  • Newsletter - June Week One

    Published 10/01/25

    Dear Families,

     

    It’s been a very busy first week back.  KS2 are busy rehearsing for the Summer Show.  Don’t forget to send money in for your tickets.

     

    Year 6 Dentist talk
    Year 6 had a workshop focusing on making sure you clean your teeth carefully and correctly.  They learnt about how certain foods can damage your teeth and how much sugar is in certain foods.  Hopefully, all the children will be taking extra care of their teeth from now on.

     

    Swimming Gala trials
    This went really well today.  I was so impressed with how fast the children were.  They really have improved from the last time I took them swimming.   Just to confirm, we won’t be deciding who is coming to the gala until after the third week of trials.

     

    Small & Tall care club price increase
    Unfortunately, we have had to make the unpopular decision of increasing prices.  This is due to the overall costs increasing so much.  The new prices will start in September.  Mornings will be £5.95 and after school it will be £9.85.

     

    Transitions
    Over the next few weeks, the children will be meeting their new teachers as well as finding out where to arrive for school in the mornings and leave at the end of the day.  The official move up morning is Thursday 3rd July.  Children will need to go to their usual class for registration, and then they will go to their new classroom.

     

    Have a lovely weekend.

    Take care and stay safe.

  • Newsletter - February Week One

    Published 10/01/25

    Dear Families,

     

    Year 5 Gymnastics
    Five of our Year 5 girls took part in a gymnastics competition against some other Co-op Academy Trust primary schools.  After several weeks of practising, the girls finally got to show off their talents on the vault and by performing a floor routine.  They were amazing and won gold in the overall school competition.  A huge well done to Peggy, Marcie, Amelia, Sofia and Jessica.  An extra special well done goes to Peggy who won gold in the individual floor routine and silver place overall and to Emilia who won individual  bronze in the vault. 

     

    Spelling Bee Competition
    Today Stanley, Ines and Henry from Year 6 have travelled to Manchester to compete against other Co-op Schools in a Spelling Bee. They were brilliant throughout, and although they didn’t win this time, they can all be very proud of their superb efforts, because we certainly are! 

     

    Bob Marley Singalong
    It was lovely to see many of you yesterday at our singalong. It was such a joyous half an hour with everyone getting in the spirit! The children were fantastic, showing a real love of music and some great dance moves. Thank you to Mrs Elkin and the choir for leading us!

     

    Time to Talk 
    It was also lovely to see so many Mums, Dads, Grannies and Grandads at our Time to Talk coffee and cake event before the singalong. Thank you to Mrs Hughes for organising and running the afternoon - it was a super opportunity for new families to build connections and our existing families to have a catch-up. #FriarswoodFamily 

     

    Time to Walk and Talk
    For Time to Talk Week, Mr Linley-Simon, our Academy Community Pioneer, organised a Walk and Talk in our local area, looking for the signs of new life now that spring is approaching. Thank you to everyone who joined him, and we hope you had a good chat whilst seeing what the new season has in store for us. 
     

    Have a lovely weekend everyone.

    Take care and stay safe.

    Mrs Wilmer
