Welcome to Highfield Primary School.

As you may have seen in last week’s newsletter, our Year 6 students have been exploring the science behind floating gardens — plant-based rafts that help communities grow food in flood-prone areas. Today, Mrs Busch took four Year 6 representatives to Gledhow Primary today to take part in the Red Kite - Ogden Trust Science Fair. Attending alongside six other local schools, our children confidently presented their floating garden design, which impressively held 1.9 kilos in weight! They also had the opportunity to chat with children and staff from other schools, sharing ideas and taking part in a range of STEM challenges. It was a brilliant afternoon — well done, Highfield!

Highfield School Choir have arrived at Leeds Arena, ready for our performance tonight!

Today, 3T went on their Moortown Walk. We needed to use our map skills to help us identify where we took photographs and we kept a tally of the street furniture we saw. 

Year 6 had an enjoyable morning full of sports and teamwork. Thank you to all the supporters and participants!
