Governors, staff and pupils at Lodge Lane Infant School would like to welcome you to our website.
Our approach to learning, which is based on Imaginative Inquiry, offers a creative and dynamic curriculum with a wide range of opportunities for our pupils to experience. Children enjoy coming to Lodge Lane, where we strive to ensure they develop a positive attitude towards learning.
An important early maths skills is 'subitising'. This is the ability to look at a small set of objects and know how many there are without counting them. Children in Reception have been working hard on this skill. Can you try at home? Put your hands behind your back and then hold up some fingers. Can you tell how many there are without counting?
23 Jan 2025This term, our whole school value is perseverance. We have been hearing lots of stories in assembly about perseverance and have been thinking hard about what it means to persevere. These Y1 children have really put their learning into practice by persevering with this puzzle. We know that we never give up and we know that good learning can take a long time!
21 Jan 2025Year 2 had a wonderful time going to see The Tiny Magic Orchestra on Thursday. This event was organised by Norfolk and Suffolk Music Hub so a BIG thank you to them! We enjoyed going on a journey to mountains, a cave, under the sea and even into space and got to see musicians from the Britten Sinfonia playing their clarinet, harp, flute and ukulele as part of the story. We were amazed to discover how many hours - more than 10,000 - the musicians would have practised to be so good. How's about that for perseverance?!
20 Jan 2025Year 2 have had something strange happen! "There was once a wide, windswept place, near nowhere and close to forgotten, that was filled with all the things that no one wanted." What sort of things would no one want? We drew our ideas. Then, we discovered that there was a small house right in the middle that looked out on other people's rubbish and bad weather. What a mystery! We had all sorts of questions about it and can't wait to find out what it all means and what happens next.
15 Jan 2025Year 1 have been busy learning about snowflakes and winter in their science lessons. Here, they are using the scientific enquiry skill of observing carefully. What has happened? What do you think will happen next? #scientists #perseverance
