We were very lucky to welcome Shereen from Grimsby Central Mosque into school today to share her faith and knowledge of Islam with our children. We began the morning by gathering together in worship, learning about Islam, important celebrations, the Five Pillars of Islam and key prophets, helping children to deepen their understanding of different beliefs with curiosity and respect Our Hedgehogs and Rabbits then continued their learning with Shereen, exploring mosques and prayer. The children enjoyed building and drawing mosques, learning about their special features, discovering prayer mats – their colours and how they are used – and listening carefully to a story about celebrating Eid This was a wonderful opportunity to live out our Christian values of kindness, understanding and respect for others, learning together with wonder, belief and joy Thank you for joining us, it was a lovely morning.

Fantastic Football from Our Y5/6 Boys! A huge well done to our Y5/6 boys who took part in the Ramsdens Home Interiors Small Schools Football Qualifiers, supported by the North East Lincolnshire School Sport Partnership. Competing against four other teams, the team showed real determination and skill winning 3 games, losing just 1, and finishing an excellent 2nd overall. What a brilliant achievement! Mrs Wright was extremely proud of all the boys who represented our school so positively. They played some amazing football and demonstrated resilience, teamwork and perseverance, reflecting our school vision of Wonder, Belief and Joy. We would also like to say a huge thank you to Mrs Wright for her encouragement, support and commitment to the team it truly makes a difference. The boys will now play Willows Academy in the Final, hopefully at Blundell Park . Having won the overall competition last year, we are excited to see if they can become backtoback champions!

Staying safe with apps and games App and Play Stores offer lots of fun and learning, but not everything is childfriendly. Understanding app risks, using parental controls and talking regularly with your child can help keep them safe online. Working together, we can support children to make smart and safe digital choices #OnlineSafety #DigitalSafety #KeepingChildrenSafe #FamilyOnlineSafety #WakeUpWednesday #SafeOnline

Happy Easter from East Ravendale Primary School As we celebrate Easter, we would like to wish all members of our school community a very happy Easter. At Easter, Christians remember the wonderful story of Jesus' resurrection – a story filled with hope, new life and God's everlasting love. It is a time of wonder as we reflect on God's amazing world, belief as we trust in His promises and joy as we celebrate together. To mark this special season, our Makaton Club would like to share a special Easter message with you. We hope it brings a smile to your face and encourages our whole community to pause, reflect and wonder together.

Today, we pause to reflect on Good Friday a day that invites us into wonder, strengthens our belief and reminds us that true joy can be found even in times of challenge. The story of Good Friday teaches us powerful lessons that we strive to live out every day in our school community. Through reflection, children learn about resilience when things are difficult, generosity through selfless love and kindness in the way we care for and support one another. As we reflect together, we encourage our children to carry these values into their words and actions, showing compassion, empathy and hope in all that they do. Wishing our families a peaceful and reflective Good Friday Lincoln Anglican Academy Trust #GoodFriday #ChristianValues #Wonder #Belief #Joy #Kindness #Resilience #Generosity #FaithInAction #LAAT

Well Done to Our Decorate an Egg Competition Winners! A huge well done to our winners of this year's Decorate an Egg competition – your creations were truly eggcellent! Here are some of the winning eggs. We were so impressed by the effort, time and care that went into all of the eggs entered today. The creativity on display was amazing, and every single entry should be very proud. Our judging panel had a very tricky job choosing the winners, as the standard was so high and every entry was eggceptional in its own way. Well done to everyone who took part! A big thank you to everyone who supported the children with their designs Lincoln Anglican Academy Trust #DecorateAnEgg #EasterFun #CreativeKids #SchoolCommunity #Wonder #Belief #Joy #LAAT
