Welcome to Wilstead Primary School, we hope you enjoy looking through our website and welcome any feedback you have. The Website will have content added regularly over the coming weeks so keep checking back.
This Curriculum Map shows what we will be learning this year in our Foundation Subjects. For more information on Maths and English, please see the 'Curriculum' page on the website.
During the last week of term, year 4 children took part in a inter school sports event at KCA. It was a morning of fitness, mental stimulation and lots of fun. All the children tried hard, worked as a team and supported one another. Indeed, teachers from other schools commented on our children's behaviour and compassion for others. It was great to see the excitement of the tigers on going on a bus and taking part in competitons with different school. I was very proud of them all.

Tommy's Sinclair C5
On Friday 15th October, we were lucky to have a visit from Tommy's Sinclair C5! Tommy and his dad lovingly restored the vehicle over lockdown, and wanted to show it off to Year 4. We learned lots from Tommy's presentation and were fascinated by the demonstration of how it worked.
Meet the Teacher Presentation
Here is a copy of the presentation I did for the teacher meet and greet. I hope it all makes sense, but if not then please come and talk to me. New spellings are going out today, any problems again let me know.
I have enquired about a residential trip for our year 4s which will be in Summer term. I will get all the information together (cost, dates, etc) and then send a letter out. It is a long way off but the sooner details and prices are known the better I think.
I also wanted to say that every child has come back to school with a fantastic attitude and have made this first week brilliant to teach. I'm excited about the year ahead, and what good work we will do and fun we will have.
Sports Day
We all had a fantastic time engaging in our Sports Day activities!
Many thanks to Asan Tu for the wonderful photography.

Accelerated Reader
We don’t usually encourage quizzing at home as it can affect test validity, which can result in inconsistent or unrepresentative reading ages. However, due to these exceptional circumstances, you may wish to consider allowing students to quiz at home for a limited period.
