@HorburyAcademy Our pupils had a fantastic time with you over the 2 days, they are looking forward to starting in September!

Year 2 have completed their Secret Agent Training this week and have had a treat day today to celebrate! They have had a great day and we are so proud of the hard work they have put in!

Our latest You've Been Spotted children enjoyed their trip to Hickory's Smokehouse yesterday! Thank you Paul at Hickory's for looking after us as always! @Hickorys_

Our year 5 children have been very thoughtful and creative when writing their poetry about love in their RE lesson.

We have had a great day celebrating the King's Coronation. The children have enjoyed lots of fun activities including a photo booth! Obviously a few staff had to test it out ready for the children to have a go! #kingscoronation #spfamily

Class 7 started a new art unit today ‘Music and Art’. We looked at how both subjects are connected and how this influenced the artist Kandinsky. The children had the chance to slow draw, listening to the beat of a metronome as well as creating visual notes about Kandinsky.

Our acorn has now sprouted leaves. Look through Class 15's window to see how it progresses. Class 15 planted carrots and potatoes last week. They are also growing onions, garlic and a selection of annual flowers that they hope will brighten up the area outside their classroom.

Year 2 have presented their half-termly projects this afternoon. Their task was to show what they know about plants. We loved re-capping our sticky learning from this Science unit.

Our Year 2 pupils have been developing their sewing skills during our DT unit. Each child has designed an individual bookmark and have used a running stich to attach different pieces of material together.

Year 4 children have thoroughly enjoyed the outreach programme from Wakefield Museums called ‘The Wild Escape’. @WFMuseums

There will be an opportunity to purchase some of Conrad’s books from school in the coming weeks, watch this space! We hope you enjoyed visiting your former Primary School @conradburdekin 😊

What an exciting first day back! Today we were visited by author and poet Conrad Burdekin. Conrad led assemblies for our KS1 & KS2 children, sharing some of his entertaining poems with us; as well as carrying out poetry workshops with our Year 2 pupils #weareauthors #wearepoets

Gruel, stick picking, twine unraveling, sewing and horrible exercises have been mentioned by Mr Lewty and Mr Tyrrell..... #crimeandpunishment #victorianschool #victorianclassroom #wearehistorians #gruel

Today is #Victorian day in Year 5! The classrooms were set up with chalk and black paper (we don't have any blackboards!) The children are dressed in their Victorian outfits and the teaching staff look a little scary :)

Year 4 enjoyed taking part in a paperchain activity which helped the children to think about the people, things and activities they feel connected to. #letsconnect #childrensmentalhealthweek2023 #mentalhealth

This year's theme for Children's Mental Health Week is Let’s Connect which is about making meaningful connections. People thrive in communities, and this connection is vital for our #wellbeing .
