A Little Reminder – After School Pick-Up 

A gentle reminder to all parents and carers to please leave the school grounds promptly after collecting your children at the end of the day.
We need to ensure that our school gates are locked by 3:20pm, as we have after-school sports clubs taking place and Little Angels using the school grounds.
Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation in helping us keep everyone safe.
We really appreciate your support.

School Photographs – Monday 16th November

Tempest Photography will be visiting school on Monday 16th November to take individual and sibling photographs.

If you have younger siblings who do not yet attend school and would like them to be included in a sibling photograph, please bring them to the school reception at 8:45am.

Many thanks

💛 Children in Need 2026 – Challenge Yourself! 💛

This year, Myddle CE Primary School is excited to support BBC Children in Need 2026, and we’re getting ready to join schools across the country for a fun-filled day of fundraising!

This year’s campaign is “Challenge Yourself 2026”, encouraging everyone to take on a challenge inspired by the number 26, all while raising money to make a difference to children and young people across the UK. 🌟

Throughout the week, we’ll be encouraging our Myddle children to embrace the spirit of the campaign, have fun, work together and discover what they can achieve when they challenge themselves!

And who knows… we may even have a very special visitor popping into Myddle! Keep your eyes peeled for Pudsey Bear himself! 🐻💛

🐻 Friday 13th November – Non-Uniform Day!

On Friday 13th November, children are invited to come to school wearing their own clothes, something spotty or their favourite Pudsey-themed clothing and accessories, in return for a small donation to Children in Need.

💛 Why are we fundraising?

BBC Children in Need helps ensure that children and young people across the UK have someone by their side when they need it most.

Money raised helps fund vital projects that:

  • 💛 Support children’s mental health and emotional wellbeing.
  • 🌈 Provide safe, welcoming spaces where children feel supported.
  • 🏡 Help families facing poverty or difficult circumstances.
  • ⭐ Give children opportunities to build confidence, develop new skills and enjoy new experiences.

At Myddle, we know that a little kindness can make a big difference, and we’re incredibly proud to play our part in supporting such a wonderful cause.

Thank you, as always, to our fantastic Myddle families for your kindness and generosity. Together, we can help make brighter futures possible for children who need our support. 💛
