May we please remind you that the school office can only pass on urgent messages to your children. Please ensure that your child is aware of the arrangements for pick up or after school clubs when you leave them in the morning. We are receiving too many ‘messages’ to pass on to deal with.

Thank you to everyone who came to watch the Sports Days today. Although the weather wasn’t as good as it could have been all the children had a wonderful time.

Carol Gollick, a representative from Tesco presented the school with a giant cheque for £2237 on Monday during the whole school assembly. Tesco support the local community through grants and Miss Lowey submitted a successful bid. The money will be spent on PE equipment and resources to support the SEAL work carried out in school. Well done Miss Lowey and thank you to Tesco.

The Foundation Stage classes had a wonderful day at the Anston House Butterfly Farm. The children behaved brilliantly. Many thanks to the parents who accompanied the children on the visit.

The judges from the Lord Mayor’s ‘Sheffield in Bloom’ competition came to judge the garden on Wednesday. Many thanks to Mrs Smith and her Gardening Club members for all their hard work in making such a success of the garden. Good Luck!

Congratulations to Marcus Turner who won the England Goodie Bag kindly donated by Mrs Fillingham. A total of £32.90 has been raised for SOS to add to their funds.

Please note that on Friday 25th June your child will be bringing home an information slip regarding which class they will be in next academic year.

Well done to all the Y5 pupils who took part in the Cricket Festival on Wednesday at Oughtibridge Cricket Ground. The boys team came 2nd, the girls team came 3rd and the mixed team came 4th. They all had a lovely day and were a credit to the school.

We would like to advise parents that the Y3/4 children will be having their living and growing lessons next week.
