    Welcome to The Gainsborough Parish Church

    At Parish, we value each person as they are, seeing every member of our school family as a precious, unique individual and treating them with dignity.  Seeking first to understand through the building of relationships, we live in a community of hope.  We aspire to enable each person to be a curious learner, inspired to develop the knowledge and wisdom to make the world a better place.  We strive to encourage all to fulfil their God-given potential, having a confidence in transformation for the better.

    This week, our Reception learners have deepened their understanding of the human body through sensory exploration at our discovery table. It has been fantastic to observe and listen as children use rich vocabulary to describe what they can hear, smell, touch and see, building language and sensory awareness together! In Maths, we have introduced comparing and sorting. Starting with pompoms, children have been grouping items by different attributes. Using tools like pegs and sticky tape requires focus and coordination, developing those essential fine motor skills. The children have shown great enthusiasm and enjoyed the new learning through play activities.

    Year 5 and Year 6 had a great time yesterday visiting the library and choosing a new book to enjoy! It was lovely to see everyone browsing the shelves and finding something that caught their interest. Reading regularly is so important and makes such a difference to children's learning. Please remember that we ask children to read at least 3 times each week and for these reads to be logged on Learning with Parents. Happy reading!

    This week, we were excited to launch our new World of Work leadership roles, giving our children the opportunity to develop their talents, take on responsibility and make a positive difference across our school community. Linked to our core values of Hope, Dignity, Community and Wisdom, these roles will empower children to lead, serve others and help shape school life in meaningful ways. We can't wait to see our young leaders flourish in their roles as they help make Parish an even more caring, inclusive and inspiring place to learn. #aboveandbeyond #journeytogether #teamparish
