• World Book Day

  Sun 10 Mar 2024

  This week, we enjoyed another fantastic World Book Day. At Minet, reading is a priority and aim to ensure that our children “learn to read” so that they can “read to learn”. However, we also believe that if children genuinely love reading, they will read more and read better, which will increase their attainment too.

   

  World Book Day has become an annual event where we can reading for pleasure. This year, the children took part in a host of book related activities, including dressing up as their favourite book character, parents/carers sharing books with their children, staff swapping classes to read books and to teach book-related lessons, virtual illustration sessions and also an author visit.
  
  Thank you all for making the day such a success!

• The Great Big Dance Off

  Tue 05 Mar 2024

  The dance group of sixteen children from Year 1 and 2 have been working hard and practicing their routine. They took part in The Great Big Dance Off at The Beck Theatre in Hayes and performed amazingly. We placed 14th out of 20 school and were the youngest competitors. A fantastic achievement for all of them, we are so proud of them for going onto stage and showing off their dancing skills.
