Happy Easter!

Thank you to FOBBINS for organising a wonderful Easter Bonnet Parade this year. The creations were quite wonderful! There was a great turn out from parents and all the children had worked really hard on their bonnets. We ended with a 'Spring Chicken' sing song.
Happy Easter everyone!

Here are some of our Easter Bonnet winners.

Fairtrade Bake Sale

I would just like to say a huge thank you to all of the parents who baked buns, scones and cakes to sell at Crystal Peaks for the fair trade bake sale.  They went down a treat with the customers.  Our two Beighton Bees, Lily Platts and Angelo Puchi worked very hard selling the products and they did our school very proud! Well done you two. 



We also saw Mr. Ford who came and bought a bun.

Fairtrade Day

Cake Anyone?

On Thursday 25th February we will be joining the other schools within the Westfield Family of Schools for a cake sale at Crystal Peaks. 
All items sold will be made with Fair Trade produce and we are hoping there may be some budding bakers among you, as donations will be gratefully received!
The money we raise from the sale will be used to fund activities within the family of schools. The cake sale starts at 10.00am and ends at 2.00pm and the stall will be in the area at the top of the escalators. Two children from our school have been chosen to run the stall between 11 and 11.45am.
We will be also learning about and participating in, activities and discussions about Fair Trade in school. If you have any food packaging that has the Fair Trade logo on it we would be very grateful if you would send it into school.

Thank you in advance for your support and we look forward to seeing you at the Cake Sale.

Y6 Brook House Buddies

Every day we have a group of Year 6 children from Brook House that join us at lunchtime. The older children are great role models for our younger children and the infants really enjoy it.  The Year 6 children support with play activities, read with our children and enjoy helping out in the dining room.

Thank you Brook House Buddies, keep up the good work!

Christmas Party Day

It's Christmas Party Day here at Beighton. We have played lots of games, eaten lots of treats AND we've even had a special visitor!
Santa came to visit our Grotto and kindly brought every child a gift. He must have heard that our children have been very good this year.

Merry Christmas everyone and have a lovely holiday!

A Big 'Thank You'


Dear Parent/Carer,

My name is Danny Baker and I volunteer at the Gleadless Valley Foodbank.
I wanted to take time to say ‘Thanks a Million’ for all your gifts that I collected on Friday.
Eleven families have already benefited and toys have been sent to Father Christmas ready for his special delivery - many more will benefit over the next couple of weeks too.
Here at Foodbank we couldn’t believe the generosity of your school, you are all brilliant!

Hope you have a great Christmas everyone!
Thanks again,


Danny 

These are just some of your gifts, WOW!
