All is set for our first performance of the year as our new Year 5s demonstrate their creative talents at our Spooktacular evening. 83 students performing as groups or individuals. Just the tonic for a cold, winters evening. #CreativityAtOldfieldsHallMiddleSchool@oldfieldsTL

🌟 A fantastic day at Oldfields Middle School 🌟
We witnessed some truly inspirational and creative opportunities for writing, including in subjects like Maths and Art. This is all part of a two-year writing project across the Innovate2 Educate Partnership.
