Starting School – Welcome to Our New P1s!

We are very excited to be welcoming 50 new P1 children to Springfield Primary in August. An information session is being held in the school hall on Wednesday 18th May at 6.30 p.m.

This session will be led by the HT (Acting) and parents/ carers will receive an induction booklet, alongside a Powerpoint presentation to get your child off to a flying start from August.

We look forward to welcoming all parents/ carers to our school.

A copy of the presentation can be accessed here for any parents/ carers who were unable to make the meeting.

We would like to point you in the direction of some useful picture books which will help with the transition to Primary School. These can be found on the Book Trust website by clicking this link.

We hope your child will have a very happy school journey with us and we very much look forward to welcoming them to Springfield. Transition visits have already started and more are planned for the next few weeks. Today we will be visiting Oakwell Nursery with First Adventures visit tomorrow. These visits will be with the child’s new class teacher and/ or the HT/ DHT (Acting) along with their new buddy.

Fun and Games in P.E!

P1 – P3/4 donned their gym rubbers and put their creative hats on for P.E today.

The P1’s and P2’s continued their Better Movers and Thinkers work today, with the aim of moving and thinking in a more cohesive way. So far this year, they have been working hard to develop their kinaesthetic awareness and coordination through a variety of ball games. We have seen a huge improvement in the children’s skills over the first few months and have had lots of fun in the process!

Further up the school in P2/3, P3 and P3/4 we were designing new games and sports today, and teaching our peers how to play them. Each team worked collaboratively, communicating effectively and sharing their ideas to create an original game that could be easily taught to the rest of the class. The children took advantage of all the equipment from the P.E cupboard and came up with some amazing ideas for new games. I had to refrain from jumping in and playing them!

Well done P1-4! Have a look at the pictures from today below!
