• Power In Three Concert at Mansfield Palace Theatre.

  Wed 02 Jul 2025

  Last night was the Power in Three concert at Mansfield Palace Theatre. Three schools, Abbey, Asquith and Wynndale all took part in singing and music sessions, with each school having a band and a choir, as well as the three school choir.

   

  The children did brilliantly, some amazing talent was evident! Well done to everyone. Lots of big smiles all round. The photos show that joy. There are some of Asquith's choir and then our children in the three schools choir and then a few of our friends from Abbey and Wynndale too.

   

  It was a great night - thank you to everyone who supported us - either parents in the audience or staff members looking after the children, staff members who worked with choirs and bands to make sure they sounded so beautiful. A special big thank you to Mr Hynd, for his work pulling the whole three school choir together! What an amazing achievement.

• Supporting Ethan's Hike Challenge

  Thu 19 Jun 2025

  You may remember Joel and Ethan, brothers who used to come to Asquith Primary School. Very sadly, Joel passed away on 2nd Sept 2024. 

  His brother, Ethan, is walking to raise money for Joel's special page on the umbrella charity CCLG, towards research projects into the condition that Joel had. 

  Ethan is walking 20km in the Peak District with his scouting friends. To support him and to show that we are still thinking about him and his family, the staff team have raised money for Ethan and made a donation to the fundraising page. We took photos with our thumbs up as that was Joel's usual pose! 

  You may wish to support Ethan with fundraising though his hike too. You can find the page by searching  'Thumbs Up For Joel' on the CCLG website. 

  Thumbs up for Joel. 

  

• Capital One Visit

  Wed 23 Apr 2025

  Today the second half of the year 6 children visited the Capital One Office in Nottingham. We learnt what Capital One do, about different peoples jobs in the organisation, we had a tour of the office and talked about lots of skills that the organisation would be looking for in our pupils. They tried to help the children think about their own skills and how they can develop those skills more and why they might be useful to an employer in the future. Then we used all the recycling that families had helped to gather together, to make a robot that could be used by Capital One - children won prizes! Wow! 

• Note from Simeon from Lambourne End

  Tue 01 Apr 2025

  Asquith and Wynndale, 

  What's up guys. It was a real pleasure to get to know you all while you were here. Each and every one of you achieved something amazing while you were here and have every reason to be very proud. 

  We have all enjoyed thinking back on our week with you and I have a lovely time reading your postcards. Please let them be a reminder of how great you felt after a week of freedom in the outdoors and you grew as people and connected with the world around you and each other. 

  We are all part of the natural world, and have a responsibility to look after it. But most importantly to ENJOY IT! Get out there as spring takes hold. Smell the flowers, lie in the grass, watch the butterflies and bees as they dance through the sky, sing with the birds, take time with the trees and always remember that you are a part of it all. 

  Thank you for coming to spend your week at Lambourne End.

  All the best from me and the team, Simeon Walsh, Lambourne End Instructor.  

• Day 5 - packing up and on our way home!

  Tue 25 Mar 2025

• Lambourne End Residential - days 4

  Fri 28 Feb 2025

  We've followed a sensory rope trail through the woods, found out more about the woods and nature in the area, created a sniff pot from the herb garden.

  After an excellent lunch, we abseiled and completed a zip line.  

  After tea it was camp fire, with singing, musical instruments and marshmallows before completing an evaluation and a few games before bed. Our last night! 

  

• Lambourne End Residential day 3

  Fri 28 Feb 2025

  Another fantastic day, we've had a great day on the farm!! We have looked after the animals, fed and watered them, groomed the horses and had a ride in a pony and trap! We learned all about pigs, sheep horses, goats, chickens and Hector the tortoise. Lots of smiles and a tutor that kept us on track and focused! 

   

• Lambourne End Residential - day two!

  Tue 25 Feb 2025

  Oh my goodness, what fun we have had today! Started with archery, competing against ourselves to improve. Mountain biking, brand new bikes to use, through mud, over little hills, peddling up steep hills. Some children now able to ride a bike who couldn't before! So proud of everyone! 

  After lunch we went on a hike, finding out about the nearby woods. It was VERY muddy! Caving was challenging for lots of children, but many who didn't want to do it initially found they really enjoyed it. After tea we had a night walk, all linked together holding a rope, followed by a game of night sardines, which involved finding the teachers in the dark!!!
