Temple MeadowPrimary School

🌾 Thank You, Temple Meadow Families! 🌾 We are incredibly proud of the generosity shown by our school community during this year's Harvest collection. Thanks to your amazing support, we donated 130kg of food and 3.2kg of toiletries to Black Country Food Bank. This fantastic contribution is enough to help provide 260 meals and 3 toiletry packs for people in need within our local community. Your kindness and willingness to support others truly reflects our school values and shows how much can be achieved when we work together. Every donation will help make a real difference to families facing difficult circumstances.

Today we're singing Doctor Foster Went to Gloucester! 🎵 Why not practise this rhyme together at home? 🌧 Can your child remember what happened to Doctor Foster? 👣 Can they act out walking through the rain and jumping in the puddle? 🗣 Can they join in with the words and actions? Singing nursery rhymes is a fun way to develop your child's language, listening and memory skills! 🎧 Listen here: https://push.fm/fl/doctor-foster-went-to-gloucester Have fun singing together! 🥰🎶

🍂 Returning to Temple Meadow! 🍂 We are pleased to welcome back the Sandwell Best Start Family Hub Mobile Spoke to Temple Meadow Primary School tomorrow!

💛🏃 Run Pudsey Challenge Halfway Update! 🏃💛 We are now halfway through our Run Pudsey Challenge, and what an incredible effort it has been from our Temple Meadow pupils! So far, our children have walked an amazing 1,410 miles and, thanks to the generosity of our families and wider community, we have raised £794.30 for Children in Need. We are extremely grateful for every donation received so far. As we enter the second half of the challenge, we have one big goal in mind... can we reach £1,000? 🎯 The impact of reaching this milestone would be incredible. Every £1,000 a school fundraises could pay for a week-long residential experience for 10 disabled children, enabling them to explore outdoor activities, build confidence and access opportunities that many of us take for granted. We are less than £206 away from our target, and every donation, no matter how small, will help us get there. If you haven't already set up your child's fundraising page, there's still time to get involved. 1,410 miles completed £794.30 raised 🎯 Just £205.70 to go until we reach £1,000 Let's finish the challenge as strongly as we've started it and see just how much our amazing Temple Meadow community can raise for this fantastic cause.

On Remembrance Sunday, we join people across the country in observing a two-minute silence to honour the bravery, service and sacrifice of those who have served and continue to serve our nation. As families take time to reflect today, you may be interested in exploring A Street Near You, a website that shares the stories of local people who lost their lives during the First World War. It is particularly moving to discover that several names are linked to streets close to our school, including Wrights Lane and Clifton Street, helping bring the history of our local community to life. This fascinating resource offers an opportunity to learn more about the sacrifices made by previous generations and to remember those who gave so much. 🔗 Explore here: https://astreetnearyou.org/#lat=10&lon=0&zoom=2 Lest we forget.
