Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.

• General Election Closure

  Thu 05 Dec 2019 Mrs D Colley
  A reminder that school is closed on Thursday 12th December because school is used as a polling station for the General Election. Sorry for the inconvenience. We will be open as usual on Friday 13th December. 

• Police Warning - Unico Live Smartphone App

  Thu 05 Dec 2019 Message from PC Chris Thompson , Young People's Officer, West Midlands Police

  West Midlands Police has been made aware of a smartphone app called 'UNICO LIVE' (see below for picture).  

  The app is publicised as age restricted 12+ and designed for young people to upload videos of them performing, singing and dancing etc.

  It has come to our attention that there is inappropriate content on the platform involving young people which is being investigated.

  The content does not appear to be monitored and we urge you to raise awareness widely to increase vigilance and reduce the likelihood of any child being sexually exploited.

  

• Safe Parking

  Mon 18 Nov 2019

  We have received comments from concerned parents and neighbours about unsafe parking at the end of the day on Trimpley Road and Lutley Grove. Please be considerate of other road users, and particularly children and parents that are walking home and trying to cross the roads. Do not park on yellow lines, zig zags or on corners and bends. This reduces visibility and increases the chance of an accident. 

  It would be dreadful if someone was injured in an accident caused by thoughtless and unsafe parking. 

  Thank you. 

   

• Children in Need Fundraising Success

  Mon 18 Nov 2019 Mrs D Colley
  Thank you to our Yr 6 pupils for organising and running  a day of fun and to all other children that brought in money to take part in the games. We raised an amazing £424.20p for Children in Need. Well done Woodgate!

• General Election - Thursday 12th December

  Fri 08 Nov 2019 Mrs D Colley
  We have been informed that school will be used as a polling station for the General Election on Thursday 12th December. This means that school will be closed to pupils on that day. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. We will make sure that the children do not miss out on any of the planned Christmas activities. 

• Parent Consultations

  Fri 08 Nov 2019 Mrs D Colley
  Thank you to all parents that attended a meeting with the teacher on Wednesday. It was good to see so many of you leaving with smiles on your faces after hearing such good things about your children and their learning. If you haven't yet seen the teacher please make an appointment for a mutually convenient time.  We would like meet with all parents. Thank you to those of you that completed the Parentview  questionnaire. The results are overwhelmingly positive. They can be seen in full in the parents section of the website. 

• Halloween Disco Success.

  Thu 24 Oct 2019 Mrs D Colley
  250 children enjoyed the annual Halloween Disco yesterday. Dancing, games, costumes and face paint all collided for a very enjoyable time. I think the sweets and pop helped too! All profits from the disco will go into school fund and be spent on the children.  Thank You to all of the staff that gave their own time to stay late and support the disco. Same time next year?

• THANK YOU!!

  Thu 24 Oct 2019 Mrs D Colley
  A huge thank you to everyone that wore red last week and helped us to stand up to racism. We raised £278 for the charity and more importantly held some very good conversations in school about racism, tolerance and respect.

• Show Racism the Red Card

  Thu 10 Oct 2019 Mrs D Colley

  Next Friday, 18th October,  please allow your child to dress in red for this worthwhile cause. We will be talking about respect and tolerance for others and about how racist language and behaviour is never acceptable.

  A £1 donation to the charity will be  much appreciated.  Thank You.

• Harvest Contributions needed.

  Thu 10 Oct 2019 Mrs D Colley

  We would welcome any contributions of tinned and packet foods for our Harvest Collection next week. All of our collection goes to St. Michael's Food Bank and is given out to the families in our own community that may need a little extra help from time to time.

  Please send any donations into school with your child next week.

  Thank You.
