I had the pleasure of coming in to watch The Emerald Crown this morning, as well as volunteering on the Tropical World trip last week. On both occasions, I was truly blown away by how amazing both the children and the staff are.
Lydgate is a truly special school, and I’m so grateful to have had all three of my children attend. Thank you for allowing parents the opportunity to get a glimpse of such a wonderful environment.

It’s wonderful that musical opportunities are offered to all of the children, not just those who have the means or inclination to learn an instrument. We are very aware of the staff’s extra time and effort to provide this inclusive and supportive musical environment, and we are really grateful for it.

Our Choir "sang unaccompanied - they were not at all phased by this and sang like angels. Their behaviour was impeccable. They were a credit to the school and to their music teachers."

"We very much enjoyed our time spent at school. We would like to say a big THANK YOU to all the Y6 pupils for their energy, enthusiasm and willingness to listen and learn"

'Bikeability' trainers

"Learning should be fun, but also that it is a professional, disciplined undertaking and also a desire to grow, even excel, in the broadest sense, as a person"
