24th April 2026
This week in our collective worship, we have spent time reflecting on the importance of kindness. It has been a powerful theme, and there has been no greater example of kindness and community coming together than what we have witnessed in our school this week.
Thank you to everyone who supported Year 4 in their bake sale at the end of the week. The children were absolutely delighted by your generosity in supporting their friend, and it was truly heart warming to see such a strong sense of care and compassion across our school community.
Building on this spirit, we are now working together as a school on a fundraiser for Birmingham Children’s Hospital. We are planning something special for Wednesday 15th July. A day that we would usually celebrate as ‘Well-being Wednesday’ will be focused on raising funds for this important cause. More information will be shared soon, but I can assure you that we already have some exciting plans in place.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support.

Library Explorers
This week, Year 2 have been immersing themselves in the world of books as part of their work on rewriting Little Red Reading Hood. The children explored the school library in a variety of exciting ways—sniffing their pages, feeling different textures, dusting off “ancient” stories and even laughing at jokes in the comedy section!
Through these activities, the children discussed what libraries are all about and why they are such special places. They then brought this inspiration into their writing, using rich description and imagination to bring books to life within their own stories. It has been wonderful to see their creativity flourish and their enthusiasm for reading and writing grow.
On Monday, our after-school football club hosted Thomas Jolyffe Primary School for a 7-a-side match. From the warm-up and team-talk to the very last kick of the game, all of the children showed wonderful team spirit and determination. Jude and Elliott both had turns in goal, making some amazing saves and the incredible defending from Harry, Liam, Noah and Jude meant it was very tough for the opposition. Edward, Kaisen, Quinn and Ollie all had attacks on goal at lightning speed throughout the match and by half time, it was 2-1 to Alveston. They boys knew at half time the game was not yet won and it would require the same level of focus and grit in the second half to secure the win. Mclaren kept up the pressure on the Holy Trinity defence with some great runs and a lovely corner. Jenson worked tirelessly in centre midfield to get back and defend some tricky shots on goal by the opposition. Superb goals from Quinn, Elliot, Kaisen and Ollie led to a 5-2 win to Alveston! It was a very exciting game to watch with lots of moments to celebrate and some very tired legs at the end of it. All of the players put in a huge amount of effort and should be very proud of their spirited performance. A big thank you to Mr Stowe for refereeing and to Miss Mabbett for organising the fixture. The boys are already looking forward to their next game…!
