Mental Health Fun Run

We are excited to announce that our junior children will be taking part in a fun run to celebrate World Mental Health Day! This is a wonderful opportunity for the children to get active and have fun while supporting an important cause.

To ensure everyone is comfortable, please can the children come to school in trainers or bring a pair with them. Your support in this event is greatly appreciated!

Wellington Boots

👢👢Wellington Boots 👢👢

Dear Parents and Carers,

We’re excited to let you know that children can now bring in their own wellington boots (wellies) to school! This means your child will be able to enjoy outdoor play and learning on the field throughout the year, whatever the weather.

To help us keep things organised, please ensure that your child’s wellies are clearly labelled on the inside with their name and class using a permanent marker.

Thank you for your support in helping us make the most of our outdoor space!

Y6 Trip to Magna

Dear Parents/Carers

This half term, Y6 have been studying electricity in science.  To support their learning, we will be going on an educational visit to Magna Science Adventure Centre in Rotherham.  This is sure to be a fantastic opportunity for all!

The visits will take place on:

  • Tuesday 4th November 2025 – Y6 Sapphire and ½ Y6 Amethyst
  • Thursday 6th November 2025 – Y6 Rhodonite and ½ Y6 Amethyst

We aim to leave school at 9:30am, so please bring your child to school at normal school time. We aim to be back in school for 3:15pm. If there are any delays, the school’s office team will contact you by 3:00pm. To ensure you can receive any updates on delays, please check your contact details are correct at the school’s main office.

We are asking for £10.00 per child which covers the cost of the coach, full access to the Science Centre and a workshop.  Please return payment in full via the Arbor app.

For this trip, children must wear full school uniform. You will need to provide your child with a packed lunch.  If your child is eligible for free school meals, a packed lunch will be provided for them.

If you have any questions about this trip, please talk to your child’s class teacher.

Thank you for your continued support.

Good morning, families!

We’re excited to share that our children are having a blast during playtime, and the OPAL project is really taking off! This week, we’re on the lookout for any old pots, pans, and kitchen utensils you no longer use. If you've got any spare items lying around, we’d be absolutely thrilled to give them a new life in our play sessions!

Also, don’t forget to check out some fun snapshots of the kids enjoying their lunchtime activities from last week! 📸

Thank you so much for your ongoing support! You truly make our community awesome! 💖
