Administration and Welcome Area

 

Pinewood Infant School’s Administration / Welcome area is situated just inside the front entrance. We have a full time Admin Officer and a part time Admin Office. They oversee all the administration of the school, meet and greet parents and visitors to the school.

 

Drama and Music Room

The Music and Drama Room is used for various areas of the curriculum. We have a fixed Iterative Whiteboard and Projector installed that is used a great deal in both these areas.

 

Whole school weekly assemblies and sing practice also takes place in this room.

 

Pinewood in the Snow.

Here are a few images of our school in the snow. Who would believe it is April!

 

We hope the children enjoyed playing out in the snow as it was in the Spring Holidays.

 

School Grounds

Our school grounds are large, with different areas for the children to use at playtimes. Also areas for planting that the children use for different curriculum subjects. We also make our own compost to use in the planted areas.

 

As the newly built school, less than a year old we are still defining and improving several of the areas in the school grounds.

 

Speech and Language at Pinewood

 

We have a Speech and Language therapist that comes to Pinewood twice a week to give some of our children either one to one or small group therapy. One of our Learning Support Assistants also works with these children during the week.

 

The Hall

The school hall is used for many activities, like the Year 2 children in a P E session. A large P E Store cupboard houses a verity of equipment.

 

The hall can be seen in one of the photos set up for the end of term assembly which was attended by most of our children’s parents.

 

We have mobile stage lights and soon to be installed fixed stage lighting, wall mounted speakers that work from a mixing board attached to a twin C D player.

 

The schools kitchen is situated just to the side of the hall and prepares fresh and healthy cooked dinners for the children, these dinners are then eaten on special tables in the hall. Children who choose to bring a packed lunch also eat in the hall.

Year 1 Art

Year 1 has been as part of the art curriculum looking at the work of the artist L S Lowry. One of their activities was to draw in the style of Lowry, this they did in our school grounds. Here are some of the children’s pictures and some photos of them at work.

Year 2 Dinosaurs

 

Year 2’s current topic of Dinosaurs has proved very enjoyable. A huge Dinosaurs footprint was found in the school grounds (made unknowingly by the teaching staff). The children were amazed and excited to make this discovery. A great deal of follow up work was then planned around the find.
