🐬The BIG Oulton Quiz Of The Year 2026🐬
Yesterday morning, the whole school gathered in their house teams to battle it out in The BIG Oulton Quiz Of The Year 2026, hosted by Miss Brown.
Our leaving staff, Miss White, Miss Johnson, Miss Harden, Mrs Ellis, Mr Dehdashty and Mr James took part as our experts and, alongside the year group captains, used their knowledge of History, Science, Art, Literacy, PE and Computing to try and lead their house to victory. Miss Barrett, who now begins her maternity leave, took on the Bonus Round where she had the tricky job of matching staff to their baby photos. After some close quizzing, Cockcroft were crowned 2026 champions!
At the end of the quiz, Miss Brown was surprised by an extra round that had been secretly slipped into the quiz which was then followed by a Take That themed leaving video, celebrating her and all the other staff whose Oulton journey came to an end yesterday.
As is the Oulton way, LOTS of fun and silliness was had by everyone and it was a fantastic way to end the year as a school family.
We want to take this opportunity to thank our leaving staff for their immense hard work and dedication to our school and wish them the very best of luck in whatever comes next. We can’t wait to hear about their new adventures.
Finally, the whole staff would like to thank our families for all the generous gifts and kind words that have been shared over the last few days - these are never expected but always hugely appreciated. But, most of all, we want to thank you for the absolute privilege of working with your children and allowing us to be part of their primary school journey.
Happy Summer, Oulton!
