I absolutely loved spending the afternoon in Y2. Listening to pupils talk about how much they love their music lessons @WakefieldMusHub @PontefractAT #Performance #Confidence #Passion

[Northfield Primary School @NorthfieldSch]

In music, Year 2 performed the song ‘I Wanna Play in a Band’, with their instruments, to their chosen audience, Miss Howard. She was very impressed 🎶 #NorthfieldPRIDE

A fantastic poetry day at Northfield with @paulcooksonpoet filled with performances, workshops, comic book signings and some freebies for his helpers for the day! The children have loved getting involved and have left feeling inspired to write their own poems! #poetryday

[Northfield Primary School @NorthfieldSch]

Class 6 had an amazing time with @paulcooksonpoet ! We had an afternoon full of laughter and realised that poetry can be based on… well, anything! 📝
