Dear Parents/Carers,
Another successful year-I think! Thank you all for your overwhelming support and loyalty towards our school.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my fantastic governors who play a terrific part in school life and are wonderfully dedicated to our school.
Many thanks to my wonderful staff who are the best! Also, thanks to our amazing pupils, I am always humbled by their commitment and passion towards the school and how great they are at coming up with ideas to move the school forward. I hear great things about the reputation of the school and that is because we are a united team with so much support.
Below I list some of the achievements this year but there have been many more!
• Extension to front of school, providing new library, staff room, SEN room, new offices and a more attractive and accessible front entrance
•A successful lottery bid to build a mountain bike track and purchase some bikes (due to start in Sept)
•Climbing Wall created
•New Report format devised
•ICT Quality Mark achieved
•Two superb Junior Performing Arts Productions and a marvellous Infant Performing Arts Production
•An amazing sports week + other creative weeks throughout the year
•Brilliant team work from our PTA who have continued to raise a lot of money and put on terrific events
•STA’S 4 ALL continues on a monthly basis and even featured a live donkey at Easter!
•We have secured 15 Dual Boot Apple Macs for the suite in Sept-we are being used as a pilot school so will not pay for the installation of these machines
•Group of children created another Wake Up Shake Up DVD which went to every school in the LA
•All the children have received First Aid Training-one child featured on Look North West because of the skills she had used to save her brother (skills she had learnt at St Aidan’s)
We look forward to the challenges ahead and we are sure there will be many. I wish Mrs Moore all the best, I know she will be an amazing ‘temporary’ Head Teacher. Please give her your support. I look forward to my return in January.
Warmest Regards,
Melanie Ravenscroft
Head teacher
