It was lovely to celebration the achievements of our learners today, what a talented bunch of young people! First up was our wider achievement awards:

Well done to our Head Teacher Award winners for impressing staff so much with your hard work and demonstrating our school values. It was lovely to have hot chocolate with you.

Finally, our golden coin winner this month was awarded a golden coin to use in our vending machine for excellent progress in writing. It was even more exciting as she had the first pick of our newly restocked selection of books. Thank you to our parent council for their support in fundraising to support this.

Our Little Chefs lunchtime club was popular this week, with pizzas on the menu! The children enjoyed preparing their own pizza and decorating pizza boxes.

What an incredible effort from everyone this morning at our World Book Day parade, it was a fantastic start to our celebrations. Can you spot your favourite Julia Donaldson character from our staff?

As part of our commitment to challenging diversity, we have been working on The Show Racism The Red Card national competition for schools. We have been learning about the important role that we all can play in tackling racism and discrimination and the children had very mature and well-thought responses in our discussion in assembly. Here are a selection of the fantastic entries that Longridge submitted to the competition.

Thank you to the families who joined us for our Burns Celebration. We have continued the celebrations into this week with recitals of A Dug, A Dug in assembly. Well done to all of our very talents pupils for showing courage when performing to an audience.
