We welcomed our newest members to our Westfield Family this week to Willow Class, our new Reception children.

The children have been absolute superstars and we are so proud of each and every one of them for settling into school life.

We have enjoyed exploring our new classroom and outdoor area and making new friends.

It has been lovely getting to know the children and their families. We are looking forward to having lots of fun and making lots of memories together.

What a team we are becoming already in Cherry Class! The children have formed great friendships with each other in our mixed Y1 and Y2 class and I can’t wait to see what we can achieve together this academic year 🏆

We have hit the ground running with lots of learning mixed in with opportunities to play and enjoy the last of the summer weather ☀️ We started our new book ‘Meesha Makes Friends’ 📖 We made friendship paper chains and wrote about what good qualities we posses as friends. Y1 started their daily maths lessons with Miss Pope this week and they were very excited. In science, we have been learning about the different animal groups (mammals, birds, reptiles, fish and amphibians) and comparing their features. Our trip to the fire station community garden was a success as always. This time the children harvested onions, beetroot, tomatoes and chillis 🧅 🍅 🌶 🪴

Cedar Class have settled in so well to our new school year!

Our older pupils have been fabulous role models for our three new children and we've been enjoying our time together.

As well as our new pupils, we have welcomed a new member of staff - Mrs Furey so say hello next time you see her.

We've been lucky with the weather this week so having lots of sensory play with new sand and water equipment as well as establishing our routines.

What a great start to the year!

Thank you for your help.

We have had a great start to the new year in Larch Class. We have spent time getting to know each other and starting our new learning.

In English, we have been using some wonderful adjectives to describe pictures from our new book with expanded noun phrases. We have been predicting what will happen in the book and we are excited to see who was correct.

In Maths, we have been adding 3 numbers and understanding that addition is commutative. We have had counters and 10 frames to help us.

In the afternoons, we have been learning about rocks in Science. We have had fun testing the rocks and deciding which should be used for different things.

Also, in PE we have enjoyed both the gymnastics and badminton lessons. In gymnastics, we did our best front rolls and in badminton, we used rackets to block shuttlecocks to score a point.

A wonderful first week and a bit back! Oak class have thrown themselves into their learning straight away-we have been reading our book 'Star of Fear Star of Hope' which tells the story of 2 children separated by the Nazi occupation of France-a hard hitting book about an important part of world history. We have been learning about expanded noun phrases and how to write building up suspense!

Our science is in full flow, learning about all the various life cycles-plant, mammal, bird, amphibian and insect-and understanding how they are different, yet similar to each other.

In maths we have been learning about tenths, or 1/10 and 0.1 and how to count in them, identify them and draw them. A key foundation for our future learning.

Finally, our swimming started with a successful first lesson-I can't wait until our next one!

We have had a lovely start to the academic year in Sycamore Class!

Firstly, we have welcomed some new pupils into our class which has meant that we had some new friends to play with. Since returning to school, we have spent time establishing and embedding our school routines. Everyone is doing a great job demonstrating our school values.

The children have really enjoyed exploring the new games and equipment that we have recently purchased. There has been lots of opportunities for vocabulary and language development through playing with these items and we are really pleased with how everyone has been using them.

Your Child’s Flu Immunisation – Action Required

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Parent/Carer,

Welcome back to the new school term! We hope you had a lovely summer break.

Your child is due their flu immunisation this term. To help us prepare, please complete your child’s consent form via this link https://econsent.merseycare.nhs.uk/ by Friday 19th September 2025 You can choose either the nasal spray (recommended for best protection) or the injectable flu vaccine if required. If you don’t want your child to receive their flu vaccine please complete their form with a NO to avoid receiving further follow up calls and text.

Please note: Late forms may mean your child is unable to receive their flu immunisation at the first school session.

Remember: Flu can be a very unpleasant illness and can sometimes cause serious complications. Vaccinating your child helps protect them and also reduces the spread of flu to more vulnerable family members, friends, and the wider community.

If you need support completing the form or have any questions, please contact your local School Aged Immunisation Team:

Knowsley, Halton & St Helens Schools

0151 351 8805

Thank you for your support in helping us keep children and families healthy this winter.

Kind regards,

School-Aged Immunisation Service
