Trinity Academy Transition
Please see the attached information from Trinity in readiness for transition next week!
Crew Pearson – individual liberty transition tasks.
We discussed individual liberty again in crew today, with the children able to tell me that it’s all about the freedom of speech and having the right to express themselves within the rule of law.
We then transferred this onto a small transition tasks where the children were able to write or draw something for their new teacher which expressed something linked to them. This could be questions (curiosity), thoughts and beliefs, a description of their selves to inform who they are and likes and dislikes, things they would like to see in their classroom… anything at all!
the classroom had never been so quiet, all cracked on and thought about something to create.
KS1 Paddington Picnic 8.7.25
Hi everyone,
Here is a message to invite you to our Paddington Picnic on Tuesday 8th July 2025 (8.7.25). This will be held at school and the children are excited to show you their beautiful learning from this Expedition.
The time of the picnic will be 2pm and we welcome you all to come and enjoy. Hopefully the weather will be kind to us and you are more than welcome to bring your picnic blankets with you, if you would like.
We look forward to seeing as many of you as we can! 🙂

Key stage 1 dance workshop
5 children with great HOWLs from each crew, were chosen to take part in a workshop this morning. They used lots of PE skills throughout and then ended by making up a fantastic dance! The children were all amazing and loved the experience. Mrs Clay managed to watch it all and said the children all joined in 100% and really put their all into it! Well done guys!
Year 5 – THANK YOU MR PICKLES!
Throughout the Summer term, Year 5 have been so lucky to have had the support of Mr Pickles each week for our chair drumming lessons. Throughout the term we’ve built on our skills, stamina and enjoyed being outside drumming in the sunshine and even sharing some quality time learning chair drumming with our family and carers during family learning. None of this would have been possible without Mr Pickles’ expertise and patience with us all!
On behalf of ALL of Year 5, we’d like to give a public shout out to you Mr Pickles, for all your help and support – we have enjoyed having you as our expert throughout our expedition!
Crew Yr5! x
