• Goodbye to our Literacy Volunteer

  Tue 22 Jul 2025

  In our lower KS2 Merit assembly, we celebrated our wonderful Literacy Volunteer, Ann, who has worked at Southglade for 7 years. She has worked with lots of children on their reading and has always encouraged children to have a love for reading. We all wish her a very happy retirement. Thank you Ann for all your commitment and hard work at Southglade.

• Year 5 Skills Academy Visit

  Wed 09 Jul 2025 Mrs Rowlett

  Today a small group of year 5 pupils went on a unique trip to the Skills Academy in Carlton. They had the opportunity to try bricklaying and also practised their plastering skills. It was a lot harder than it looked!

  We also found out about what the Skills Academy do from day to day and we had a look around their workshops. The Skills Academy help people to retrain and get back into employment by teaching them new skills. We really enjoyed this experience and it safe to say the children put in a good morning of 'graft'. 

  Thank you to B&K who organised this trip- we have some budding construction workers at Southglade!

  All of the children represented our school fantastically and their behaviour was exemplary.
