Over the past week, our children in Years 2 to 6 have performed to a packed house. Willow Brook's production of Superstan was an action packed journey to Megaville, where heroes battled to save the city from the evil Candy King! As you can see from the photos, the four performances were full of [...]
In late November, eight children in years 5 & 6 attended a rowing festival (on machines!) just down the road at South Wolds Academy. The children faced a series of challenges and achieved their best score on their very last attempt! Well done team! We have also had two multi skills festivals in [...]
It is always a pleasure to support the BBC's Children in Need fundraiser and Willow Brook does it with superhero strength! It is a charity close to our hearts and helps our young people to be a community in action for children who might not have the opportunities and privileges that we so often [...]
Tuesday was the start of Willow Brook's Anti-Bullying Week. We came together with Andy and his Odd Socks to remember how important it was to celebrate difference and promote respect. Everyone in school listened to some good advice on how to treat our friends and also how to show self-respect. We wrote pledges, talked [...]
The Willow Brook half term is off to a action-packed start with the Big Bad Wolf introducing our whole-school topic, Heroes and Villains'! It's easy to believe what you've always heard... the wolf, with his sharp teeth, razor-sharp claws and reputation for spoiling more than one traditional tale, is not to be trusted. But [...]
It was a pleasure to welcome you all to our Friday morning MacMillan Coffee Morning last week. As you can see from the photos, there's nothing better than a slice of cake and a brew to get the day underway! Your brilliant bake off entries were nothing short of spectacular and I had no [...]
There's nothing better than a sunny September afternoon to bring the community together for an afternoon of fun and sport. Our whole-school Potted Sport event saw Year 6 take the lead and head up teams that completed various challenges and activities. It's all about working together and practising our 5 C's. As you can [...]
Since Monday, Year 2 have taken a lot of pride and effort in making original board games with Mr Boyd. Whether making them individually or in a small group, their ideas have been ingenious. They have also had the opportunity to share and play their games with Year 3. Tomorrow they will be bringing [...]
After lots of hard work making and playing our own board games (see our other year 2 post), year 2 enjoyed some extra time outside. It was a happy time with lots of different activities taking place. The circus came to Willow Brook, the cricket game was exciting, Mr Boyd joined in the football [...]
Gillian the giraffe has been the mascot of my class for the past 7 years (5 years in Class 3 and 2 years in Class 1). Each week, she has dutifully gone home with a different child who has impressed me with their writing and gone on some fabulous adventures over the weekend with [...]
