β Did you know Babington House School has its very own coffee shop?!
Well, almost! Our Reception children were delighted to discover a special Babington coffee shop had appeared in their classroom. They have loved getting into role, writing their own menus, taking orders and serving up a delicious selection of drinks and snacks.
A wonderful way to bring imaginative play to life while developing early writing, communication and social skills. We wonder what will be on the menu next! β

Watch Out! Thereβs a Wolf on the Loose!
There has been some howling excitement in Year 2 this week! The children have been thoroughly enjoying our class story, Wolves by Emily Gravett and have loved discovering fascinating facts about these mysterious, furry creatures.
However, things took an unexpected turn when the children were shown a rather surprising picture and told that a wolf had been spotted roaming the grounds of Babington House School!
This shocking news sparked lots of excitement and inspired some fantastic creative writing! The children put their descriptive skills to the test, using expanded noun phrases to describe the wolf in wonderful detail. They then became official wolf-watchers, designing eye-catching WARNING posters to alert staff and fellow pupils to the possible danger lurking around the school!
We certainly have some budding authors in Year 2, but the big question remains⦠where will the wolf be spotted next?

We loved welcoming our nursery families into school recently for a special phonics workshop!
It was a wonderful opportunity to share how we introduce early phonics and help our youngest learners begin their journey towards reading and writing.
Phonics plays a vital role in developing early literacy skills, helping children to recognise letter sounds, blend sounds together to read words and begin to build confidence as young readers.
Thank you to all our families who joined us.

Our lunchtime has certainly been warmed up on this chilly day with the vibrant flavours and spices of the Caribbean!
Todayβs theme day took our pupils on a delicious journey through the islands, with a mouth-watering spread of jerk chicken, rice and peas, and hash stacks.
There were plenty of flavours to explore, new tastes to enjoy and a little Caribbean sunshine brought to the lunch hall!
Thank you to our wonderful catering team for another delicious lunch π
