NSPCC Fundraising – Thank You

We would like to say a huge thank you and well done to all the children who obtained sponsorship for the NSPCC Buddy’s Challenge.  They raised an incredible £871.80 which is an amazing achievement.  The NSPCC visited school this morning to announce the amount raised and say thank you to all the children.  I will upload a photo from the assembly over the weekend.

Cross Country 20.11.17

Well done again to all the children who took part in the cross country event on Monday at The Corbet School.  It was lovely to see several new faces and thank you to the parents who gave up their time to bring children along and cheer them on.  We had 1st places again in the Year 4 and Year 6 boys’ races which is a fantastic achievement.  I would also like to say a special well done to Jess who missed the Year 3 girls’ race so ran in the Year 5 race instead; not only did she complete the longer course she finished in the middle of the field and made me feel very proud!

School Council’s First Meeting

Well done to all the children who put themselves forward to be on this year’s School Council.  Staff were amazed at some of the children’s speeches and the thought and effort which had been put into them.

The children who were elected to be part of the School Council had their first meeting today with Mrs Foster. Everyone introduced themselves and chose their badges. Older children then shared the ‘best bits’ of their election speeches and younger children shared what they were most looking forward to about being part of the School Council.
