Competition Entries

Wow! Look at these amazing entires we’ve had for our ‘name the room’ competition! You’ve produced some amazing writing and artwork, as well as fascinating facts about each animal. Our next task…. pick a winner!!

 

Name the Room Competition!

The rain has inspired me to launch a competition! Maybe it’s too rainy take the kids far this weekend so they can get started on this to keep them busy!

Jaguar class are moving across the hall, so we want to re-name their old room! That’s where you come in – which animal should we name the room after? See poster for competition details!

 

Parent/carer volunteers wanted for September

We would love to welcome parents/carers/grandparents into school to volunteer in class. We used to have more regular helpers before Covid, and would really like to build this back up again.

It can be really rewarding spending an hour or so with young children. Perhaps you could spare some time for: hearing readers, changing reading books, an art or DT afternoon, forest school, a computing lesson, a PE lesson.

You don’t need to have any skills or qualifications to help – the only thing you we would need to do is volunteers DBS check.

If you think you could make a commitment to come in once a week, or once a fortnight, please come to the office and us know. You will need to bring one piece of photo ID and two proofs of address to get the DBS.

Many thanks – we look forward to welcoming you into school!

Staffing news

Dear all,

We would like to share some news with you about a valued member of our team.

At the end of this academic year, Mrs McGrath, our Panda Class teacher, will be leaving us to take up a new role closer to her home in Wales.

While we are, of course, very sad to see her go, we fully support her decision and are delighted that she has this exciting opportunity ahead. Mrs McGrath has been an integral part of our school community for the past eight years, during which time she has shown care and commitment to the children and families she has worked with. She will be greatly missed by both staff and children alike.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Mrs McGrath for all of her hard work and contribution to our school over the years, and we wish her every success and happiness in her new role.

At this time, we don’t have any information about who will be teaching the classes next year, but as promised, we will let you know after half term or when we get further information.

Many thanks, Mrs McVey

SCHOOL CLOSURE FRIDAY 9th JANUARY 2026 DUE TO ADVERSE WEATHER

Dear  parents and carers,
SCHOOL CLOSURE FRIDAY 9th JANUARY 2026 DUE TO ADVERSE WEATHER
Following the Corbet School announcing their closure tomorrow, and the advice from the highways not to drive after early evening tonight, we have made the decision to close the school tomorrow. The majority of our staff live in Wales, border villages or have to use single track roads to get to school. Even if the snow turns out to be less than expected, many of these would still struggle to attend. Our priority is the safety of our staff and pupils.
I have made this decision early to give you more opportunity to plan for the closure.
Thank you for your understanding.

New Governors – welcome

We are pleased to announce that the successful candidate from the recent parent governor election was Juliette McGill.

We also had an application from Roxanne Joinson to become one of our church foundation governors and this has been approved by the diocese.

We welcome Juliette and Roxanne to the team.

You can find out more about our federation governing board here.

Church and Harvest

Dear all,

We are moving our weekly worship with Rev. Clayton to Tuesdays starting next week. This is due to 3 classes now having music lessons on Thursdays.

In line with this change, our Harvest Festival will be on Tuesday 7th October 9:30 at the church. Please join us if you are able. We would be very grateful for donations of food, packets, tins, cereal, pasta, toiletries for our harvest collection to give to families in need.

Many thanks
