'Christmas has landed at Whingate!'

Today the children had a surprise visit from two of Santa's reindeer, Holly and Dasher. The children absolutely loved the visit and happily fed and stroked them. It has been a really special day, something the children and staff will never forget. We will keep you posted the other Christmas surprises still to come. 

Big Garden Birdwatch

Lots of children celebrated the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch weekend through their Maths at Home activities. It is always lovely to see examples of the conversations about Maths which families are having at home, and as you can see from just this small selection of examples, the standard of presentation in Maths at Home books is also excellent! 

Christmas Food Hampers

We had a fantastic response to our appeal for donations for Christmas food hampers to support families in our school community.
