• Head Teacher Awards

  Fri 07 Nov 2025 Mrs Bates

  Each week, we love to take time to celebrate the fantastic efforts and achievements of our children across the school.

   

  Our Headteacher Awards are a special way to recognise pupils who consistently demonstrate our Rainbow Values, follow the school rules, and make positive choices in their learning and behaviour.

   

  It’s always a highlight of the week to see children proudly sharing their work and talking about what they’ve achieved. Whether it’s showing kindness to others, trying their best in lessons, or going the extra mile to help around school, every child has the chance to shine.

   

  We are incredibly proud of how our children continue to do the right thing, support one another, and represent our school values so well. These celebrations remind us all that effort, respect and teamwork make our school such a wonderful place to learn.

   

  Thank you to all our children for their hard work and positive attitude — you make our school community special every single day!

• OPAL

  Fri 07 Nov 2025 Mrs Barrowcliffe

  It has been lovely to see many of the Reception children joining in Opal this week. Many children have loved seeing their siblings and exploring more of the school grounds. Children have also had great fun with the new fire engine built by Steve and the Barbers shop built by Freddie and Harriet's Dad. 

   

  Big Build Part 2 will take place on Tuesday 18th November from 1.00pm -3.30pm. We would love to get the castle and the water wall completed and would be very grateful if anyone could spare the time to come and help us again. Please message me and let me know if you are able to come and help. 

   

  If anyone has any old hair dryers, curling tongues, and other hair styling things that the children could use in the Barbers shop we would love to give them plenty to play with. We would also love donations of role play items for the fire engine and pirate ship. (We will cut plugs and cables off any electrical items.) Also if anyone has an old hose reel or one of those small hoses that we can add to the fire engine we would love to enhance the children's play. 

   

  Finally we are also on the look out for some bigger bikes for KS2 children to play with. If anyone is getting a new bike or scooter for Christmas please consider donating your old items to the children.

   

  Please look out for Opal updates in the newsletter sent out by the office. Many thanks,

   

  Mrs Barrowcliffe and the Opal team.

• Always Children

  Thu 06 Nov 2025 Mrs Bates

  I can't wait to spend the day with the 'Always Children' tomorrow. 

   

  It’s been wonderful to see the children return to school full of enthusiasm, ready to learn, and eager to show our Rainbow Values in everything they do. As always, we are incredibly proud of how our children follow the school rules, show kindness and respect, and do the right thing throughout the school week.

   

  We will continue to celebrate children who make positive choices, show great effort in their learning, and are wonderful role models for others. Our weekly and half-termly celebrations are a special way to recognise those who consistently go above and beyond — whether through showing perseverance, kindness, teamwork, or a fantastic attitude to learning.

   

  Well done to our 'Always Children' who will spend the afternoon with me tomorrow for a treat

  Well done, team! 👏

  

• Welcome back!

  Dear Parents, Carers and Children,

   

  Welcome back to the start of our Autumn Term 2! I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable half-term break and managed to spend some quality time with family and friends.

   

  As we move into the second half of the autumn term, there’s so much to look forward to. This is always a busy and exciting time of year in school, with new learning topics, creative projects, and preparations for our festive celebrations. The children have returned full of enthusiasm, ready to learn and take on new challenges, and it’s wonderful to see their energy and smiles around school once again.

   

  A big thank you to our staff for their continued hard work and commitment, and to our parents and carers for your ongoing support. Together, we’ll make sure this half term is filled with rich learning experiences, kindness, and success for every child.

   

  Let’s make this a fantastic half term full of learning, laughter, and community spirit!

• End of term

  Fri 17 Oct 2025 Mrs Bates

   

  Dear Parents and Carers,

   

  As we reach the end of a busy and fulfilling term, I’d like to take a moment to reflect on some of the highlights and achievements that have made this term so special.

   

  Our Harvest Festival Assembly was a memorable occasion.Reverend Denise shared thoughtful messages, reminding us all of the importance of gratitude and giving. We were overwhelmed by your generosity—thank you for the many donations to the local food bank, which will go a long way in supporting families in our community.

   

  We also celebrated a fantastic achievement in cross country running, with pupils showing great determination, teamwork, and sportsmanship. It was wonderful to see so many children taking part and giving their best—well done to everyone involved!

   

  Throughout the term, our pupils have shown incredible dedication and resilience in their learning. Their hard work has been matched by the support of our families, and we were especially pleased to see over 90% attendance at Parents’ Evening. Your engagement makes a real difference, and we are grateful for your continued partnership.

   

  As we head into the holidays, I want to thank you all—children, families, and staff—for your contributions to a successful term. I wish you a safe, restful, and joyful break, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back in the new term.

   

  Warmest wishes,
  Mrs Bates

• Cross Country Competition

  Thu 16 Oct 2025 Miss Dyer

  A HUGE well done to all of the children that took part in cross-country today!! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

   

  The children did brilliantly and gave each race their all. They represented Greasley with pride, and it was brilliant to see their enthusiasm and sportsmanship throughout the morning.

   

  The results….

   

  Year 5 girls - 2nd 🥈

  Year 6 girls - 1st 🥇

  Year 6 boys - 1st 🥇

   

  We are all SO proud of each and every child that took part, despite where they placed. It was a tough competition and there were lots of other schools, however their resilience truly shone through. They should be very proud of themselves! 👏

   

  Another big well done everyone - I can imagine that there will be some sore legs this evening! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

   

  Miss Dyer 😊
