It was lovely to welcome all of our new Kindergarten families. The children had an exciting time in their classrooms and getting a real taste of “big school”.
The transition from preschool to primary school is a major step for young families and it is always exciting for us to see the next group of children arriving at school, ready to embark on the next phase of their little lives.
It can be scary getting used to all the new routines and the fact that they have to share the teachers time with so many other children.
It can also be an anxious time for many parents as they see their child come under the influence of another significant adult perhaps for the first time in their short lives.
It is important to remember that this is all part of growing up and at St Bernadette’s we make this challenging time as easy as possible.

Today, Year 2 enjoyed a wonderful butterfly incursion as part of our learning about butterfly life cycles and all things butterflies. 🐛➡️🦋 The children had the special opportunity to hold sunflowers while the butterflies landed on their flowers, allowing them to see these beautiful creatures up close! It was a truly magical experience and the children were absolutely fluttering with excitement! 🌻🦋

Our schools are cracking the reading code
Do you remember how you learned to read? For a vital skill that is linked to all other learning, it’s surprisingly difficult to explain how to go about learning it.
