Guided Reading in year 1

In guided reading this week, the Year 1 bubbles have been reading ‘After the Fall’ a book about what happens to Humpty Dumpty after he falls from the wall. Today we have been making our very own Humpty Dumpty and his wall to help us sequence the story.

Y1 Ash Trees bubble have produced some amazing artwork this afternoon. First we went out into the wooded area to collect leaves. Then we used wax crayons to make rubbings of our leaves to fill our paper.

A peek inside the welcome packs that our Reception class teachers; Mrs Robinson and Miss Clark are hand delivering today to all new children that will be joining us in September 2020. We cannot wait to welcome you to school in September and watch your learning journey begin, in our Ofsted rated “Good School”. There are still a few spaces available if you would like to join our “Happy and successful school”.

Please see details for students and families of Year 6 children that will be joining Haven High in September 2020

Our new year 3 Haven bubble have had a fabulous first day back! They have adapted back into school life with a new routine and should be very proud of their first day back.

Y6 Rosalind Franklin bubble have created some amazing artwork this week. We learnt about Pop art, then we worked in the style of illustrator and printer Benjamin Henry Day Jr. using Ben Day dots. Great attention to detail. Well done everyone

Dear Parents / Carers,

I am delighted that I am now able to share with you the outcome of our Ofsted inspection which took place on 3^rd and 4^th March this year.

This inspection was our first under the new framework for inspection. This is a robust and rigorous framework which considers the extent to which a school delivers a broad and balanced curriculum.

The outcome of the inspection is that Park Academy is now judged as a ‘Good’ school in all areas. The inspectors recognised our many strengths and we are incredibly proud that they were able to acknowledge the many things our school provides: the exciting curriculum we offer; the excellent behaviour at our school and the determination from all, that children will succeed at Park Academy.

The first line of the inspection report says it all – ‘Park Academy is a happy and successful school’ and I could not be prouder of our children, staff and families.

If you wish to read the full report, I have included the link below.

Many thanks,

Miss Gray

An excellent return to school for some of our Y6 children this week – well done!

Year 1 have enjoyed learning in their new bubbles and have spent time outside exploring the the school’s nature area, looking at the different types of leaves and discussing the changes of seasons.
