In response to parental feedback, we have stepped back from issuing long newsletters, but we still need to have a platform to say 'Thanks' to the many people that support and help us, as without you all, we couldn't offer our students such a wonderful place to learn.

Mr and Mrs Dinghile for their generous donation of food tech items, we are fully kitted out and a whole class can take part at the same time with the multiple items give.

Autumn Gratitude

Bolton Turf and Landscapes: Thank you for your donation of the fake grass to our reception class. This addition has made the outside area for our early years students a lovely safe place to learn and play. 

RWB Builders: We are grateful for the fabulous work RWB put into our new food tech room. Making adjustments and offering great suggestions on the best options for our room will make the space suitable for many generations to come. Attention to detail has been first class and we recommend this local company. 

Asan Tu: We want to loudly say a big thanks to Asan for taking photos at our events and allowing us to use the images for free. We are soon to update our website pictures and couldn't do this without the talent and support so regularly shown by Asan. 

Mr and Mrs Mason: Thank you for your generous donation of a keyboard to the school. Your gift will allow students to take part in piano lessons using a great bit of kit that we could only dream of being able to afford. Our piano teacher, Mr Blackwell immediately put it into use and is awed by your kindness. 

Vanquish Fire: A local company, Vanquish Fire, helped us when we suddenly experienced some problems with our fire alarm. Being close by they helped us quickly and solved the problem. We are grateful for your speedy and professional response.

James Freeman at MJ Security: After a problem with a faulty sensor, we put a plea out to families to see if anyone could help us, we had a quick reply from a parent who talked us through some steps to take and solved the issue. We thank you for taking the time to support us and being knowledgeable enough to 'fix it' over the phone.
