What a fantastic first day for our Year 5 children at YHA Malham!

The children have embraced the adventure from the very beginning, heading out on a beautiful walk to Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar.

This evening, the children had the challenge of starting a fire… in the rain! 🔥🌧️ It certainly wasn’t easy, but they persevered and eventually managed to get it going.

After all that excitement, it was time to get cosy and listen to a story read by Mrs Hill. 📖✨

The children are now looking forward to a morning full of activities tomorrow.

For now, we’re hoping they manage to get a good night’s sleep… although we’re not holding our breath! 😴😂

A brilliant first day of adventure, laughter and memories! 🌟

🏡🎒ATTENDANCE UPDATE 🎒 🏡

We’ve seen a big improvement in attendance across all year groups since returning in September. Thank you to our families for supporting this.

Every day in school counts. Excellent attendance isn't just about learning and keeping up with the curriculum—it's essential for building strong friendships, developing confidence, and feeling a true sense of belonging in our school community.

Today we have emailed families our latest Attendance Newsletter along with information from City of York Council. Please take a moment to read through the information.

As always, we are here to support in any way we can. If your child is struggling with morning routines, experiencing school avoidance, navigating friendship issues, or facing challenges with sleep, bedtime routines, regular illness or personal family circumstances - please reach out to us.

Our Attendance Policy can be found here:https://www.westfieldprimary.co.uk/sites/default/files/uploads/media/files/attendance-policy-march-2029.pdf

Thank you for your continued support

🦣 BACK TO THE STONE AGE IN YEAR 3 🦣

On Wednesday, our Year 3 children came to school dressed in an array of Stone Age costumes and immersed themselves in hands-on activities to inspire and further their learning.

The children wrote and performed poetry, explored textures and techniques to create woolly mammoths, created cave paintings inspired by Stone Age hunter-gatherers and put the finishing touches to their Stonehenge models.

Ask us why the woolly mammoths became extinct...we are experts now! 🦣

🩵⭐️ SCHOOL'S OUT! ⭐️🩵

As we wave goodbye for the summer, we want to say a massive congratulations and farewell to our wonderful Year 6 children. You have truly been an incredible year group, and we are so proud of the resilience, kindness, and individuality you have shown. We will miss you all, but we know you are going to absolutely shine as you transition to secondary school. Go and make us proud!

Today, we also say a very fond farewell to some of our brilliant staff members who are moving on to new chapters. No words can express our grattitude for your endless love, care, and commitment to our children and community. You will be missed terribly, and we wish you the very best of luck in your next adventures.

To all of our families, thank you for your incredible support throughout the year. Have a safe, happy, and restful summer break, and enjoy spending time together. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in September.

☂️🎤SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS 🎤☂️

A massive congratulations to our incredible Year 6 children on two truly spectacular performances of Mary Poppins!

Every child contributed to this production—whether they were shining under the spotlight, managing the technical desk, assisting with the stage support or designing the scenery - it really was a true team effort.

A huge thank you goes out to all the staff involved. Putting together a production of this scale is no small task. The hours spent behind the scenes resulted in a show that was “practically perfect in every way!”

⚽🏆 YORK CITY TROPHY VISIT🏆⚽

We may not have got the result we had hoped for in the World Cup match last night, but our football fans certainly had a reason to smile today.

We were incredibly lucky to have a visit from York City Football Club with the National League Trophy. Our children had the opportunity to hold the cup, snap some photos, and celebrate the incredible success of our local team.

York City Football Club Foundation has plenty to keep the children active over the summer break. Details of their summer courses, KickAbouts and City Wildcats in the Park sessions are available on thier page. Have a look and get involved!

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ⚽ IT’S COMING HOME...TO THE CLASSROOMS! ⚽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

We know so many parents are facing the dilemma with the big England match late on Sunday night: "Do we let them stay up?" "Do we face the Monday morning meltdown?" We’ve got you covered! Here is our plan so the children don't miss out on the excitement:

We are inviting all children to watch the match replay right here at school with their friends.

⏰ Drop-off: School starts at the normal time
🎬 Kick-off: We’ll be showing the game from 9:00am
👕 What to wear: Football shirts or sportswear, if they wish
🎨 Not a football fan? No problem at all! For those children who don't fancy watching the match, we have plenty of crafts and games for them.

We are really excited to share this with the children. So early nights and we'll handle Monday morning! Let's hope for an England win!
