🌟💜 Staff Spotlight 💜🌟
It’s time to shine our Staff Spotlight on another member of the Badger Hill team. This week, we’re getting to know Miss Lochner, who joined us in September and works across Reception and Key Stage 1.
Have a read to discover why Miss Lochner ...is already feeling right at home at Badger Hill, which much-loved children's author she simply can't get enough of, and how being a self-confessed 'boy mam' has influenced her rather unusual Christmas decorations!
We're not sure we've ever come across a dinosaur Christmas tree before, Miss Lochner, but we'd definitely love to see a photo!
Proud to be a Badger 🦡💜

🚒🔥 Cleveland Fire Brigade Visit – Bonfire Night Safety 🎆
Yesterday, we welcomed Cleveland Fire Brigade into the academy to teach our children all about staying safe this Bonfire Night.
Children in Reception and KS1 enjoyed their own assembly, followed by a separate ...session for our KS2 pupils. Both assemblies were packed with interesting facts about the fire service and important advice about keeping ourselves and others safe.
The children learnt some valuable safety tips, including:
🔥 Only adults should light bonfires.
🔥 Only wood should be burnt on a bonfire.
🔥 Bonfires must be carefully managed to prevent fires from spreading.
🦔 Always check for hedgehogs and other small creatures before lighting a bonfire.
🎆 Never return to a firework once it has been lit.
✨ Sparklers must be handled with care. Did you know that a sparkler can reach temperatures around 20 times hotter than boiling water?
Our children also made a very important promise to become Mini Fire Wardens, helping to share their new knowledge and remind their families how to stay safe during Bonfire Night celebrations.
A huge thank you to Cleveland Fire Brigade for visiting us and sharing such important safety messages.
🎇 Enjoy Bonfire Night, everyone, and remember to stay safe.

🌿📚 Little Adventures, Big Learning! 💜
From zooming down the slide to sharing stories in our cosy outdoor reading area, our 2-year-olds love making the most of their outdoor learning.
We especially love those little moments when a story sparks a conversation, a familiar ...song or a lovely interaction with a trusted adult. 🥰
These everyday experiences are so important for developing children's communication, language, confidence and love of learning.
So much more than just play. 💜🐾
