Be sure to download the app and enable notifications so you don't miss any important updates. Thank you for supporting this move to a simpler, more connected experience for all Temple Meadow families.

We are absolutely thrilled to be welcoming a full cohort of 60 children into Reception this September! We also have one or two spaces available in Years 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 for next academic year. If you know any families who would love to be part of our warm, welcoming, and ambitious school community, please do encourage them to get in touch, we'd be delighted to show them what makes Temple Meadow such a special place to learn and grow.

Healthy Eating Week – Coming Soon! We're excited to share that our Pupil Parliament has been busy planning a Healthy Eating Focus Week for children in Years 1–6, starting Monday 16th June! The week will kick off with a special assembly and include a Healthy Snack Challenge where each healthy break-time snack earns points for the class! The class with the most points wins a certificate and a fun prize! Please support us by encouraging your child to bring in a healthy snack each day – together, we can help our children build lifelong healthy habits!

Exciting News! From tomorrow, children will be able to scoot to school and park their scooters safely in our brand new scooter rack! We have 36 spaces available on a first come first served basis. The racks are located on the KS1 playground. A weatherproof cover will be added soon to help protect scooters and bikes from the elements. We're thrilled to support healthy and active travel to school while also helping reduce congestion at drop-off and pick-up times! Please remember: while we'll do our best to discourage unauthorised access, the school cannot accept responsibility for personal items left on site.

Can you help us brighten up our Early Years space? School budgets are tight, but we're always looking for ways to improve our environment for the benefit of our children and we have a lovely new project in mind! We're hoping to transform one of the walls in our Early Years outdoor area with chalkboard paint, creating a fun and imaginative role play space where children can draw, write, and express themselves freely during playtime. If you could spare a few hours to help us paint and bring this vision to life, we'd be so grateful! Please contact the School Office to let us know you're interested and we'll coordinate a time for everyone to come together and get creative. Every bit of help makes a big difference
