How wonderful it has been to have our lovely children back in school for their first day of the new year! Great to see lots of smiles and smart uniforms 😃

Here are Year 5, already full of concentration, learning about friendship, teamwork and collaboration.

Feel free to post your children's first day at school pictures below in the comments 📸

Let's celebrate the staff members that work tirelessly in our school kitchen, preparing lunches for our children. Mrs Harrison has led the team to an amazing 5 star food hygiene rating! Another 5 star rating to add to the collection. Thank you to Mrs Harrison and the team for their dedication and hard work.

A great write up about one of our talented pianists, Edward. He is mentioned by name in the article as he was the youngest performer in the competition. We are so proud!

Introducing Our New Latics Ambassador for 2026–2027! ⚽💙

We are delighted to announce that, for the 2026–2027 academic year, Dylan will be our new Latics Ambassador at St. Thomas’s C.E. Primary School, helping to strengthen our community links with Wigan Athletic.
Dylan is pictured here with Crusty the Pie and will be sharing the latest Latics news, as well as information about special ticket offers available to our school families.
Dylan and his family are proud season ticket holders at The Brick Community Stadium, and he has even had the fantastic experience of being a mascot for the club. With his passion for the Latics and his knowledge of the club, he is perfectly placed to keep our school community up to date with all things Wigan Athletic!
We are really looking forward to working with Dylan in his new role and strengthening our partnership with Wigan Athletic. Come on, you Latics! 💙⚽
