Children across school have been enjoying a focus on science this week, as they have explored all things STEM to celebrate British Science Week.

We believe that all our pupils are scientists, and on Monday they dressed as their favourite type of scientist; we have been thinking about all of the many different types of science there are, and the amazing jobs people do within the world of STEM.

Well done to all our scientists for taking part- we look forward to seeing how you you science to make a positive impact in the world in the future.

The children and teachers had lots of fun creating WBD doors last week. There were lots of different designs, all linking to books and stories the children know and love.

There was Bunny vs Monkey, The Explorer, The Odd Fish, Where’s Wally and a collaboration of the children’s thoughts and feelings.

The Class 1 door (The Odd Fish) was chosen as the winning door in school, with Class 2 at St Lawrence being the winner across the Federation.

Well done to everyone involved in creating these lovely celebrations of stories.

On Friday morning, the choir from St Lawrence school came over to Tibberton for a rehearsal ahead of our concert at the Royal Albert Hall in July!

The children worked hard with the staff from Armonico Consort, and sounded beautiful together. Rehearsals will continue with staff at the schools, and we are hoping for another visit from the experts before the summer.

We look forward to sharing the choir’s work with you either in London, or via a recording if you are unable to make it.

Well done to all of the children (and staff) involved.

Both schools competed brilliantly in the Telford Schools Football Competition with great effort, teamwork and sportsmanship.

St Lawrence finished a very valiant 7th and Tibberton played amazingly well to finish in 3rd place with a bronze medal.

Well done everyone; we are very proud of you.

As we make our way through the special time of Lent, we wanted to share an approach you could try instead of giving something up.

Why not work as a family to try new things, or to do things for others? This way, we can have a positive impact on our communities, and enjoy the good feeling of making a difference.

We are at the end of our short Spring 1 half term.

Thank you for your support and partnership over the last half term. We wish you all a happy and fun half term, and look forward to hearing about all the children’s adventures when they return to school on Tuesday 20th March.

Keep praying for some better weather!
