Admiring the Spring flowers around school on this windy evening, I was reminded of this poem. I always think of daffodils shivering when I see them! @jmatschools

We had a special delivery on Monday in F2. Real live caterpillars! When they arrived they were just tiny little dots but they have been munching away and are already starting to grow big and fat. Some have already shed their skin. @jmatschools

@ClareShillito1 That is amazing! Such opportunities which could plant a seed for a future career! @jmatschools

[Hooton Pagnell CofE @HPCOFE]

Come and work with us at our lovely little school. @jmatschools @MyDoncaster @rosis @ForgeCPD

Awesome Barrington Stoke have created a sample two chapters of my first WW2 Cornwall novel. Out May 7. You can read it here.

Ramadan Mubarak 🌙 Our older Muslim pupils and staff are now fasting and very proud to take part in this part of their faith. These books are real windows and mirrors at this special time. @jmatschools

Miss Shillito brought parkour workshops to school today and it was brilliant! Who knows how many children - or staff - have discovered a new passion? Here are some photos from F2. @jmatschools

A great start to the new year: Y3's book review of Lenny Lemmon and the Invincible Rat @bendavis_86 @NosyCrow is live on Amazon. Reviews help us in Book World Cups so we like to give a little back to help other readers - and awesome authors too! @jmatschools

I'm THRILLED to be able to share the front cover (by Melissa Chaib) for my brand-new book THE DAD TRAP!

If you have 8-13 year olds in your life who love silly, funny, action-packed stories full of chaos, pranks and mischief, they might like this!

Here are some more reviews. We worked hard to show our similar shared appreciation and enjoyment in different writing. Excellent service and gorgeous venue. We will be back - as a school or with our other families! @jmatschools

@ArcCinemaUK After our private screening at Rotherham’s new cinema, we wrote our own reviews. The children wanted to show how much they enjoyed the visit which was a first for many! 🎥 🍿 @jmatschools

Heart-warming bedtime read for Mrs Fenton last night courtesy of Y2. Their three word review in on yellow and my little review is on pink. Reviews help readers find their next book. @jmatschools

[Ferham Primary @PrimaryFerham]

@HPCOFE @jmatschools Mrs Fenton loved Silent Night! Have you read Milton the Mighty by the same author? It is very different and equally good!

[Ferham Primary @PrimaryFerham]

Look at these! The very first character sketches of The Woodcutter and the Snowprince @MrEagletonIan @jmatschools (only showing one so as not to give too much away!) And the editing is just like we do in school! BSL too! Totally inclusive xxx

[Ferham Primary @PrimaryFerham]

KS1 and 2 are now enjoying a virtual author visit with @MrEagletonIan and over 40 other @jmatschools classes. How lucky are we?!

[Ferham Primary @PrimaryFerham]

Yes!

With the #WorldCup2026 draw later on… just to say I am hoping to do a live World Cup story for schools again… like I did for Brazil2014 and Russia2018 and France 2019. Depends on one or two things, but fingers crossed….

December 6th is Mikulas! A true Ferhamised version of this Czech and Slovak tradition has got to be Y4 singing to him in Spanish. The devil is unimpressed and trying to give out potatoes already! Will the angel persuade him otherwise……? @jmatschools

[Ferham Primary @PrimaryFerham]

Today saw the start of another much-loved Christmas tradition here at Ferham: our KS2 Christmas novel which we enjoy together every day after lunch. This year we are reading The Other Father Christmas by Serena Holly. @jmatschools

[Ferham Primary @PrimaryFerham]

Thank you @GrimmAndCo for inspiring our Y2 writers on their visit last week. I have enjoyed reading their book and it is clear that Sparkles- one of their characters - is not the only one who is ‘accomplished’. @jmatschools
