💜⭐ Proud to be a Badger ⭐💜

Today, our children had the opportunity to showcase their learning to members of our Senior Leadership Team, sharing some of the fantastic work they have produced across the school.

We saw brilliant science work from Years 3/4 exploring solids,... liquids and gases, explanation texts about making Christmas puddings from Year 5 and fantastic RE work from Year 6 exploring Sikhism, alongside lots of other wonderful examples of learning.

It was lovely to see our children proudly talking through their work, explaining what they had learnt and celebrating the effort they had put into it.

So much to be proud of! Well done, Badgers! 💜⭐

🌺 Remembering Together at Badger Hill 🌺

Yesterday, we were honoured to welcome retired Major Paul Liddell of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME), who joined us to help Badger Hill mark Remembrance.

Paul shared fascinating stories and special memories from ...his 30 years of service between 1984 and 2014, as well as explaining the meaning behind his medals. He also spoke about why we wear poppies, the significance of the two-minute silence and the importance of Remembrance – not only to honour those who have sacrificed their lives in the past, but also to remember those serving today and the families who support them.

It was also lovely to see children who are members of organisations such as Scouts, Cubs, Beavers, Brownies and Guides proudly wearing their uniforms to mark the occasion.

The children's behaviour was impeccable, and they were all Proud to be a Badger, showing the utmost respect throughout. 💜

A particularly important message that shone through every story Paul shared was the value of teamwork. He helped the children understand how teamwork is essential, both through individuals working together to achieve a common goal and through countries joining forces and supporting one another. It was a powerful message about unity, cooperation and the strength we can achieve when we stand together.

Paul finished with an excellent question-and-answer session, where he was genuinely impressed by the thoughtful questions the children asked.

We are incredibly grateful to Paul for giving up his time to visit us and helping our children develop a deeper understanding of the importance of Remembrance. 🌺

🌿 A Little Spruce-Up at the Front of School! 🌼

Our Year 6 Head Students, Heidi and Harriet, have been busy lending a helping hand to Mrs McCready, giving the front of school a little refresh! 🌱

They’ve been getting stuck in, sorting the plants and helping to make the ...entrance to school that little bit more welcoming.

We’re sure you’ll notice the difference! Well done, girls! 👏
