🌺 Remembrance Day 2026 🌺
Today at 11am, the children and staff of St James’ fell silent to remember all those who served and gave their lives.
A special thank you to Isabella, Evie, Hayden, and Annabelle for their beautiful rendition of the Last Post, led by our amazing music teacher, Mr Rigg from Wardle Academy
On Sunday, our school was proud to be part of the Remembrance Day Parade in Wardle Village. It was wonderful to see so many of our children in attendance alongside their local Scouts and Brownies groups. A big thank you to Max and Amelia for giving up their time to represent St James’ so wonderfully. We are so proud of you all!
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them ❤️

KS1 have started our Autumn 2 term by blasting off into learning! We have embarked on an exciting Space topic, starting with the incredible journey of Neil Armstrong and the delightful story "Whatever Next" by Jill Murphy. 📚
The students got creative by writing lists of items they would take to the moon and even answered questions in the voice of Baby Bear! They created their own moon using tinfoil and then acted out Neil Armstrong's first step using his iconic words 'That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.' What an amazing start to our topic.
