Tow Law Millennium Primary School took part in UK Parliament week. The children enjoyed learning about the Houses of Parliament, our Prime Minister Theresa May and taking part in democratic voting.
They thoroughly enjoyed using the publications from the Parliament Education Service.
Tow Law Millennium’s year 5 pupils have taken part in the first of a 3 day Multi-skills programme, running throughout the year, at Parkside Academy.
The children enjoyed trampolining and fun challenges on the rock climbing wall. They also showed off their debating, reasoning and team working skills when they were challenged to come up with a plan to survive on a deserted island.
A carousel of science activities allowed the children hands on experience of carrying out experiments – finding out how to survey habitats, investigating the periodic table and how fireworks get their colours as well as producing a rainbow filled test tube of colours by mixing liquids with different densities.
The children had a fantastic time and were most impressed by the young leaders, Cain and Niamh, who looked after them throughout the day. Several children were awarded certificates and will be invited to join Parkside academy’s award ceremony. All are eagerly looking forward to their next visit.

Every school day counts and, with this in mind, we have recently reviewed our Attendance Policy.
Every single day a child is absent from school equates to a day of lost learning.
On Wednesday 1st November, our whole school enjoyed a fantastic pantomime of the fairytale ‘Cinderella’. The children laughed, sang and joined in throughout the performance and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Children received behaviour certificates for outstanding behaviour across the half term. Swimming certificates were also handed out to pupils who had achieved their swimming award.
Well done for your achievements!
On Tuesday 3rd October we were inspected by Ofsted and I am very pleased to announce that we retained our grading of a good school.
All of our pupils work extremely hard and the staff are dedicated and committed to providing the highest standards for our children.
I hope you enjoy reading the letter I received from Claire Brown, Her Majesty’s Inspector, and I wish to say thank you to all the parents for their supportive comments.

What a fantastic Harvest Festival celebration day!
On Friday 13th October, our pupils took part in many different harvest activities throughout the school day. Parents and carers were invited to join their children for a special harvest lunch. Then parents joined their children in their classes to take part in Harvest craft activities. Finally we all walked to St Philip and St James’ church for our Harvest service.

Children from Class 2 attended the Year 3/4 Tag Rugby Festival at Parkside Academy on Thursday 19th October. They were put into two teams and played games against other schools in two sets. The children had lots of fun learning the rules and playing the games. Both teams played really well scoring touchdowns.
