First van filled….second van on the way from Darlington to collect the rest!

Thank you to everyone who contributed in any way to our recent collection on Sunday 12^th & Monday 13^th July 2020 – through delivering bags around our parish, collecting the filled bags or by donating items. Your help is very much appreciated.

We have had such a tremendous response, with donations also coming from villages outside of our parish, as a consequence of which a second van had to be sent out from Darlington to ensure all of the bags could be collected.

UPDATE: We can announce that the amount raised for the Great North Air Ambulance Collection in July 2020 was an amazing £355.60 for both our school and the Air Ambulance. Once again thank you to everyone who has supported this event. We would not be so successful without your help and assistance.

Head Teachers Update

Hello and welcome to the Headteacher’s update (10/06/2020).

Dear Parents and families,

It was lovely to speak to so many of you last week, during our catch up phone calls home. We really appreciate your support and hard work during these challenging times. We know that keeping motivation and enthusiasm for school work can be difficult, please don’t be too hard on yourselves or your children if some days, school work is just a step too far!!!

In a bid to make home learning a bit easier, we have put the most current work for children in a folder called ‘Summer Term June – July’.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any help with any aspect of the home learning, we are keen to help.
