A blanket of snow makes everything seem so magical and bright, and we certainly made the most of it whilst it lasted. Ms Smith's impromptu snowman building competition, set for lunchtime, was swifty brought forward to break as the ice was already melting fast however Year 8's Junior Y managed to gather enough for this tiny figure. The primary schools' 'Breakfast Club in the Hex had more success though, completing their snowmen with high-vis jacket and pom-poms for buttons. Looks like the little ones had lots of fun and they definitely gave us a smile. Meanwhile, Mr Bullock, who never needs an excuse to get the drone out of its box, managed to take some fantastic photos of Penwortham Priory from above. These were not quite as clear quality as they could be due to the snow which was still coming down! ### Snowy Days at Priory January 2024 [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_2974%20this%20one.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_2974%20this%20one.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_2975%20this%20one.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_2975%20this%20one.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_5678%20Breakfast%20Club.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_5678%20Breakfast%20Club.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_6097%20Snowman%20building.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/IMG_6097%20Snowman%20building.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/20240116_084924000_iOS.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/20240116_084924000_iOS.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/20240116_085500000_iOS.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/snowy-days-at-priory-january-2024/20240116_085500000_iOS.jpg) [Gardens](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/gardens) [Community](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/community) [ Pupils receive Priory+ Awards from Mr Eastham](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/2024-01-19-pupils-receive-priory-awards-from-mr-eastham) [Gold and silver for Priory's gymnasts ](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/2024-01-25-gold-and-silver-for-priory-s-gymnasts) ### Penwortham Priory Academy Crow Hills Road Penwortham Preston Lancashire PR1 0JE 01772 320250 ### Useful Links - [New Year 7 Transition](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/about-priory/transition) - [The School Day](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/the-school-day) - [Facility Hire](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/facility-hire-at-priory) - [Term Dates](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/termdates) - [Letters](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/letters) ### Useful Links - [Newsletters](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/newsletters) - [OFSTED](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/about-priory/ofsted-report) - [Online Payments](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/internet-payments) - [Staff Contact](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/staff/staff-contact-list) - [Vacancies](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/staff/vacancies) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/priorystc) - [X](https://twitter.com/@priorystc) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/penworthampriory/) Penwortham Priory Academy Trust is operating as a single academy trust.
