Physical Skills in Early Years

Early Learners have been practising their physical skills when playing outside while exploring some new play areas within school. Pupils have been to use the big slides, as well as building houses together with the Podley, riding bikes, using the swings and digging in the mud! What fun they’ve have had learning lots of new skills.

‘Access to Success’ Session

🌟 Exciting day at Rowan Tree Primary School as the Atherton and Tyldesley Sports Association brought together six different schools for an amazing yoga and dance workshops to our school.

Led by Vicky and Jaydan, pupils had a blast exploring the world of movement and relaxation.

Forest School with Meadowbank

Every Thursday, some of our children from the Engagement classes, have had the chance to join some their peers at Meadowbank Primary School for forest school sessions. The children have had lots of fun getting to know each other in the outdoors, playing and exploring. It’s been really beneficial for all of the children and they have really enjoyed it.

Sing and Sign Choir 2023 Election

We are thrilled to announce that the Sing and Sign Choir is back for another fantastic year of music and signing!  Gather your voices and prepare those signing hands, because it’s time to choose the songs we’ll be learning together.

As always, we want this choir to be a fun and inclusive experience for all of our talented students. That’s why we’re putting the power in their hands by holding a vote!  Each member has been able to not only suggest songs but then vote for our favourite.

Stay tuned for more updates on our voting process and rehearsals. We can’t wait to see which songs will make it to our repertoire this year!

Willow 2 Remembrance

Willow have been learning about remembrance day. They read a powerpoint all about it and then decided to make a poster. The children explored colour mixing when completing the background of their pictures and then some children printed poppies on their work whilst others sketched silhouettes of a soldier and across, they cut them out and stuck them onto their pictures. Finally they wrote the words Lest We Forget . Well done Willow 2 fantastic work.

Maple 2 explore the Library

Maple have had out first library slot of the year at Atherton Library. Pupils took time to explore all the books and learnt to look after them. They loved listening to different stories. It was great to say hello to the library staff as well. They can’t wait to go again!

Bonfire Night in Pine 2

Pine 2 have been learning all about the history of Guy Fawkes. We learnt why and how people celebrate bonfire night. We learnt about the safety aspects and practiced this outside the classroom by toasting marshmallows. We enjoyed creating colourful, sparkly firework pictures in art.
