We are encouraging everyone to dress up on Friday (8th March) for World Book Day. We would encourage all of the children to think about a character they would like to be, and then come in clothes that reflect their choice. Officially World Book Day is on Thursday 7th March, but due to a lot of our classes having PE that day, we have made the decision to dress up on Friday instead. Each child will receive a World Book Day token which we hope that they can use towards the purchase of a book.
On Friday, some children in Nursery and Reception class enjoyed taking part in learning how to ride balance bikes. They were fantastic and listened brilliantly to the trainer. Well done! 
Our parent and toddler group was busy this week, with lots of children enjoying a range of activities. Come along and enjoy on Wednesdays (term time) between 9.05 and 10.30am.

Our Year 3 class are working so hard on their TT Rockstars, and making amazing progress. Well done everyone!
Children in Nursery had a lovely week learning about the celebration of Chinese New Year. They looked at various ways of finding out information whether through books or using technology. They painted Chinese letters and dragons, took part in our role play Chinese takeaway and tried lots of different foods. Yum!
Thank you to all of our Toddler Group families that have supported our new group. Children and parents have had lots of fun! We return on Wednesday 20th February 2024 and look forward to seeing you then!
Year 6 have been investigating insoluble and soluble materials.
In groups they went around the classroom in a carousel, testing different materials to see if it would dissolve in water. They made sure to keep it a fair test by ensuring certain variables were kept the same. Once finished, we discussed and wrote our results as a class.
With curry powder, vinegar, mustard and coffee on the materials list, it was quite stinky in the classroom afterwards!
