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

Thank you to everyone who supported the KS2 coffee afternoon.  The raffle and sale of refreshments raised an amazing £114.90, which will help support our KS2 trips.

World Book Day was an enjoyable day, Children listened to stories from Tales of the Heartwood and enjoyed their hot chocolate.  Staff and children came to school dressed in their pyjamas or dressed as their favourite book character.  We raised £248.99 which has helped to cover the costs of the day.  Thank you for your support.

“Four children from Breakfast Club, travelled with Mrs Crofts and Mrs Brown all the way to London on Wednesday 4^th March to collect our award for being named as Kellogg’s Best Breakfast Club in the East Midlands in 2019.

 

We all had a very exciting day travelling by taxi, train and London Underground. We were very lucky as it was a day for ‘Changing the Guard at Buckingham Palace’ so we listened to a military band and watch the guards ride their horses across Horse Guards Parade ground.

We also found an old fashioned red telephone box.

We enjoyed lunch at the Houses of Parliament, courtesy of Kellogg’s and then were presented with our Award.

We all had a great day.“

Unfortunately it has been necessary to cancel the Dance Fit After School Club this evening (Wednesday 29.1.2020).  We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

The children who attended breakfast club this morning enjoyed the Chinese New Year theme - they tried a range of chinese foods including lychee's and fortune cookies.

Thank you to all the Staff and Parents that supported us on our visit to Mansfield Museum.  The children are excited about displaying their work at the Museum.

All last term, the Young Voices choir has been rehearsing songs ready for the concert this month. Last Friday 10^th January, we travelled to the Sheffield Arena to take part in a massive concert involving over 4000 children, professional artists and guest singers.  These included Tony Hadley (from Spandau Ballet – remember them?) and Ruti Olajugbagbe (winner of The Voice 2018).  We were treated to a spectacular show involving lights, singing and dancing, finally getting back to school at 10pm.  It was a truly memorable night.
