What a fabulous visit to the farm today! Children demonstrated our school values throughout and we are extremely proud of them! @ElmTreeAcademy #unity #curiosity #courage

As Scientists, we have explored melting and freezing. We used a source of heat to free the dinosaurs. We also made our own ice cubes.

Yew class have started our festivals topic celebrating Diwali. We wore different clothes, explored different pieces of jewellery and used coloured rice to make our own patterns. @ElmTreeAcademy #curious #excellence

The joy in learning to read 🥰 @ElmTreeAcademy Victoria Academies Trust MrsE_ETP

What a fabulous afternoon in Yew Class. As part of our PSHE topic, we are building relationships and learning to take turns. We've enjoyed a game of Connect 4! @ElmTreeAcademy

As mathematicians Yew class have been exploring shape, space and measure. We have been identifying a long and short object and used inlay jigsaws to fit the pieces accurately. We have continued to practise our 5 little speckled frogs song too. @ElmTreeAcademy #excellence

Yew class have ended their Diwali topic with a party! We explored samosas and onion bhaji, gave gifts, wore jewellery and made our own patterns. #excellence #curiousity @ElmTreeAcademy

Happy World Teacher Day to all the teachers who every day work tirelessly to improve the lives of those children in their care @ElmTreeAcademy Victoria Academies Trust

In RE our new celebration focus is Hanukkah. We danced to music, tried different foods and took turns to spin the dreidel. We had so much fun! #courage #unity #curiosity @ElmTreeAcademy

Some fantastic achievements to celebrate in Yew Class last week! Promoting independence by putting on our own shoes and courage for exploring and trying new foods. @ElmTreeAcademy #Courage #excellence

It’s the little things🥹 such a lovely gesture to come into. #wellbeing #appreciation

A lovely morning sharing what Maths looks like at @ElmTreeAcademy with our parents. Lots of hands on, engaging opportunities linked to our children's interests. @vicademies

Lovely interaction and shared attention at playtime today. Children loved playing football. They practised rolling, throwing and kicking. I'm so proud of Yew class! #excellence #unity @ElmTreeAcademy

It was lovely to get to meet parents tonight at parents evening. Most of our children travel to school via transport which means we don’t get to see parents face to face. It was lovely to celebrate their child and their achievements so far @ElmTreeAcademy

Half term reset🏕️ This is very much needed🪵

Yew class have taken part in a bonfire night sensory session. We danced around the bonfire, watched the fireworks, spun on the waltzers and drank hot chocolate. @ElmTreeAcademy

SCERTS training with Emily Rubin @ElmTreeAcademy today! Providing our children with the best opportunities linked to their social communication and emotional regulation.

Yew class have loved their Pudsey and Peppa party this morning for BBC Children in Need 😀 We danced, ate cake, coloured pictures and completed a Pudsey jigsaw. @ElmTreeAcademy Victoria Academies Trust
