It's been a very busy time since we arrived back after the festive break but so productive too.
We are now constructing the Computing and Geography curriculums, exploring progression in French and creating Science learning mats for assessment. We are continuing to develop our alternative learning room using expert teachers and next we will be expanding the sensory room to be a 'reading for pleasure' room too. Over the past few weeks we have been actively listening to parents, carers, children and local community views to help us continue to make our school a better and safer place for all. It was wonderful to see so many parents and carers joining us for our winter wonderland picnic. It was good to have fun and eat delicious food together. Working together and actively listening to each other is the way we will give our children the very best. It's their entitlement.
Memory of the week: The children dancing in the snow... forever in my heart.

I have spent the last few weeks with members of the teachinf staff looking at the building of the school curriculum.
It has been fascinating to understand more about the approach and how the team are focused on getting depth of learning for our children. Also it is good to see the plans on the website for all to see.
Springbank Primary is a place where all of our children and staff will have the opportunity to excel.
Everyone will be safe, happy and cared for.
Our curriculum and values will inspire everyone in the school family to be motivated and curious learners and offer core skills, knowledge and enrichment to enable all to gain the foundations for a quality future and a love for life-long learning.
To the right is our STARFISH which are our values for our school.
We are a school that is committed to providing a high standard of education for every pupil. We pursue excellence at every opportunity.
Springbank Primary is a place where ALL of our children, staff and school community will be safe, happy and cared for. Our curriculum offers skills and enrichment so that EVERY child is able to gain the foundations for a quality future life and a love for life long learning.
Our motto "Caring, Happy, Healthy, Sporty, Scientific" sets out our mission for the school. We see ourselves at the heart of the local community, in a partnership with parents and carers, offering excellence in education and helping the children to learn the core learning skills they will need for their future.
This extends beyond the school day to include a number of extra-curricular activities before and after school. We believe learning isn't restricted to the classroom and that every child who comes to Springbank Primary School has an entitlement to a range of visits and experiences that enrich and enliven the curriculum. Outdoor learning, creative arts and being eco-friendly all form part of our teaching and learning programme.
Inviting visitors into school brings our children's learning to life. We are all learners in school and staff continue to learn too, finding out about the latest developments in education, theory and practice, keeping their skills and knowledge up to date or developing their own potential through degree or master's degree courses.
