A chance to see talk for writing in action in one of the most wonderful schools in the country - snap this one up!

For the very 1st time in public I read a little bit of Turtle Moon to lovely audience of teachers. And very unexpectedly I welled up during my reading. Thank you teachers for 1st giving me the space & then giving me a round of applause once I’d composed myself. ❤️

Today, I made Reader Identities with my class for next year. We all loved it! Thanks, Angela Jenkins Charlotte Squirrell. #readingforpleasure

Finishing the day with another epic GOLD ⭐️School Games Mark for the brilliant Penn Wood School PE Penn Wood Primary School two years in a row! Well done to all the staff involved for the incredible amount of PESSPA opportunities you provide for all your pupils 👏🎉👏🎉

Prof Tim O'Brien Another blow for those schools serving poor areas and three hurrays for those serving more affluent areas. It’s a crass decision.

We were honoured to welcome Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi MP - Slough's MP - to Penn Wood today. Our Student Voice Reps asked important questions about education, the environment, and rising crime. Thank you, Mr Dhesi, for inspiring and encouraging hard work,community, respect, kindness&excellence.

A fabulous World Book Day was had by all at Penn Wood; books are our golden thread. We all shared a book, our oldest children read to our youngest and we made our own 'Reader Identities' because Reading for Pleasure really is at the heart of what we do.

We invited families of our Gardening Club and Eco Champions to a 'Grow With It' event at school. Families planted nasturtium seeds together and made plant labels. It was lovely to share our love of the outdoors and gardening with our families. Thank you all for coming!

A really rich day exploring text potential through Talk for Reading, then levels of sophistication in Talk for Writing with Penn Wood Primary School. Lived these examples of writing in the style of an author and rewriting from different viewpoints! Pie Corbett

Just finished I Am Raven by Alastair Chisholm from Nosy Crow and I think it's 'a better than the first in the series' kind of book. I really enjoyed the world opening up and some questions getting answered. Building to a great climax for book 3! I can't wait. Highly recommend 📚❤️

This week is OPAL launch week at Penn Wood. The children were so eager and engaged, and there was a tangible buzz in the air on day one. Z bugs, construction, bowling, weaving, chalk and train tracks yesterday - what will today bring?

Opal Week 2 in full swing. Our children are loving it and there is such a lovely buzz outside. If anyone has any trains or cars or lego, Penn Wood children and staff would be very grateful for your donations. OPAL CiC

Kindness Day was a huge community success! Lots of amazing Talk for Writing story telling with our new story areas and fairy doors. The children were kind and helpful, and we all worked together to progress our Outdoor Play and Learning (OPAL) CIC journey. #Kindnesisoursuperpower Pie Corbett Jamie Thomas

Penn Wood Primary - a film about how they teach writing - uplifting - wonder how this inspiring film matches the new Writing Framework. youtube.com/watch?v=FSGvpo…
