Thank you to everyone who donated to our Harvest Festival, your generosity and kindness is hugely appreciated.
This year your donations went to the Rushcliffe Foodbank (Project of Sewa Day Nottingham), which is staffed by volunteers to help support people within the Rushcliffe area who are having difficulties with ensuring they have enough to eat. Three of our children helped pack all of your donations up and helped Becky, one of their amazing volunteers, fill up her car!

We’re delighted to invite families to join us for our first Open Evening of the new academic year!

Thursday 10th September at 6:00pm

Come along, have a look around our classrooms, meet our wonderful team and find out more about life at our school.

Everyone is welcome!

Our Open Evening is particularly aimed at families who are beginning to think about their child’s next step for September 2027.

• Reception 2027 •

If your child was born between:
1st September 2022 – 31st August 2023

then they will normally be starting Reception in September 2027.

• Nursery 2027 •

We’d also love to welcome families who are considering a nursery place for September 2027, for children who will be 3 years old by 31st August 2027.

Whether you’re looking at nursery places or beginning to explore Reception options, our Open Evening is a lovely opportunity to come and see our school, meet us, ask questions and get a feel for what makes our school such a special place to learn, grow and belong. ✨

We can’t wait to meet you!

Come along — we’d love to show you around! 💙

If you can’t make this date then others will be happening during this term. If they don’t work then get in touch and we will arrange a different time for you!

Incredibly proud of these two and all the children at school who work so hard to make a difference to those in need. Social Citizenship in action!

🌟 Happy International Youth Day! 🌟

✨ Welcome Maggie and Ciara! ✨

We're delighted to introduce our new Youth Ambassadors, Maggie and Ciara from Brookside Primary School.

Usually we appoint one Youth Ambassador each year, but after seeing their fundraising efforts, passion for helping others and commitment to their community, we simply couldn't choose between them!

The dynamic duo have already shown what amazing young people can achieve when they put their minds to something. In fact, Maggie has already kicked off their ambassador year by swimming across Rutland Water. What a superstar! 🏊‍♀️

We can't wait to see what Maggie and Ciara achieve over the next 12 months, and our Community Fundraiser Loren is especially excited to have two new sidekicks by her side. 🧡

Please join us in welcoming Maggie and Ciara to their new roles!
