Tibberton Visit
This year we are again running our programme of transition visits for local Year 4 children as they prepare for life in middle school. Today we were delighted to welcome all of the children from the Upper Unit at Tibberton First School for the first such visit of the new school year! The class spent the afternoon on the Muga developing their basketball skills with one of our PE subject leaders Mr Treadwell. They all told us they had a great time and we wish all of the children well for the rest of this school year and into the future!
Chawson Year 3 Visit
We were delighted to welcome all of the Year 3 children from Chawson First School! The classes used our Cooking Room facilities to make their own pizzas as part of their current learning about Italy. The children all seemed to enjoy themselves and were a real credit to their school!
Hindlip / Tibberton Visit
We were delighted to welcome the Year 3/4 children from Hindlip and Tibberton First Schools to spend the afternoon with us at Westacre. The children spent time with Mr Treadwell in our Sports Hall and did a great job using our school trampoline equipment! They also worked with Mrs Page in the Music Room, where they enjoyed the opportunity to have a go on the steel pan drums. Well done to all of the children involved for their outstanding effort, enthusiasm and behaviour throughout the afternoon!

Well done to all of the children involved for their outstanding effort, enthusiasm and behaviour throughout the day, and to some of our Year 7 children for their help as well!
