Memorable experiences

We have worked hard to enhance our curriculum with as many trips and visitors as possible. We believe that children learn best through experience and an enhanced curriculum is a quality curriculum. Examples of our enhancement are listed below. 

  • Trips linked to different curriculum subjects.

  • Regular opportunities to share his/her achievements in assemblies and other whole school events.

  • Regular opportunities to contribute towards his/her learning and be involved in decision-making that effects the whole school through pupil voice.

  • Opportunities to represent the school through sporting events.

  • Opportunities to join a wide range of clubs and extra-curricular activities both after school and during lunchtimes.

  • The opportunity to play the guitar.

  • Opportunities to work with the Parish community and cluster schools on community projects e.g. Birkenhead Park Community Project

  • The opportunity to undertake First Aid training.

  • The opportunity to undertake Road Safety training.

  • Opportunities to perform in plays and other dramatic and musical performances.

  • On-going opportunities to learn through practical, hands-on, investigative activities e.g. growing fruit and vegetables, cooking, etc

  • Opportunities for residential visits in Year 5 and Year 6.
