Foundation Stage held a tea party with parents to celebrate the upcoming Royal Wedding. We had a fantastic time.

A huge thank you to everyone who came and supported the academy at our chocolate bingo event on Thursday 22nd March. With your help we raised an incredible £305! 

On Thursday 8th March, Goldenhill Dance FINALLY got to perform their world class dance show to around 300 people at the Victoria Hall in Hanley! The show comprised of around 15 schools and over 200 children, celebrating dance across the years! The theme for Goldenhill was 'Science experiment gone wrong - Kids can't stop dancing!' All of the children were fantastic representatives for Goldenhill and made sure the months of hard work were worth it!
