Arboretum Primary School

On Monday we hosted a neighbourhood roadshow @ArboPrimary . Working with our local partners and agencies is something we prioritise. We are a proud community with the best interests of our children at the centre of all we do #ReachfortheStars

Children in Y4 have been ‘Walking like Egyptians’ with the help of @primevruk . Bringing the curriculum to life is what helps us to know more and remember more. #TheArboretumWay

A visit this week from Sam and Alex - disabled twins with SMA - Spinal Muscular Atrophy. They talked to us about having a positive outlook on life, resilience and overcoming barriers. Meeting inspirational people allows us to make lasting memories #TheArboretumWay @TwinsWithSMA

Introducing our pupils to different cultures and their celebrations builds respect for all. This week Chinese New Year - the year of the horse. #TheArboretumWay

Our school council continuing to make an impact. This time running an after school sale for the National Autistic Society. #TheArboretumWay

MP @BaggyShanker visited us last week and spent time with school council. He then met with the Arboretum debate team to give advice on their debate topic: Should children be given the right to vote? Grateful that have the opportunity to meet inspirational people. #TheArboretumWay

We had a lovely visit from Cecile Wright this week. She talked about her life and the work she is doing now as a councillor. She has invited our pupils to send in their ideas to improve a local park. Another great opportunity for our pupils. #TheArboretumWay @CecileWrightSD

Singing our hearts out at Young Voices last night. Great memories made! #TheArboretumWay @YVconcerts

We met Derby Royal hospital's mascot Lambie today. She came to collect a cheque for £150 that we had raised. School council ran a treat sale. Our money means that the sensory equipment for the children's outpatient's department can now be bought! #TheArboretumWay  @UHDBTrust

We continue to be so well supported as a school by Derbyshire Constabulary. Two visits from two police officers this week were informative and great fun. Enjoyed  by all. #TheArboretumWay @DerbysPolice

A beautiful morning 😊

Attendance is so important. We love hosting our weekly reward table to say thank you for coming to school every day last week.#TheArboretumWay

We want our children to make a positive difference. Today, our school council ran a treat shop and raised £140 to build a sensory unit in the children's ward at Royal Derby hospital. We continue to be proud of our pupils, their ideas and their effort. #TheArboretumWay

So grateful our parents are our partners. This week, helping to mend some poorly cuddly toys. #TheArboretumWay

Sharing our vision and our ‘why’ is so important. We want our children to live life in all its fullness. #DDAT #TheArboretumWay

We loved welcoming our Mums to our first Adult Learning class on Friday. We’re so happy to see you flourishing on your learning journey #TheArboretumWay #community

Demonstrating our core values and paying respect to those who served our country. We enjoyed hearing all about and celebrating our own hero Mr Paul #ReadyRespectfulSafe #TheArboretumWay

Children in Need 2025 🥰 #TheArboretumWay

During anti-bullying week, we have welcomed visitors in to school to share important messages about how bullying isn't welcome here. #TheArboretumWay

A very exciting start to our day! Special thanks to the pilot for our own personal display. #wow #community @AirAmbulancesUK #TheArboretumWay
