• Red Nose Day March 13th 2015

  Fri 13 Mar 2015

  We had a day of fantastic fundraising in school on RED NOSE DAY, Friday 13th March!

   

  We always participate in fundraising for Comic Relief as it's a fantastic cause that helps millions of people less fortunate than us. This year, the theme ws 'Make your face funny for money' and so pupils came to school with  weird, wacky or wonderful creations on their faces!

   

  There were a tonne of ideas on the Comic Relief website pages here:

  Thank you to you all for your generosity in providing a voluntary donation in return for children being able to take part in the funny face creations.

   

  

• World Book Day celebrations

  Thu 05 Mar 2015

  We've been celebrating World Book Day 2015 in school by taking part in a range of reading activities across the school.

   

  Children and staff came to school dressed in the most fabulous, creative costumes. And best of all? Drop Everything and Read (D.E.A.R) sessions across the school. How amazing is it to just stop, sit and share a good book?

   

  Loads of fun ideas for you to use at home on the World Book Day site here:

• Reading Quality Mark GOLD award

  Wed 04 Mar 2015

  We are incredibly proud to announce that we have been working towards attaining the Reading Quality Mark award and have been assessed in February as attaining the GOLD category. In partnership with the National Literacy Trust, the Liverpool Reading Quality Mark has been developed to focus on promoting reading for enjoyment.

   

  The school was assessed by a member of the local authority, who spent the day looking around our school, speaking to the Head Teacher and senior leaders, as well as groups of children and our pupil reading ambassadors. Schools can attain bronze, silver or gold, so we are delighted to be awarded the highest grade possible.

   

  The project has been led by Mrs Griffiths, our school's lead for Reading and a huge amount of work has gone into developing a love of reading for our children and adults in the school community.

   

  We are very proud of all involved! Find out more here:
