Fantastic team work this morning at Dallowgill to complete our jobs. Lots of Dallowbills given out to reward them for a great effort! Hmmm, I wonder what we can buy with this special currency?

Wow, thank you to NCS group 6. They have done a fabulous job transforming the front of the school into a reading area. Thank you for all your hard work, we are sure the children will love it.
We are loving the 'Home Economics' lessons! 🧁🧺👚🏡🔧🔨Laundry, building furniture and lots of baking! Life skills are so important and help to develop fine motor skills. Keep sharing your home learning with us on Tapestry! 🤩

What a lovely day for a hike up to Greys Garth monument 🌄. Year 5 did fantastically well throughout and completed the 3 mile hike up and down many steep hills.
We have arrived at PGL! Our wonderful Year 5s and 6s are very excited. Time for a tour with our group leader to see all the amazing activities we’re going to be doing this weekend!
Years 3 and 4 are very excited for their polar experience!

. Our day is getting started with a polar talk all about Antartica and the Artic!
Phonics is a real focus at Willows Academy so that children can unlock the magical word of books. It is a pleasure to work collaboratively with RWI to attain good outcomes. Last year, 82% of our children passed their phonics screening check!

Every week, we discuss a topic and answer a question. This week's question is below, it would be great if you could discuss this with your child at home too!

Today we are saddened by the death of Queen Elizabeth II, tomorrow we will be holding an assembly to discuss how respected this lady was and share some memories.
Today, Willows Academy danced their way through the history of the Queen's reign. Here's Year 5 performing a street dance celebrating 2010-2020. Thank you
@educationgroup
for leading these fantastic workshops.
We are so proud of our year 6 children, they have had 3 weeks of 100% attendance! A huge well done! The next challenge has been set... another three weeks and they will earn an even bigger reward which will fall on the last day of SATs!

We are currently implementing a new initiative across the Academy. All children will be offered a bagel on arrival to class in the morning. This will ensure that all children get the chance of a free healthy breakfast to start the day!
Great to hear that we have been selected for a national attendance award from FFT. We are in the top 10% of primary schools in England! Thanks to all of our parents for working with us to get children in school every day!

A fantastic polish lesson today led by our year 6 pupil Mary, she is most definitely a teacher in the making! We learnt about Polish Christmas traditions and even sang Silent Night in Polish! A huge well done Mary!
Today, despite challenging circumstances, our amazing Y6 children finished their mock SATs tests! I cannot express how proud Miss Stephenson and I are of the results they achieved! They were all focused and determined to improve their scores. Well done Y6 you are fantastic!! 😊👍
We are so impressed with the incredible work being submitted on Seesaw and how the children are responding to feedback from teachers. Look at this fantastic piece of art from one of our children!

Yesterday we were learning about the amazing life and fundraising achievements of Sir Captain Tom Moore, today we drew portraits inspired by Sebarnold Design's fantastic picture. These pictures were drawn by Jaydan, Keyon, Sam and Mr Woolliss.🏅🏥
Willows Academy's Author of the Week Book Club started today. We focused on Eric Carle (KS1) and Roald Dahl (KS2). Great discussion and lots of excitement 📚
To spread some Christmas cheer, this year we have a Christmas tree in the playground so that all of our children and families can enjoy it.
