Our Nursery and Reception children had a 'ball' today to celebrate the end of their topic 'Once Upon a Time'. We have done some ballroom dancing, eaten buns and had a royal time!

Well done to our before and after school provider Bee'z Nee'z for a fantastic Ofsted report. We are so proud of you all. facebook.com/share/p/1ZbF4C…

Last Monday, some Year 4 girls went to an introduction to football session with other school from Royton. We did lots of football skills sessions and finished the evening with a few friendly matches. The girls had lots of fun! #footballforgirls @oldhamssp

Last week our school netball team had a busy two days. We had round 3 of our netball league, which saw us have two big wins! The night after we entered the Hathershaw netball cluster tournament and had three big wins to finish first. We are super proud of this team.

This week Nursery and Reception have walked to the postbox to post our letters to Father Christmas. We wonder if Father Christmas will write back!

This week some children from KS2 went to the finals of the Sportshall Athletics. 24 schools entered the competition and both our teams got through to the finals to compete against the top 7 schools. On Tuesday the Year 3+4 team came 1st and tonight our Year 5+6 team came third.

It is our Christmas Fair tomorrow 3.30-5.00. We have some great stalls, chocolate and bottle tombola's, a café serving hot and cold drinks and snacks and a raffle with some great prizes. We are looking forward to seeing everyone.

Mrs Fernandez was thrilled when she saw this wonderful piece of artwork created over the half term as part of the Autumn Art Challenge. She cannot wait to see what other pieces of artwork will be brought into school over the next half term!

Does anyone know of a company who can supply us with a real Christmas tree and then take it away on the 20th December. Suggestions please... #christmas

Don't forget it is our non-uniform day tomorrow in exchange for some sweets...
