It was a real privilege to lead the Woodley Cluster Remembrance Act today, and our head student team did an amazing job.

Knowing that Highwood staff, in particular Jackie Andrews, were integral in making the event happen filled me with pride.

Double rainbow over Highwood on Friday - thank you Mrs. Padbury for the photo.

We had a lovely end to the half term by sharing the books we have written with our friends in the other class. Happy half term everyone!

Highwood Parents: School is open. Registers will stay open until 9:15am to give everyone additional time to travel. A text message has been sent, but I would appreciate you using your own networks to relay the message. Thank you.

Busy time during half term. Not only did we have the library work, Nursery also had their toilets refurbished!

That's a wrap!

Our woodland themed library is finished. A few finishing touches needed before filling it with books. Can't wait for the children to start using it

Coming along nicely!

House Basketball round 2 was played in the beautiful sunshine yesterday with top and bottom of the table clashes. Falcons overcame a tough match vs Redkites to win 2-1 and the Hawks beat Eagles 4-0 which included an awesome “3 pointer” to clinch the match. Final round 23rd Feb🏀

Updated total from our Earthquake Appeal - £1001.67

Thank you so much for the donations - the clothes have been dropped off at The Barber Lounge in Woodley, who are coordinating with the local distribution centre.

They are still in need of baby clothes, nappies and baby food.

Thank you for such a positive response to our Earthquake appeal. To have this many donations in such a short space of time is amazing!

We also raised £868.29 from our non-uniform day, which will be donated to the DEC charity.

.NAPLIC Hi,

I was wondering if you could help me make contact with any primary schools that run an effective Outreach programme for DLD through their Resource Bases?

I have made contact with one school in London and would love to know of any others that exist. Thank you.

We were so proud of the children for entertaining the residents of The Birches today with their nativity songs. It’s been a busy day in Year 1!

Less than half of MPs passed the year 6 #SATs exam that they sat yesterday at our Big SATs Sit In event in Westminster.⁣
