Today, Nurse Linzi visited Reception Class to share how doctors and nurses help people stay healthy. The children had lots of fun learning the importance of handwashing to keep germs away! 🧼✨
They got hands-on experience by cleaning ‘wounds’ (courtesy of some felt tip pens) and applying plasters like pros.
With their aprons on, they bandaged each other’s arms and legs, turning into mini medics for the day! 🩹❤️
They also explored some medical equipment, learning about thermometers, blood pressure machines, and pulse oximeters.
What a fun and educational experience for our little ones! Thank you, Nurse Linzi! 👩⚕️💉 #FutureDoctors #HealthyHabits #LearningThroughPlay

🌍✨ Exploring Our World with Mrs Redmayne ✨🌍
This half term, we’re becoming mini geographers! 🧭 We’ve been learning all about latitude and longitude, discovering how these invisible lines help us find places on Earth. 🌐
We’ve explored the Equator – the warm middle of our planet – and compared it to the icy, frozen wonder of Antarctica at the very bottom of the globe! ❄️🐧
Through maps, globes and hands-on activities, we’re finding out why some places are hot, others are cold, and what makes Antarctica such a unique place on Earth. 🌎💙

When a teacher truly knows every child - their strengths, quirks, worries and sparks of curiosity , learning becomes deeply personal ❤️🍎
It’s not about delivering a lesson to a group.
It’s about building relationships, trust and a sense of belonging that helps every child flourish.
In a smaller class:
✨ Children have the confidence to speak, to question, to try.
✨ Teachers have the space to adapt, to stretch, to nurture.
✨ Parents see not just progress, but growth - academic, emotional and social.
At Moorland, we see the magic daily - the quiet confidence that builds when a child realises their teacher has time for them.
Because in the end, education isn’t a numbers game.
It’s a human one. ❤️

🎆✨ Reception Class had a blast this afternoon during their Art lesson, creating colourful firework pictures in preparation for bonfire night! From paints to glitter, our little artists let their creativity shine.
They also took some time to discuss bonfire and firework safety, making sure everyone knows how to enjoy the festivities safely.
Remember, remember the fifth of November! 🧨🔥

🎃 Before we finish for half term on Friday, it was only fitting that we took a trip to the beautiful @ribblevalleypumpkins to pick pumpkins for our families! 🍂
The children had a wonderful morning exploring, choosing their favourites and soaking up all the autumn magic.
A big thank you to Ribble Valley Pumpkins for giving us such a fantastic morning - the perfect way to end a busy and happy first half term! 🧡

We were so lucky to have Steph from @stephs_cleaningservices visit us today as part of our ‘People Who Help Us’ topic! 🤩
Steph shared all about how she helps her clients and businesses, and how she manages her amazing team👩💼✨
The children had a super time learning how to use different cleaning tools, and we even got to clean the toys, the floor, and fold toilet paper! 🧽
It was such a fun, hands-on way to understand the value of teamwork and the importance of helping others.
A massive THANK YOU to Steph for the fantastic lesson and for showing us how every job, big or small, makes a difference! 🙌❤️

💦 Splish, splash and smiles all around!
Our Pre-School children had a wonderful time at their weekly swimming lessons Langho Swimming School with the fabulous Meghan! 🌊✨
Swimming is such an important life skill and offers so many fantastic benefits, it helps to:
🏊♀️ Build water confidence and safety awareness
💪 Strengthen muscles and coordination
🧠 Boost concentration and focus
💬 Encourage listening and following instructions
😊 Support wellbeing and self-esteem through fun and achievement
We feel so lucky to be able to offer this amazing opportunity each week, giving our children a head start in developing confidence and key physical skills for life! 💙

🌊 What an adventure by the River Ribble! 🐟💦
Our Key Stage 2 had an amazing day exploring the river, spotting wildlife, and learning all about the life cycles of mayflies and trout! 🪶🐠
There were lots of games, teamwork and hands-on fun as we discovered how rivers are full of life.
Back at school, we continued with more exciting activities to explore life cycles and migration - a fact filled day 🐠 🎣 ✨

What an incredible day at the Moorland Family Fun Afternoon! 🎉
Our school field was bursting with colour and laughter as families enjoyed a fantastic carnival-themed event, brought to life by Moorland Junior School and Moorland Junior School PTA.
From the vibrant face painting and bustling stalls to classic games like Hook a Duck and the Coconut Shy, there was fun at every turn. The inflatable helter skelter by Funtime Inflatables was a huge hit, while little ones loved the soft play and toddler bouncy castle provided by Ribble Valley Soft Play Hire.
🎶 The Ribble Valley Community Band and Phoenix Solo filled the air with music, and Adrian Catch wowed us all with his magical tricks! Families captured memories at the Photo Booth, refuelled with delicious food from Amico Mio, cooled down with ice cream, and relaxed with a drink from the bar.
💛 A massive thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make today so special — what a brilliant celebration of our school community!
