Year 5 pupils have recently taken part in Level 2 Bikeability training where they have developed their confidence in handling a bike. They took to the roads around Leighton and learnt how to safely cycle on the roads, practising manoeuvres such as signalling, breaking and turning.

Reception Poppy activity for Remembrance day. The idea is to add the correct number of pegs to the numbered poppy. We have also been finger painting our own poppies in our outside classroom.
Dear Families
Unfortunately, the situation with the water has not been resolved. This means that Leighton Primary School will be closed tomorrow (Thursday 10th November 2022). School staff will upload learning on the school website. We will keep you updated with the situation. Thank you for your support and patience at this time. The school team will contact you via email to find out if families with children eligible for free school meals would like to come to school to collect a packed lunch tomorrow.

In our Reception classes we have been learning about the Hindu festival 'Diwali'.
We have learnt lots of facts about Diwali and taken part in many activities. This included trying some Diwali sweets , dressing up and exploring Rangoli patterns with rice.
'Diwali' is the Festival of light. Hindus celebrate Diwali by cleaning their homes, adding lots of lights and Diya lamps . They welcome family and friends with Rangoli pattern at their homes.
