  We were lucky enough to be offered 50 free pizza kits from Nonsuch again last week. Friday Night was Pizza Night for some of our lucky families - the comments and photos show that it was much appreciated. 

  "Thank you for the free pizza - it was very tasty"

  " We enjoyed making our dinner for tonight, thank you!"

  Please find enclosed photos of my son making pizzas. Thank you so much for the opportunity, he did loved making them!"

   

  If anyone else has any comments or photos they can send to us - that would be great.

  

• Pizza Making Weekend Thanks to Nonsuch

  Tue 28 Sep 2021 Corinna Brown

  Some lucky children were given pizza making kits last Friday! Thanks to Nonsuch, a local arts charity, we received 25 kits. Nonsuch have designed this creative project with funding from The Thomas Farr Charity, the Alec Dickson Foundation, The Western Power Festive Fund & Warburtons. 

   

  The children have lovely smiling faces in the photos! The pizzas look amazing! One family said they were not sure if their child enjoyed making the pizza or eating it the most! We hope you try this again as your children enjoyed it so much!

   

  The kits came in their own box, with dough already made, cheese, tomato sauce and full instructions. 

   

  If you were not lucky enough to get a kit, you could still have a go at making your own pizza - so much cheaper than buying one and so much fun! You can make your own dough or buy a base, spread tomato sauce and then go to town with different toppings! Cook and enjoy!

• Mansfield Townscape Heritage Project - Asquith Pupil Makes an Impact

  Tue 02 Feb 2021 Corinna Brown

  Lydia has made a tremendous impact on the Mansfield Townscape Heritage Project by recording a story told to her by her grandad about Mansfield. 

  Lydia took part in Oral History training alongside 9 other girls from year 5/6 in December 2020. They all gained skills so they could interview an older person about a memory they have of Mansfield.

  Lydia chose to interview her grandad. As he lives a distance away and we are in a lockdown, they talked over the telephone and Lydia wrote his memory down, about the Queen visiting Mansfield for her Silver Jubilee. 

  Lydia then made an excellent recording of his story, full of expression, carefully paced to be very easy to listen to. (Unfortunately we can not add the audio file at the moment but we are working on it!)

  Pete Brown, Community Participation Coordinator for the Mansfield Townscape Project was so impressed with Lydia's recording he wanted to do something extra special for her so she has been gifted a very impressive recording microphone! He said Lydia is "so fluent and her pacing is perfect. A star is born!". 

  Thank you to Lydia and her family for taking the time to create this memory for the Townscape Heritage Project.

• Drop off & pick up

  Wed 11 Mar 2020

  Please can we ask Parents/Carers to avoid using/parking on Asquith Street when they are dropping off /collecting their children from school.  This is a narrow street and for health and safety reasons it is important to keep the use to a minimum.  

   

  Please can we also ask individuals to be considerate towards the people who live around the school.  If you need to travel by car to bring/collect your child from school please be mindful of how and where you park ie don't block driveways, don't park close to junctions etc

   

  Thank you
