It’s all about making potions for wishes to come true in Reception this morning. Their visit to the panto to watch Cinderella has really inspired these budding writers and they’ve spent the morning being Fairy Godmothers! ✨ 🧚 👑 @Cherrytreeclass
A great thought of the week as we enter a new year.
Our thought of the week❤️ #greatsankeyRE #greatsankeyPSHE
Some really important learning for our children when we live in a digital world.
Beech have started their new computing unit where we will be looking at real and fake news. They have created the front covers of their online booklets #greatsankeycomputing
We are proud to be a My Happy Mind school as it supports our wellbeing and mental health. 🩷 @myHappymind_
In My Happy Mind, Beech have explored which character strengths they have used this week and shared examples!
Looks like they had great fun in this computing lesson and I bet there were a few funny photographs! 📸 #greatsankeycomputing
This week in computing we have started our new learning on photography. We had to work with our friends and use an iPad to complete the picture challenge 📸
This sounds like a great way to demonstrate one of our values. Taking time to get to know our classmates and see how we are the same and celebrate our differences. ❤️ #acceptance
During our PSHE lesson, we spoke about our value of acceptance. We talked about what makes others unique and how we are all unique. Then we worked with someone we didn’t know much about and got to know them. We shared lots about ourselves. #greatsankeyPSHE
Year 10 had an inspiring morning! We were joined by Charlotte Nichols, Warrington North MP, for a fantastic talk and discussion as part of their PRIDE lessons on active citizenship. Students explored how they can make a positive difference in their communities and beyond.

🏛️📚 Year 9 students visited the Imperial War Museum, exploring 20th-century war exhibits ⚔️🕊️ and taking part in an interactive workshop on life in Nazi Germany, using real artefacts to create their own exhibition 🧳🖼️.
A powerful learning experience beyond the classroom 🤍📖
