Our fabulous choir had their final Christmas carolling performance at Woodlands Methodist Church this afternoon. The children have been in high demand this Christmas - we're going to have to sort a booking system for next year!

Christmas came early for Reception this morning when the children found presents under the classroom Christmas tree! The children thoroughly enjoyed playing with their new toys and games today. Thank you to Santa (and the PTFA) for the wonderful gifts!

And here's the children (and grown-ups) singing carols whilst waiting for their train at Leeds station!

Some more photos from the Year 5 trip to Leeds yesterday! The children had the chance to travel on the train in all weathers and to visit Leeds City Museum. They did a treasure trail around the museum and had an Anglo Saxon workshop to end their history unit!

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

Amazing resilience and determination from all of Year 5 today who have dealt with train delays, overcrowded platforms and unhelpful network rail staff. We had a lovely email from a member of the public who was on the same train back, staying the children behaved brilliantly!

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

@northernassist we've got 60 children and adults stuck at Leeds waiting to get home. We need station staff to help prioritise getting them onto overcrowded trains safely

The most fabulous nativity by our Nursery and Reception children this morning - thank you to all the parents and family able to attend. The children were so proud of themselves and loved singing and performing for you!

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

A group of Year 5 children went carolling at Fairfax Manor this afternoon. The residents loved having us and showed their appreciation with some well-earned juice and biscuits. The children were amazing and it certainly got us all in the Christmassy spirit! 🎄

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

5KW performed speeches to our partners today and some brave children chose to stand up and share their persuasive arguments about how to change their future for the better! They talked confidently and knowledgeably about climate change, carbon footprints and the greenhouse effect

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

What a fantastic festive afternoon! Thank you to everyone who came along to hear the children sing and joined in the fun - we hope everyone has finally dried off!

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

Our brilliant Nursery children went to Fairfax Manor to sing Christmas songs to the residents. The children sang beautifully and confidently, we are so proud of them!

Year 4 have been doing observational drawing in art, using these exhibits that we are borrowing from Kirklees council and museums. As part of this we have had the opportunity to discuss why people used to display animals and the importance of looking after the environment.

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

Year 2 have been preparing, making, and eating vegetable soup today!

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

Year 6 have had two fantastic and festive visits to Berwick Grange. The children were exceptional ambassadors for the school and were extremely kind and caring with the residents.

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

So excited for our Christmas celebrations tomorrow! Christmas jumpers, Christmas lunch and a special festive Willow Treat after school!

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

CHAMPIONS! The final day of the Year 5/6 football tournament and our children won all three of their games, topping their group!

[Willow Tree Primary @WillowPrimary]

Year 1 had the most amazing trip to Corn Close Care Farm last Friday! The children met a vast array of animals including: guinea pigs, pigs, goats, a pony, sheep, hens and even a hedgehog. We also got to make and keep our very own pinecone hedgehogs!
