This week, we welcomed Amanda Thornton-Jones, our Director of Primary, to Coppice Valley for her autumn visit. She was absolutely blown away by our Little Ferns Nursery provision! She commented on how beautifully the children have settled into their new routines, the pace and quality of teaching led by Miss Baxter, brilliant support from Miss Donbavand, the fantastic engagement of the children and the clear structure to each day. Most importantly, she could see just how happy our Little Ferns children are!

Another lovely week at Coppice Valley, with plenty of exciting learning taking place across school! One class have had a rather mysterious visitor this week, with something appearing to have crash-landed in our school grounds! The children quickly turned detectives, asking questions, making predictions and sharing their theories about what might have happened. What a brilliant way to spark curiosity and inspire writing! Meanwhile, other classes have been making the most of the autumn sunshine, taking their learning outdoors to explore number lines, chronology, read stories and develop art skills.

It has been another great week at Coppice Valley, with lots to celebrate! This week saw the launch of our new Young Leader groups, giving children across school even more opportunities to have a voice, take responsibility and make a positive difference to school life. We’d also love to involve our wider school community, so if you are a parent, carer or family member who has a skill, interest or a little time to offer one of our groups, we’d love to hear from you!

We have had another lovely week at Coppice Valley! We have continued practising the shared routines that help our children feel confident, settled and ready to learn. From our ‘Show Me Five’ listening routine and ‘One Mindful Minute’ to lining up after lunchtime, these familiar routines help everyone move calmly and happily through the school day as well as maximise learning time.

We have had another wonderful week at Coppice Valley! Our Year 6 children have been away on their residential and have had a fantastic time. Residential experiences are a wonderful opportunity for pupils to develop their confidence, independence and resilience. They learn to work as a team, try new things and create special memories with their friends.

Welcome back!! What a special week it has been at Coppice Valley! We began on Monday with a valuable staff INSET day focused on consistent routines across school, safeguarding and first-aid training. This helped to ensure that everyone was well prepared to provide a safe, calm and positive environment in which our children can thrive.
