Year 2, 5 and 6 have produced some amazing artwork over the past few weeks. 

Children used watercolours, felt pens and pencil crayons to complete part of an image. 

Over the summer I was delighted to find out that our school had been successful in upgrading our School Sports Mark from ‘Bronze’ to ‘Silver.’ This is the first time that Lickey Hills has gained the ‘Silver’ mark and it really is a big achievement which is reward for the effort that our wonderful children and staff put into our sport last year. We went to more tournaments, ran more lunchtime clubs and even started the ‘Daily Mile’ initiative in Key Stage 2 which secured us this upgrade. We are looking forward to carrying on in this spirit this year and hopefully push for Gold! Thank you to Mr Brewer for his ongoing commitment and enthusiasm for our sporting success.

A final word from our Head Boy and Head Girl

Evie – I have really enjoyed my time here at Lickey. It’s been so much fun and a privilege to be head girl. I am really proud of our school and the children in it and I will miss them all so much.

Will – It’s been an honour to go to Lickey Hills Primary School and to be voted in as Head Boy. The staff here have been great and have helped me to Dream, Believe and Achieve. I am excited for the future and feel well prepared for sec-ondary school.
Thank you Lickey!

Congratulations to Mrs Crompton and Erin (Y4) for their awards last night at the Generation I can award ceremony held at Worcester Arena. 

The Generation CAN Awards are local awards to celebrate the remarkable achievements of children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities and the adults who support them.

1KG were very excited last week when members of The Cofton Village Hall Trust and Chris Newsome, Development Director at St. Modwen came into school to put our pictures of the local area into their time capsule. The capsule was later buried near to the new village hall. 

We also welcomed the Home Secretary, Mr. Sajid Javid, MP, today.  He commented on the children’s excellent questions including: who inspires you? How did you feel when you found out you had the job of Home Secretary? Are we safe as young people with knife crime today ? Would you ever build a wall like Donald Trump? He shared some interesting facts about his role as Home Secretary, working with the Prime Minister and the Queen.  Mr Javid was greeted by our Headboy Will, and Headgirl Evie,  who were really excited to meet him.  Year 6 were pleased he was able to give us a small amount of his time during this busy time in parliament and they look forward to finding out more about democracy next week.
