  • Smith's Wood Hit the Bullseye!

    Published 13/01/23

    Last night, The King Power Stadium was transformed into Smith's Wood's own archery range. Our young Robin Hoods loosed arrow after arrow, hitting targets in every direction. Archery skills and sportsmanship were on display in abundance with our junior archers showing fantastic levels of both determination and friendship. Spider house managed to snatch a narrow victory from the tough competition, well done to Spider house and everyone involved.

  • Nothing Rotten about these Romans!

    Published 10/01/23

    Year 3 had a fantastic day on Friday experiencing life as a Roman.. We became immersed in our new topic - 'Hail Caesar' and learnt Roman numerals, wrote in Latin and learnt about Roman clothing for boys and girls. We also looked at some amazing Roman pottery and had a go at creating our own pottery using clay!

  • Staying Safe with the Dog, Duck and Cat Trust

    Published 05/01/23

    Please find below a link to the Dog, Duck and Cat Trust:

    https://www.dogduckandcat.co.uk/parent-carer-guardian

    The Dog, Duck and Cat Trust want to help you teach your child, or the children you work with, about some of the things in their world that could potentially cause them some bother. Children have accidents, that’s just a fact of life, but if we can cut down their opportunities to hurt themselves then we can help keep them out of emergency departments, or worse!

    We also want to help them to develop their core skills, skills that will be needed by them today and for the rest of their lives. We want them to understand what good friendships and relationships are, to know how they can help themselves, and, know when they should seek help from a trusted adult.

  • Walking in a Winter Wonderland

    Published 16/12/22

    The children had a fantastic time at The National Forest Adventure Farm. They travelled through the North Pole Portal, met a talking polar bear, sorted presents with the elves, met Father Christmas and chose a present from Santa's workshop. The children enjoyed the tractor ride around the farm where they spotted all the snowmen. They then looked at different animals and their habitats.

  • Smith's Wood Choir Hit the High Notes!

    Published 15/12/22

    The Year 4, 5 and 6 Choir have been getting into the Christmas spirit! Over the last half term, they have been working really hard on a collection of Christmas songs to perform. Last week, they had the chance to perform the songs to all their families. They all sang so beautifully and the performance was enjoyed by all.  

    Some of the choir also got the opportunity to go to ASDA to perform their songs to the public! Wearing their festive headgear, they produced another amazing performance to all the ASDA customers and their families who also came to support. We had so many comments about how lovely their singing was – ASDA would love them to come again! 

    Well Done to everyone who was involved in these performances! Merry Christmas!
