I don't know what to say about this photo! It fills us with so much joy that it is hard to describe. This is the moment that two of our UKS2 boys discovered that they had won a free book from the Spooky Book Bus. I am so glad this moment of utter joy was captured on camera.
We had another fabulous visit with our Year 3/4 pupils to the Priority Care Home in Manningham. You can see from the photos that our pupils' relationships our continuing to develop with the residents, and it was another afternoon of singing, warmth and joy. Wonderful!
We had a fabulous day recently when we took a group of our Year 3/4 pupils to Cartwright Hall to visit the Turner Prize exhibition. The work inspired us to create our own art pieces in a workshop where used different media to create varying effects. Remember families, the Turner Prize exhibition is free to visit so make sure you go and see it before it leaves; it's an inspiring experience.
We are also on the look out for pupils who are talented in different areas at Miriam Lord. This week, a highly talented young man from Year Five visited Mr Harrison and Mr Young to share his sketches. I am sure you will agree that is a future artist in the making.
We couldn't prouder of our pupils who visited our local care home to spend time with residents who have dementia. We talked to the residents, sang songs and played games. Our pupils show nothing but kindness for those who are in greater need or ourselves.
We love Tuesdays at Miriam Lord, because Tuesdays are our yoga days! As you can see from the photo, these sessions have been really effective for our Nursery and Reception pupils in supporting their balance, coordination and core strength. It's fabulous to see!
It's wonderful to see so many different pupils visiting Mr Harrison's office during the day to borrow and talk about books. This is completely unprompted and is happening more and more throughout the day. Keep it up, and remember, great readers make great learners.
