PE T-shirts 2020

9th September 2020A Stelling

This is only for current Y3, Y4, Y5 and Y6 pupils.
(Key Stage Two Children)

We encourage children in KS2 to wear their house colour t-shirt for PE lessons. Your child will know which house they are in and should be able to tell you the colour their house wears.

Wouldhave – Blue
Kirkpatrick – Green
Armstrong – Yellow
Redhead – Red

We do sell the school t-shirt with the school name on for £3.50. Due to Covid-19 we were unsure if we would be able to provide this service this year but our provider has offered us a window of opportunity to order. If you prefer, you can buy your own t-shirt of the same colour; it must be plain and have no writing or logos. (Football shirts are not allowed.)

Children generally only require one t-shirt for the whole academic year.

All orders must be placed by Friday 18th September. We are unable to accept late orders processed.

To order please follow these instructions: 

  1. Use the Google Form to order your t-shirt. Please click here to order your t-shirt
  2. Pay for your t-shirt by sending the correct cash into school in a clearly marked envelope with your child’s name and class. Please send the correct money as we will be unable to send change.

This will then be crossed matched with your order form. Only t-shirts which are paid for will be ordered.

Sadly, we are unable to use Parent Pay this year but hopefully will be able to next year.

We have tried to keep the ordering process as simple as possible. This is the first year we have attempted to do it digitally, so please be patient.

We are hoping for a quick turn around of orders from our supplier.

Any queries regarding t-shirts please contact Mrs Stelling.

Please click here to order your t-shirt

EYFS Key Workers’ Bubble- Final Week

17th July 2020A Stelling
A big change for the group this week. Three upper key stage 2 staff ventured down to look after the group, along with Mrs Coldwell, and had a lovely week. The theme was summer holidays and the seaside with the children travelling on the plane to go to a destination of their choice. We travelled everywhere from gran’s house to South Africa!
Plenty of stories, number work, baking, art work, cutting, sticking and probably the groups favourite activity – playing with their own pot of playdoh! Our last day together was spent doing sports day which the children were brilliant with and watching a movie with an ice lolly.
All of the children were an absolute joy to be with and even though the staff were very weary by the end of the week, they all had a fantastic time.
