Many thanks to all of our Year 6 pupils for their marvellous tours of the school during our open evening last night. We are very proud of you!
Month: October 2017
Mighty Metal Music
Year 3 had a superb music workshop today, themed around their mighty metals topic. Many thanks to Mrs Murray for leading the session.
Maths displays
Our maths displays have been updated to reflect the ‘Maths No Problem’ scheme being followed within lessons. There is a lot of emphasis on accurate use of mathematical vocabulary and of reasoning skills within maths, for example being able to show answers in several different ways.
Year 2 Open Evening
Tomorrow night, Wednesday 18th October, from 6-7pm, our school will be open for any parents / carers of pupils currently in Year 2. There will be a brief talk about life at QPA followed by the opportunity to view classrooms and other facilities.
Christmas card competition
QPA have been invited to take part in a Christmas card competition set by Mosiac (the recent charity we supported). Your child will have a sock template if they would like to take part and we would like all entries to be in school by 9am on Tuesday 17th October so we can send them off on Wednesday. On the back of the entry, please include your name, age and school.
We look forward to seeing all of your brilliant entires.

Sports Ambassadors
Today our Year 5s attended the Bournemouth Primary Leadership Academy event held at Harewood College. This was a fantastic event that the children thoroughly enjoyed. The day involved lots of team games, workshops on what makes a good leader and also ways to improve sport at QPA. The children will now act as Sports Ambassadors for Queen’s Park Academy. This will involve coming up with new ideas and initiatives to encourage more children to participate in more physical activity.
School council
Our new school council representatives have now been elected. Their weekly meetings are underway and they have some exciting plans for the school already!
