Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.

• RED NOSE DAY

  Fri 21 Mar 2025 Miss Tucker

  We will be joining the fundraising efforts for RED NOSE DAY on Friday 21st March. As usual we are mindful of costs this could have so we are keeping the theme of 'Wear Something Red'. This is a non-uniform day for everyone. For those who want to donate to this worthy cause, please do so via parent pay on the day. We do have a limited number of official red noses on sale on parent pay too but children don't need to have these. 

   

• Half Term & INSET DAY

  Mon 17 Feb 2025 Miss Tucker

  School is closed from Monday 17th February to Friday 21st February for Half Term. We are also closed on Monday 24th February for our Flying High Inset Day. Children therefore return to school on Tuesday 25th February. We hope you have an enjoyable break. If the weather isn't kind, don't forget KIrkby Library is open with lots of great books and activities to do for free on offer.

• Leon's Legacy Fundraising Day

  Fri 14 Feb 2025 Miss Tucker

  On Friday 14th February we will host our annual Leon's Legacy fundraising day. Children can wear their own clothes on this day. Parent pay is open for a donation. We are raising money to support a very worthwhile charity set up by former Greenwood Stars to put defibrilators in schools and community buildings and to teach children about caring for their heart and basic CPR that could save a life. Every little helps, so please donate if you are able to. Thank you

• Harvest Festival in St Wilfrid's

  Thu 17 Oct 2024 Miss Tucker

  Thank you to all our community who attended our lovely Harvest Festival today. The children did us all proud. Wonderful singing and clear articulation of their words. Well done Y3 Superstars!

  

• Can Emergency Services Get Through?

  Thu 17 Oct 2024 Miss Tucker

  Please can we ask that any road users at collection and drop-off times, park considerately. Vehicles who double park do not allow space for emergency vehicles if they need to get to school. Also those who park across drop curbs are making it really unsafe for those with prams, pushchairs and wheelchairs.

  Please respect all our community if you HAVE TO bring your vehicles to school.

  Thank you

  Thank you for everyone who has so far donated items for the Free-Cycle Food Kitchen who provide free meals for the community. Our Harvest Festival is at St Wilfrid's Church at 2pm on 17th October led by Year 3. The children have made some delightful artwork which adorns one of the church windows. Parents, Carers and Grandparents are all welcome to attend.

• Summer Reading Challenge Champions

  Mon 14 Oct 2024 Miss Tucker

  Big thank you to the lovely ladies from Kirkby Library who came to present our trophy and £100 worth of books for our new library. Some of the children who helped us to victory brought their certificates into assembly and got a big round of applause from everyone. There is lots of fun at the library this half term, so make sure you pop in. It's all free.
