Today, we have teamed up with thousands of young people all over to spread some sunshine by wearing yellow! It’s no secret that the world can be a challenging place for our kids and teens.

A huge THANK YOU for helping us raise £170

It was brilliant to see smiles on faces on everyone who joined in the fun run today too! Let’s keep the momentum going and support each other every step of the way!

#WorldMentalHealthDay

This week in nursery, we are enjoying the delightful story of Owl Babies! Sharing stories helps children build imagination, vocabulary, and a love of reading. Happy reading!

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

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!

Good morning families

We will hold our annual lantern parade on Wednesday 5th November! Bring your lanterns and enjoy the fun. Please arrive at school with your lanterns for 3.30pm, the parade will start at 4pm.

There will be entertainment from our school choir, Bollywood dancers, fire throwers stilt walkers and much more!

Please note photography will be taken at the event and used on social media.

If you wish to book a stall, please contact Rachel Metcalfe on 0114 2442189

Come along and join the fun, we can't wait to see you there!

After reading owl babies in nursery, we talked about the three baby owls from the story — Sarah, Percy, and Bill — and then had a go at ordering different owls by size. The children did a wonderful job using words like “biggest,” “smaller,” and “tiny!”

We are having our first "Play, Chat and Learn" session for nursery parents! Join us on Monday 10th November 8.30am for AM nursery and 12.15pm for PM nursery, all nursery parents are welcome. Let’s get together to support our little ones’ early development through fun and engaging activities!

Dear families.

As a school, we feel it is important for us to recognise and support everyone's mental health.

To acknowledge World Mental Health Day, we are inviting all children to attend school in something yellow on Friday 10th October 2025.

We kindly ask that children donate £1 and all monies raised will go to Young minds charity.

Thank you #WorldMentalHealthDay2025

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!
