Weekly update 17012025

17 Jan 2025

We believe that our children should have the aspiration and opportunity to ‘Live life in all its fullness’ and ‘Shine like stars in the sky’.
 
New this week…
 
We would like to remind all parents that the school gates open at 840am and close at 850am. Children arriving in school after this time are marked as late on the register and it has a negative impact on their attendance record.

School Council Elections
Just a heads up that elections for our School Council will be held on Friday 31st January with canvassing during the week commencing 27th January (more information to follow next week).  Anyone from Y2 upwards is welcome to put themselves forward as a candidate.  Our current School Councillors will be on hand to talk to their peers about what the role entails next week (and they will be eligible to stand again for re-election should they wish to do so).
 
Save the Date!
Our next JAM Messy Church session will take place on Tuesday 4th February 3.30pm - 5pm.  Anyone who is enrolled in STEM club will receive a refund for the session that was scheduled for that date.  Look out for more information about how to sign up in due course.
 
Can you help?
As you know, each month school help out with the church service at St Nicholas Church.  The next opportunity will be on Sunday 26th January at 9.15am.  If your child(ren) would like to take part, please let Miss Mandelson know at senco@west-tanfield.n-yorks.sch.uk.
