COLESHILL CHURCH OF ENGLAND INFANT SCHOOL - Summer 2026

Over the Summer term, the children enjoyed several events, including sports festivals, the May

Fayre and drama workshops. The children have taken part in several sporting events at Holmer

Green senior school as part of our sports partnership festivals with other schools. They have

attended some fantastic sessions, including athletics, football, gymnastics and multi-sports

themed events.

May Fayre – a huge thank you!

I wanted to take this opportunity to say a HUGE thank you to Sam, Jessie, Sally, Sarah and

Hattie and the P&F team who worked tirelessly to organise a fantastic May Fayre this year.

Thank you also to all of our parents and staff members who kindly helped to run stalls, made

cakes and donated toys and goods, not to mention the set up and clean up. We are always

touched by the amount of effort and commitment that goes into our fundraising events and

are very grateful. We all had a lovely time despite the slightly chilly weather and welcomed

many visitors, villagers and current and former pupils.

On Thursday 4th June, we went on a whole school trip to Kew Gardens to learn more about

plants and their adaptability. The children had a lovely day, despite the weather, and did

educational workshops on amazing plants and maths in the great outdoors.

The children were very excited about the arrival of our first ever duck eggs, all 5 hatched into

gorgeous fluffy ducklings! We learned all about their lifecycle and how they grow. In previous

years, we have had hen eggs and chicks and this was our first time having ducklings and two of

them were adopted and now live in the village!

Our year 2 children have completed their final term here at Coleshill School, after three very

special years together. We want to give them a lovely send off before they head to their new

schools in September for the start of year 3. We wish them all well as they transfer to their

new schools, but also hope that they won’t forget us and will pop back to let us know how they

are doing! We still have regular visits from many alumni, who have fond memories of being at

Coleshill School.

The children did three fantastic performances of our Summer play “Hats Off!” in July and

enjoyed many brilliant events including Sports Day, our African drumming workshop and the

Country Dancing festival before the close of the academic year.

We look forward to welcoming our new Reception children in September 2026, if you know of

anyone still looking for a school place or who have recently moved to the area, please put

them in touch with the office at office@coleshillceinfant.school
