Amazing feedback from our favourite authors! 🤩

A few weeks ago we took our Year 1 and 2 children to see the brilliant Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷 at CheltLitFest Ruby was so inspired that she wrote this brilliant seasons poem! #readingforpleasure #readersintowriters #poetsrock

For all our Brightstorm and Vashti lovers!

Thank you to everyone who bought a book at the book fair back in March! We raised £400 to spend on books and this is just a small selection of the beautiful books going into classrooms today! @YLBookshop book fair will be back at USL in the spring ☺️📚🎉 #childrensbooks #local

We are looking to recruit play leaders (lunchtime supervisors) to support lunchtimes at school. This would be perfect for someone wanting a small number of hours work per week. Please get in touch with the school if you are interested.

We can’t wait to take our Year 4s to see this @MalvernTheatres in March! The book is a huge USL favourite and this sneak peak looks wonderful onjali rauf #theatre #childrensliterature #authorsrock 📚🎭

What an amazing way to start the new school year with the report from our June inspection now published. We know how hard our staff work to make Upton a great school and how brilliant our children are but it is lovely for some of it to come through in the report. ❤️

What a brilliant day we have had with JYB and Great Athletes ! The children loved the fitness circuit and Jemima’s message that when life knocks us down, we must get back up! A really inspirational morning - it’s not every day you have an Olympian in school 🥋
