Waddington All Saints Academy – Through the Eyes of a Child

We didn’t want to tell you what it is like to be a child at our school, we wanted them to show you. Even on a damp autumn day in the heart of the 2020 lockdown, the irresistibility of the learning, the richness of the curriculum and the love of reading shone out. Our pupils know how much it means to us that they are safe, happy and successful and as a result they care deeply about their education and each other and it shows. Welcome to Waddington All Saints Academy. We are grateful to you for taking the time to watch our video – ‘Through the Eyes of a Child’.

Our Vision

“If they have wings, why make them walk?”

At Waddington All Saints Academy our aim is to provide a learning environment and experience that enables children to thrive and develop as learners and leaders.

We want to inspire and motivate all children to have a wonderful desire to learn and grow as individuals and as a collective. To empower and support them to become life-long learners who are prepared to take risks, learn with growing independence and develop skills that enable them to fly high academically, socially, emotionally and physically.

We want our pupils to thrive as a result of our ambition for them to succeed beyond their own expectations and through the identification and removal of their barriers to learning and achievement.

Through the delivery of irresistible learning opportunities and rich experience, we strive to give children the ability and confidence to work and speak as experts; progressively building transferable knowledge and understanding that is memorable, broad and empowering. This, alongside the relentless drive for high quality outcomes and progress, underpinned by excellence and pride, exemplifies our ambition for our pupils.

We expect pupils to behave as responsible good citizens and role models, supporting them to understand the choices and behaviours that will enable them to make positive decisions. We do this within a culture of mutual respect for all within our community, encouraging kindness, tolerance and care for others

We measure our success in our ability to support pupils to have the skills, knowledge, personal qualities and drive to be successful within the next stages of their life and beyond and to make a positive contribution to life in modern Britain.

“The behaviour of pupils is outstanding. Pupils follow school routines to the letter. As a result, behaviour in the school grounds, in corridors and in the dining hall is usually impeccable.”

Commando Joe's missions for Year 2 this term, have been focused upon building survival skills and protecting the environment. With the help of Steve Backshall, they were tasked with working as a team to create a plan to save Commando Joe’s beloved teddy bear, who had managed to get himself stuck in a tree! Year 2 showed excellent perseverance and worked hard to communicate about their ideas in teams, showing the resilience to get the job done! ... See MoreSee Less

We want to say a huge thank you to all of our pupils for their efforts and pride in our academy on Environmental Day. This day was an opportunity for the children to work together, supported by our staff, to transform our outside areas into welcoming environments for learning. They all worked incredibly hard gardening, weeding, pruning and polishing to help make our school shine. We are also very grateful to the generous volunteers who gave up their time to help us with some of the bigger jobs. The school areas look much more inviting and children have already been making use of the refreshed areas during lesson and break times. ... See MoreSee Less

North Kesteven Academy were kind enough to also invite our Year 4 pupils for an experience day and what a fabulous experience they had! They performed a short play based on kitchen appliances rebelling against a grumpy human in the drama studios, which was great fun! In addition, they were very excited to get 'creative' in the printing in the art studio. The staff at NK remarked how well behaved our pupils were and how fabulous their art skills were. ...

Key Stage 2 Art Club have been 'diving into art'. Inspired by 'The Great Wave' by Katsushika Hokusai, our pupils created their own wave and thought about where they would be if they 'dived' into their painting. Having posed as a surfer, swimming, rower, they integrated their photographs into their picture.

These and other 'masterpieces' from across the academy will be on show for an Art Exhibition at 3.30pm Thursday 11th July.

All welcome!

Year 1 have been trying out different types of printing to identify their favourite approach. They agreed that relief printing would be best for their final piece of artwork with the theme 'The four seasons and how they change'. They designed leaf and snowflake tiles and used these to create a fantastic collaborative piece of art. ... See MoreSee Less

Well done to our Year 5 and Year 6 High Flyers for presenting a wonderful celebration of learning this morning. We were treated to a wire sculpture, a coordinates demonstration, fantastic descriptive writing and a sneak preview performance of a song from next week's show.

It was a poignant 'High Flyers Assembly' as it was not only the last one for our current Year 6 pupils, but it was also the last one that Mr Martin will lead.
