🌟 Summer Term Headteacher's Awards 🌟

This morning, we were delighted to celebrate our Summer Term Headteacher’s Awards. These special awards recognise pupils who consistently demonstrate our Morley Meadow values and serve as outstanding role models for others. It was a pleasure to celebrate children who are ready, respectful and safe every day, showing kindness, determination, resilience and a positive attitude to learning. We are incredibly proud of all our award winners and the wonderful example they set for our school community.

Well done to each of them on this fantastic achievement!

Our brilliant Year 6s have had an excellent time away on residential this week. The children had fun, showed immense bravery, and most importantly, have created memories that will last a lifetime. ✨

We are incredibly excited to share our recent Ofsted report with you all as we are very proud of our whole school community here at Morley Meadow. ❤️

Ask. Aspire. Achieve! ✨

✨ Thank you to the Friends of Morley Meadow ✨

We are incredibly grateful to the parents who give a huge amount of time and effort planning, organising and running events like the summer fair yesterday afternoon - what a hit! Money raised goes directly back to supporting activities for the children in school.

If you think you could offer some time to support the Friends planning and events next year, give their page a follow and keep your eyes peeled for information about their meetings. 👀

First two in, last two out today!

Massive thank you from me and Karen - to all who helped us with the fair - from donations to manning stands, every minute, donation and gesture is appreciated.

Staff in school went above and beyond for us today and the allowance staff give us for creating chaos in their safe space will never be underestimated! The fair quite simply wouldn't be possible without them.

Our kids are all knackered - our feet are tired and our sanity is in tatters... but we are proud to be part of this little team raising money for our school 💙

Thank you -
Kelly & Karen

We are looking forward to seeing you at our Summer Fair this Friday but would really appreciate more volunteers to run the stalls so we can all enjoy this afternoon that the Friends of Morley Meadow have worked very hard to organise.

Sign up below!

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Our volunteer board is looking a little scarce and at this point some stalls wont be open for the entirety of the event THIS FRIDAY.

We'd hate for all of the effort from the PTA, parents, carers and teachers to go to waste... it all helps make the Friends of Morley Meadow charity money after all.

Please support us if you can! Comment below if you can volunteer and commit to a 30 minute time slot, even if you double with another parent this really helps us to cover more stalls.

National Thank a Teacher Day 2026!

What a great chance to celebrate our fantastic teachers, TAs and support staff at Morley Meadow and thank them for all their hard work today and every day.
