The first full week of Term 1 was a huge success, and all the staff have been incredibly impressed with the pupils across the school. From our youngest children in nursery and reception to our eldest children in Year 6, they’ve all been amazing. We are so proud of them all! 🌟 This week, PE started, and everyone got active. We are incredibly lucky to have expert teaching from Wayne & Michala at Active Primary Sports and trained dance teachers Beth & Naomi from Funk Fusion Fitness. This gives our pupils excellent sporting skills and opportunities. 🏃🏽♂️ 💃🏻 🤸🏼♂️ 🕺🏻 We’ve also installed some new equipment for our younger pupils to develop and challenge their gross-motor skills. It was wonderful to see them using it when the weather allowed us to get outside. In our ‘Be Your Best’ assembly on Friday, class teachers always highlight children who have been excellent examples of our school CARE values: Co-operation, Achievement, Respect, and Empathy. We awarded some beautiful values certificates for those children to take home as a reminder of how proud we are of them. Well done to all those children who received certificates this week! There was plenty of ‘spin the wheel’ in assembly as classes were awarded treats for best attendance and tidiest classrooms. The golden broom award is always a favourite in Friday’s assembly, and the louder cheer when it’s received is always impressive. 🧹 🌟 Well done to Penguin Class and Shark Class for winning the golden broom awards, and to Turtle Class and Shark Class, again, for the highest attendance 🙌🏼 It’s been a truly fabulous first full week! Well done everyone! 💙

The start of a new school year is always exciting as we settle in to our new learning environments and welcome new experiences 🤩 It’s been a delight to see the children back in school, adjusting to their new routines beautifully. We’ve had a wonderful first two days and have welcomed lots of new pupils and their families 👋🏼 I spoke to the children about having high expectations of themselves and using the amazing opportunities and experiences they are given, to enrich their lives. Let’s hope every child at OVPA reaches for the stars and fulfils their ambitions 💫 ♥️ With the right mindset, they really can do anything they want to! 🌟🙌🏼 Have a lovely weekend everyone and we look forward to seeing you on Monday for a full week. The OVPA Team 💙

💙 The Penultimate Week of the Year 💙 Our penultimate week was full of celebration 🎉 🙌🏼 🥳 Year 1 held a celebration of the wonderful reading they have been doing with their 1:1 tutors from Chapter One 📕 👏🏻 Dolphin Class in Y3/4 gave a wonderful Ukuele performance to their parents and carers along with our guitarists who are all taught by Nick Webb, our fab Music Teacher. It was amazing to see all our talented pupils playing so beautifully 🎵 🎸 Year 5 were involved in an art workshop led by a local artist, exploring portraiture techniques. They proudly shared their future life goals in their final ‘Aspirations & Careers’ session with the Education Futures Trust. They also had an insightful cybersecurity talk from Bradley’s Dad to think about careers in technology 🎨 💻 Our super Year 6 cohort smashed their SATs scores, achieving ABOVE the National Average and showing that all their hard work has paid off. We are incredibly proud of them! 🌟 To celebrate, their photograph is in the Hastings Observer this week and they look just fabulous! We had 6 past pupils from Hastings Academy completing Y10 work experience this week and they were ALL amazing. It was so wonderful to have them back and see how far they’ve come since leaving primary 🔥 There have been lots of class treats celebrating all the pupils’ hard work 🙌🏼 Last week of term pending… ☀️ Summer picnic ☠️ Year 6 performance of Pirates of the Curry Bean 🏴☠️ Pirate Treat Day on Thursday 👋🏼 Y6 leavers’ party and assembly 💙 Our wonderful OVPA balloon arch to send our leavers on their way with the very best of luck 🤞🏻 Get those tissues ready 🥹 ♥️

The reading gap Approx one in four pupils move to secondary school without having met the expected standard in the key stage 2 national reading test. This holds many of them back in secondary school, both in their English lessons and more widely across the curriculum. /1— Mary Myatt (@MaryMyatt) August 5, 2025

Great start to the year, with our local schools, for our Alliance Inset day at Bannatynes. @ModernCassie got us thinking about aligning our roles to champion SEND success & adaptive teaching. We shared successful practice & strategies, to expand our toolkit. A very positive day!— Ore Village Primary Academy (@orevpa) Jan 6, 2025
