Our Foundation children received a visit from Bob the Badger this week! Bob is the main mascot from the Big Brush Club and he was very impressed with how well we are now brushing our teeth in school. He gave us high fives, cuddles and even showed off his dance moves to our tooth brushing song! Well done EYFS! 🦷🪥🌟

Thank you for your support with World Book Day today! We’ve had a fabulous day and the costumes worn by the children were just brilliant! Very creative! Thank you to Mrs Jones who has organised a few events over the next week to celebrate our love of reading! ⭐️📚⭐️📚⭐️📚 Here is a little snippet from some of the staff! The PTFA book swap at the start and end of the day was a huge success too! Thank you!

Noses are limited and Mrs Pomeroy will be selling them from tomorrow from her classroom so teachers will organise a time for your child to visit Brentor Class.

There is still time to see our incredible art exhibition at Devonport Market Hall. Pop down and see how impressive the children’s work is!!!!

You’re Invited: Widey Court Children’s Art Exhibition We are delighted to invite our school community to come and celebrate the creativity of our children at the upcoming Widey Court Art Exhibition. We are proud to share that Widey Court is the first school to be invited to exhibit children’s artwork at Devonport Market Hall - a wonderful recognition of the creativity and talent within our school. From colourful paintings to imaginative designs, the exhibition showcases a wide range of artwork created by our young artists. The exhibition will be open from 14th – 21st February, and we would love families and community members to come along, take a look, and support our children. Opening times are: Monday - Friday, 8.30 - 3.30 Saturday, 9.30 - 4.00 Sunday, 9.30 - 2.00 There is no charge to come and see the exhibitions, but you could pair a visit with a dome screening over half term! (https://www.realideas.org/whats-on) Please join us in celebrating this exciting milestone and the fantastic work of our children—we look forward to seeing you there! 🎨✨ Thank you Mrs Monk for leading and organising this exhibition! We know you are one very proud Art Lead and we are so impressed with the art work that each year group has produced over the past few months as part of our superbly planned art curriculum. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
