Wednesday Wigglers! This term, our brilliant co-designers Sophia and Isla have been running their own club, Wednesday Wigglers! They invited Year 2 pupils to join their weekly dance and movement sessions, designing fun activities, teaching new moves, and helping children build confidence through being active. They've shown fantastic leadership, and we're so proud of their positive attitude. Next term, they'll be running the club for Year 1 pupils! Well done and thank you, Sophia and Isla!
Curie Class had a fantastic time making pancakes yesterday as part of their learning in DT! The children explored key food technology skills from measuring and mixing ingredients to cooking safely and evaluating their finished creations. A huge thank you to all of our amazing adult helpers who made the session run so smoothly! #LittleCommonSchool #FoodTech #Year5DT #CookingInSchool #DesignAndTechnology #LearningCaringSucceedingTogether
Once upon a birthday, Wolfie turned 10. The balloons floated, 'Hokey Cokey' was a success, musical statues turned everyone into giggling statues, and the cake waited proudly for its birthday song. Flapjacks, friends, and fabulous wishes filled the day with magic.

Earps Class have had their final swimming session. This week, they took part in a fun swim to celebrate their amazing progress and growing confidence. Well done Earps Class.
Our preschoolers had a wonderful adventure this week at Everything Spice Bakery. They met Teresa, explored the smells and sights of a real working bakery, and even chose and bought five hot cross buns to bring back to school. We shared them with our friends and are very excited for more trips in our local environment. #EarlyYears #EYFS #LearningThroughPlay #RealWorldLearning #LittleExplorers #CommunityLinks #LocalAdventures #OutAndAbout #EverythingSpiceBakery #CuriousLearners #LearningInTheCommunity #CreativeChildren #ConfidentExplorers #AmbitiousAdventures #HealthyChoices

Eid Mubarak to all our families celebrating! Wishing you a joyful day filled with peace, togetherness and special moments with loved ones
Our Year 6 pupils stepped back in time today for an unforgettable VE Day experience! They explored real wartime artefacts, heard stories from the era, and learned about what life was like for families during World War II. We rounded off the day with a VE Day–style street party, complete with spam sandwiches, wartime songs and even a bit of Lindy Hop dancing! A huge highlight was welcoming residents from our local care homes, who joined us to share memories and celebrate with the children. These intergenerational moments mean so much, helping our pupils understand history through real voices and real stories. Experiences like today enrich our curriculum, spark curiosity, and strengthen the community connections that make Little Common so special.
British Science Week at Little Common! It was a brilliant week of curiosity, creativity and handson learning across the school last week. Our children took part in exciting assemblies, eyeopening experiments and inspiring workshops led by real scientists and engineers. From building structures and testing predictions to watching live demonstrations, our pupils absolutely threw themselves into every activity – with plenty of "wow!" moments along the way. A huge thank you to our staff and visitors for bringing Science Week to life. The children loved every minute!
