  • Sports Day fun​​​​​​​

    Published 28/06/24

    This week saw the remaining of our Sports Days taking place, after Nursery and Reception's successful events last week. Due to the increasing size of the school, we decided to host Sports Days for Years 1 and 2, Years 3 and 4, and Years 5 and 6, to ensure the field does not become overcrowded and the children can participate as much as possible.

    Each of the events were well attended and the 'finals' races definitely brought some tension and excitement!

    Thank you for your ongoing support and a big thank you to the staff for their hard work and organisation to make them possible.

  • Rugby at Leicester Tigers and Football Cup runners up

    Published 21/06/24

    Some of our Phase 3 children were lucky enough to visit the stadium of Leicester Tigers and take part in their Tag Rugby Summer Sports Series. The children had an excellent afternoon and showcased lots of high-quality ball handling and passing skills. Well done everyone!

    Also this week, our boys football team took part in the Parry Cup final at Worksop Town's ground against Norbridge Primary Academy. On a gloriously sunny afternoon, the boys representing Ordsall Primary School played extremely well and showed lots of energy, skill and determination. Unfortunately, despite having opportunities to win the game, the boys ended up on the wrong side of a 1-0 result. Unlucky boys - keep your heads held high for the performance you all gave!

  • Maker School

    Published 15/06/24

    This week, we have had the lovely people from Sheffield University that deliver the Maker School programme in school to showcase this to some of the children and deliver some training to staff. We are in the process of developing this in school to deliver ready for September. Further information about the Maker School programme can be found here.

    I would also like to give a huge congratulations to the children in Years 1 and 2 and that took part in the Phonics Screening Check this week. From speaking with the class teachers, I know the children showed great determination and resilience and approached the check with enthusiasm - well done children!

    Lastly, I was lucky enough to accompany some of our Year 5 children to a cricket festival at Blyth Cricket Club on Monday. The children showed some great catching, bowling and batting skills and had a fantastic day!
