Westgate Hill Primary Academy - Sep 11

After our first full week in school, we are so pleased to welcome all our children back. We also welcome many new children who have joined in September too. We have enjoyed a wonderful week and a half - everyone in KS1 has shown they are ready to learn with exemplary behaviour and positive attitudes. We all celebrated this today in our first celebration assembly of 2026-2027. These hard working children have been awarded much-deserved Headteacher's awards and Good to be Green awards this week. 2NC and 1KC also won the best attendance awards both with 99% attendance. Amazing!

As we approach the summer break, our children continue work hard, behave impeccably and be role models for each other. This week's Headteacher's awards and Good to be Green awards winners also included Mrs Lacey and Mrs Mallaby for their hard work and dedication too! Well done everyone.
