What a fantastic week it’s been at New Horizons! Our Year 6 children had an unforgettable adventure on their Residential Trip to the Isle of Wight, making lifelong memories while exploring the great outdoors. Meanwhile, those who stayed behind enjoyed a week packed with fun, including a trip to the cinema, baking delicious treats, and an exhilarating visit to the Bewl Water Aqua Park.

What a busy and exciting week we've had at school! Despite the rainy weather, our incredible Year 1 and 2 pupils showed true determination and team spirit during their Sports Day—well done to all of them for taking part with such enthusiasm. Thankfully, the sun came out just in time for our Year 3 and 4 Sports Day, and it was a joy to see everyone enjoying the activities.

It's been a lovely week at New Horizons as we reach the end of June. This week, our Year 6 children have begun their transition to secondary school, with many attending special events at their new schools. We're so proud of how they're embracing this next chapter.

We are moving quickly through the month of June, and I’d like to take a moment to say a big well done to all our pupils for their hard work this week. Congratulations to our Year 1 and Year 2 children who have taken part in their phonics screening checks, to our Year 2 pupils for their effort and focus during end-of-year assessments, and to our Year 4 children who completed the Multiplication Tables Check. Your support at home plays a vital role in helping your child make progress—thank you for all that you do.

Welcome back to Term 6. We hope you had an enjoyable half term. We have a busy term ahead with productions, trips and the Year 6 residential visit. Children are showing hard working attitudes to their learning and we had a positive quality assurance visit this week from other leaders in the Trust who were impressed with our phonics teaching and curriculum development this year.

We have had a final busy and creative week of term here at New Horizons. Year 6 have enjoyed their DT textile project where they designed and created their own soft toy including turtles and starfish. Year 3 have also been making clay jewellery pieces and Year 5 have also produced amazing unique maps using mixed media.
