Over the past week, we have celebrated the start of the educational journey for our youngest pupils, our new starters in the Foundation Stage.
Starting a conversation
Starting school is a massive milestone, and the PSA wanted to recognise this.
As parents we understand how difficult some children find it to remember details about school life, so last week we handed out some bingo cards for the children to complete at home.


The idea was to provide some conversation starters to encourage the children to remember their school day and enjoy talking about it at home so they could tick off their task.
Time to celebrate
Yesterday the Foundation Stage pupils had a special visitor come to the school to help us really get the party started…Captain Fantastic!
Over the one hour party the children experienced magic, bubbles, dancing and lots of laughter. The smiles on their faces filled us with so much pride in being able to organise and run this event for them!
And even better to get some feedback from the children themselves:
Hollie said, “It was brilliant, can I go there again!?”
Leyton shared “Captain Fantastic was the best because he was a bit silly!”
The PSA Team were so impressed with the behaviour of all of the FS children. Seeing their faces light up when Captain Fantastic performed was so heart-warming.
We’re so glad we were able to give them such a special welcome to our school.








The event then wrapped up with a little drink and snack before our super FS pupils made their way back to their classrooms where they discovered their very own little party bags donated by PSA member Suzanne.
We couldn’t do this alone
Without the amazing support of Clean Wizards UK LTD we wouldn’t have been able to run this event.

It was the perfect way to welcome our Foundation Stage pupils to Parkwood Primary School.
