This quick half-term sees the KPA volunteers busy with ice lolly sales, penny wars and our final doughnut sale of the school year. We are purchasing some much needed gazebos for the school and hopefully adding to the school reading resources.

It has been a busy term at KMA. As part of our continuous drive for further improvement since our ‘Good’ Ofsted judgement last year, we recently welcomed a team of external reviewers to KMA, conducted by Challenge Partners. These consist of a team of senior leaders from schools across the area, who spent three days at KMA looking at our strengths and how we can further improve. 

Severn Trent Water visited our Year 4 pupils to share their expertise on the fascinating journey of water. The session was both educational and engaging, leaving our students with a deeper understanding of the water cycle and the vital role Severn Trent plays in managing our water resources.

Kibworth Primary School is thrilled to announce that we will be opening our very own pre-school. We're set to launch in September 2025. This new addition to our primary school provision marks a significant milestone for our school and the local community.

As part of environmental improvements around the Kibworth Mead Academy site, we planted 1,000 hedge whips around the Academy’s car park areas. A total of over 100 enthusiastic Year 8 students planted them throughout a warm March day, Thursday 20.

We would like to begin by again extending a huge thank you to everyone who donated preloved books for the World Book Day event. It was a massive success and the children adored selecting a book to keep. We look forward to repeating this next year as it was so wonderful.

Year 5 has been busy working on the Archbishop's Young Leaders Award to teach them how to be strong leaders who can drive change. The final part of this award is to complete a sustainability project. Year 5 has introduced ‘Super Shoesday.  Walk to and from school every Tuesday!’ 

In our annual wellbeing week, we were lucky to be able to welcome Sarah from Dogs Trust. Sarah spent three days in school and talked to all of the children about how to care for dogs safely. She taught the children how to approach dogs, how to stroke dogs and what a dog’s behaviour tells the children.

We have had a really positive Spring term so far at KMA.

We are proud to announce a significant milestone in our school’s development: the construction of a brand new Sports Hall. This exciting project is a testament to Leicester Grammar School Trust’s ongoing commitment to providing our pupils with exceptional facilities that enrich their educational journey.
