🚒 A visit from Loftus Fire Brigade 🚒
What an exciting day we had at Badger Hill Academy.
Our EYFS children loved meeting the Loftus Fire Brigade and getting a closer look at the fire engine. They even had a go at using the hose to spray some of our crates on the KS2 ...yard.
There was plenty of excitement as the children listened to the sirens and the fire engine’s horn. It was a fantastic hands-on experience and a brilliant opportunity to learn more about the important work firefighters do.
A huge thank you to Loftus Fire Brigade for taking the time to visit us. We really appreciate it. ❤️

🌿 LIVING THINGS AND THEIR HABITATS 🌿
This half term, our Year 1/2 children have been exploring the fascinating world of living things and their habitats.
We began by learning to identify things that are alive, dead and have never been alive. The children did a fantastic job ...sorting objects and had some brilliant discussions about materials such as wood, recognising that it was once part of a living tree. They also loved exploring the school grounds to find objects that fitted into each of these groups! 🌳
Next, we explored what living things need to survive and learned about life processes. The children had some fantastic discussions about how plants move, even when we can’t see it happening. They were fascinated to watch a sped-up video of a fern unfurling its leaves! 🌱
We then turned our attention to habitats, investigating how different plants and animals are suited to the environments in which they live. The children showed great understanding of the needs of different creatures and why some can survive in certain habitats but not others. 🐾
🔎 What’s next? We’ll be bringing our learning a little closer to home as we investigate the school grounds to discover the different microhabitats living right on our doorstep!
Well done, Year 1/2, for your brilliant curiosity, thoughtful discussions and enthusiasm for Science! ⭐

Celebrating Black History Month at Badger Hill Academy ✊🏿
To celebrate the start of Black History Month, on Thursday, Y1-Y6 children took part in a PictureNews live assembly led by Swarzey, the award-winning BBC radio host and presenter.
Black History Month is an important time ...for us to celebrate the achievements, contributions and stories of black people, both past and present. It gives us the opportunity to learn about the people who have helped shape our world, like Rosa Parks, recognise the challenges they have faced and celebrate the positive impact they have made on society. It also reminds us of the importance of equality, respect and understanding, ensuring that everyone’s history, culture and experiences are valued and celebrated.
This year's theme is about 'Honouring our Communities. Black History Month is not just about looking back at the past; it is also about thinking carefully about the future we want to create together. We finished the assembly with three important messages:
🌍 You don't have to be famous to make history;
🌍 Big change starts with small acts of kindness;
🌍 So go out, lift others up and make history in our community. ❤️
