You absolutely nailed this week's Touch Spot challenge, E! Piece of cake!
Final Karate Practice & Grading Reminder!
Today is our last practice before grading! Please ensure your child has their full karate suit today and next week. Without it, they won't be able to participate in next week's grading. If your child misses either today's session or next week's grading, the next opportunity will be January 26th.
A huge well done to all our Karate Kids – you're smashing your lessons with Sensei Paul and Sensei Jesse! Good luck everyone!
Green Flag Glory: Eco Council Plans for September & Gets Hands-On!
Since achieving our Green Flag Distinction, it was a real highlight to meet with the Eco Council once more today. We not only brainstormed our upcoming September initiatives but also enjoyed some hands-on planting.
Paper Power: Year 2 Explores 3D Art Skills
Our Year 2s had a fantastic afternoon diving into the skills needed for 3D art! They expertly manipulated paper through cutting, ripping, curling, spiraling, bending, and folding.
Our children had an absolute blast baking with Leah yesterday! We heard the cakes, boasting three kinds of chocolate, were utterly amazing. You can see what our friends at North Birkenhead Development Trust - St James Centre are up to by checking out their page – there's always something exciting happening!

Improving attendance is everyone’s business.

At Co-op Academy Portland, we will do all we can to support your family and ensure our academy is safe, calm and a supportive environment for your child. Let’s celebrate everyone’s success together.
