A huge well done to Rebel and Rogue, who set up their own stall this weekend selling homemade buns and apples to raise money for Sheffield Children's Hospital NHS and Charity.

They raised an amazing £119 and were very proud of their efforts. Well done, both!

Celebrating Success

A huge well done to Wren for competing in her first British Ice Skating competition, the Cambridge Classic Free, and achieving a very respectable 10th-place finish.

Wren has shown great dedication to her sport over the past year, winning medals at Sheffield Ice Skating Club competitions both individually and as part of group performances.

She has also taken part in the Ice Sheffield Christmas show and travelled to Czechia to attend international skating camps.

To make the achievement even more special, this competition marks the start of an exciting new chapter, with opportunities to compete across the country and continue improving her personal best.

A brilliant achievement and we look forward to hearing about Wren’s future successes on the ice.

As we approach the summer holidays, we wanted to make families aware of the government's Summer Savings scheme, which brings together information on discounts and offers available across the UK during the summer break.

The website includes family attractions, cultural activities, meal offers and information about free bus travel for children aged 15 and under during August.

More information can be found here:

We hope this is a useful resource for our families as they plan for the summer holidays.
