Dear Parents
As we approach the final fortnight of this remarkable academic year, I find myself reflecting upon the annual journey we have undertaken together as a school community. The passage of time has been both swift and profound, carrying with it moments of discovery, creativity, and celebration that have truly defined our collective experience at Phoenix Infant Academy.
Our recent Arts Week stands as a testament to the boundless creativity and imagination that flourishes within our school walls. Throughout this vibrant celebration of artistic expression, our children have immersed themselves in a rich tapestry of creative endeavours, from the rhythmic movements of dance that filled our halls with energy and joy, to the careful strokes of drawing that captured their unique perspectives of the world around them.
The culmination of our literary pursuits reached its zenith with our inaugural Poetry Slam competition, an event that showcased the remarkable eloquence and artistic sensibility of our children. The competition drew forth exceptional talent from across our school community, with four outstanding finalists emerging from a field of passionate young poets. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Khatiba, Suhan, and Anab, whose performances demonstrated remarkable skill and creativity. Special recognition must be given to Aayan, whose exceptional poetry reading earned the distinction of overall winner. All participants embodied the very essence of artistic expression and linguistic mastery that we strive to nurture within every child.
As we prepare for our Summer Fair on Friday, I encourage all families to secure their wristbands through our school office, where our dedicated staff will be delighted to assist you. Please remember that sibling discounts are available, reflecting our commitment to ensuring that every family can participate fully in this joyous celebration of our school community. Please speak to the school office for these. On this special day, school will conclude at 2pm, with children in the Nest finishing at 1.30pm, allowing families to transition seamlessly into our afternoon festivities.
Looking ahead to our upcoming Sports Days, I remind you that Reception children will demonstrate their athletic skills on 10th July, followed by Year 1 and Year 2 children on 11th July. These events represent the culmination of our physical education programme and provide wonderful opportunities for our children to showcase their sporting achievements whilst celebrating the values of teamwork, perseverance, and healthy competition.
Best wishes
