Living and Learning: reflecting and connecting

Monday 27 April 2026

Pupils in 5/6 have been reflecting and connecting. Before the Easter break, we took some time to connect with our surroundings. Following the Easter break, one child was awestruck by the vibrant colour in this blossom tree on our playground. Another child asked if we could take a picture and share just how beautiful it was with everyone. The pink blossom framed against the dark green and grey is truly worth spending a few minutes just to stop and stare.

Perhaps, like Wordsworth you might take a moment to reflect:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
