Westgate Hill Primary Academy - May 15
Our fantastic OPAL lunchtimes are going from strength to strength this week. Not only have we had two wonderful canopies built in the Foster yard, but the children across the school are loving singing, dancing and dressing-up. We would love any more kind donations of costumes, wigs, dressing-up clothes or hats. Please bring any donations to the Foster office where we will be delighted to take them off your hands - thank you!

It has been wonderful to witness our amazing children working so hard at Westgate Hill this week. Key Stage 1 winners have been busy demonstrating hard work, great attitudes and positive relationships. Both their teachers and I have been very impressed. 1KC and 2NC have also shown excellent attendance too this week. A huge well done to all our winners this week. 👏👏🏆🏆🎉🎉
