A fantastic opportunity for our KS2 pupils… singing at Sandall Park on Sunday 7th December

5th October 2025Miss Blackham

We have kindly been invited to spread some Christmas cheer on Sunday 7th December at Sandall Park- 10am. It would be amazing to have as many KS2 pupils as possible to join and represent Plover 🙂

If your child is able to attend, please return the letter before the 7th November so we can arrange some time to rehearse the songs as a group.

Year 5 & 6 children will be participating in a street dance workshop as part of world mental health day- Friday 10th October

3rd October 2025Miss Blackham

On Friday 10th October, Year 5 & 6 pupils will be working with Street dance teacher Caitlin (the founder of Aftershock dance) as part of world mental health day. Being active has proven to have a positive impact on mental health which is why we have chosen to participate in dance to remind our pupils that it is important to stay active to keep a healthy mind.

Pupils are welcome to wear something yellow to acknowledge world mental health day and we are looking forward to a day full of mindfulness!

G29: What makes a great education?

Last term, students in G29 at XPG were challenged to give a keynote at the MTEM conference on what makes a great education. Over a week they drafted and put together an incredible speech which they have now recorded back in school.
