📚✨ Year 3 have had their curiosity well and truly sparked this week by The Mysteries of Harris Burdick!
The intriguing illustrations have already inspired some fantastic writing - and it’s only day 2! ✍️
We can’t wait to see where their imagination takes them next… 👀📖

We are so proud of your progress.

🎉 Happy Birthday, Sir David! 🌍
Our children understand just how important it is to care for our planet 🌱💚. Last year, Year 6 wrote to Sir David Attenborough to share what they’d been learning about the environment, and we were delighted when he wrote back, telling us we were setting a great example!
It meant so much to receive such a thoughtful letter from someone so inspiring.
Wishing you a wonderful day, Sir David! 🎂👏

A question to pose about poetry and prose! 😉
This month's reading mission is all about poetry.
Mrs MacMeekin has chosen anthologies, picture books and verse novels.
There is a poem and poet for everybody.
What's your favourite? #theliteracytree #NoremarshJuniorSchool #royalwoottonbassett #lovebooks #poetry
What a mystery! 🔍
Our Y6's came into scenes of devastation yesterday. 😯
It looked like something had huffed and puffed through the window, shattering the frame and leaving debris in its wake. 💨 When they saw the bricks, sticks and straw they thought they knew the full story, but the press conference revealed that things were not quite as they seemed! 🐺🐷 #LearningThroughPlay #theliteracytree #NoremarshJuniorSchool #ReadyToLearn
With the warmer weather (hopefully!) making an appearance, our Play Pod will be getting plenty of use.
It isn’t just about fun (although there’s lots of that!), it’s about giving children the space to be creative and lead their own learning.
Following our latest Play Pod restock, the children have been:
• Creating dens and imaginative spaces
• Working together to solve problems
• Exploring role play and storytelling
• Building confidence, resilience and friendships
All through open‑ended, child‑led play, making the most of time outdoors.
This kind of play helps children develop skills they’ll use every day in the classroom — communication, teamwork, creativity and independence — all while having an absolute blast.
A huge thank you to Wiltshire Scrap Store for helping us turn everyday materials into extraordinary play experiences.
