The children shared their thoughts and ideas about what brings a smile to their faces before creating their own happy-face drawings. It was lovely to hear all the different things that make the children feel happy, from spending special time with family to playing with friends. Some of their wonderful answers included: - "Watching movie nights with my Mummy and going to see Santa." - "My Mummy and Daddy because they cuddle me." - "When my friends play with me." The children enjoyed listening to one another and discovering that everyone has different things that make them feel happy. It was also a lovely opportunity to think about the importance of family, friendship, kindness and spending time with the people we care about. Well done Reception! --- ### Reception Explore Feelings and Happiness [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144641_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144641_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144617_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144617_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144553_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144553_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144544_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144544_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144523_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/reception-explore-feelings-and-happiness/Screenshot_9-11-2026_144523_outlook.cloud.microsoft.jpeg) [ School Choir Perform at St Michael's Christmas Fayre 2026](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news/2026-11-07-school-choir-perform-at-st-michael-s-christmas-fayre-2026) [Year 5 Science - Salt Flats ](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news/2026-11-10-year-5-science-salt-flats) ### Our School - [Welcome from our Headteacher](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/welcome-from-our-headteacher) - [About our School](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/about-our-school) - [Our News](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news) - [Values, Vision and Mission Statement](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/values-vision-missionstatement) - [Open Events](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/open-events) - [Virtual Tour](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/virtual-tour) - [Our Staff](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/staff) - [Admissions](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/admissions) - [Governance](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/governors) - [School Prospectus](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/school-prospectus) - [Policies and Reports](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/policies) - [School Performance Data](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/school-performance-data) - [Ofsted and Academic Results](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/Ofsted-and-Academic-Results) - [The Equality Act](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/student-support/the-equality-act) - [Work for Us](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/work-for-us1) - [Omega MAT](https://omegamat.co.uk/) - [Contact Us](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/contact) ![Burtonwood Community Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/logo/Omega_Part_of_Logo_White_Mono.png) **Burtonwood Community Primary School** Green Lane Burtonwood Warrington WA5 4AQ Tel: 01925 224072 Email: ## Follow Us - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090550038773&locale=en_GB) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/omega-multi-academy-trust) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/burtonwoodcps) ## Translation © Copyright 2020–2026 Burtonwood Community Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/) Update cookies preferences
