Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.

• Anti-bullying day

  Sun 17 Nov 2019 RWilmot

  Pupils spent time to think about others on Friday, including ways to stamp out bullying by realising that 'change starts with us'.

  Pupils shared their thoughts and pledged to help others by making sure they set the right example.

  Bullying is not acceptable - from children or adults - and our council members spent time to complete a questionnaire with all classes to canvass opinion. This work will be completed over the next few weeks. Look out for our displays in school. 

• Christmas is coming..!

  Sun 17 Nov 2019 RWilmot

  Don't forget it's Snowflake Fayre on Monday 25th November.

  It's 20p to enter per person (up to a maximum of £1 per family) and we have many stalls and games for you to experience. If you need a break, head for our lovely cafe or take a pit-stop at the hotdog stall. Plenty of fun and Christmas ideas for gifts, as well as our famous raffle. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. We hope to see many of you there.

• Children In Need

  Sun 17 Nov 2019 RWilmot
  Thank you to every one - pupils and families- who contributed to our fund raising event for Children In Need. Despite the weather, pupils changed into their pyjamas to raise money, the first time many were teamed with wellies!. Many children bought Mrs Mozley's yummy cookies at break and spent time to buy raffle tickets and loom band products. It was a great atmosphere - providing a much needed lift from the grey damp day. Well done.

• Weather Update!

  Thu 14 Nov 2019 RWilmot

  Based on current advice and information, Harrington Junior school will be open for pupils who can travel to school safely

  Wellingtons are advised. Please bring an extra pair of socks and shoes to wear indoors.

  Pupils should come in school uniform and bring their pyjamas to change into once they have arrived.

  Year 5 swimming is cancelled - pupils should arrive at school for 9:00 a.m.

   

  All pupils should arrive at 9:00 a.m, no earlier please. This is to allow access directly into classrooms and avoid a playground with standing water. The exception is those children attending Panda Club.

   

  If there is any major change due to the flooding, we will send an update via the Dojo or website.

• Cross Country

  Thu 17 Oct 2019 RWilmot
  Well done to all pupils who participated in the cross country event today. Many schools took part and our pupils did a great job - with many of them asking to sign up for next year's event and even requesting some pre-season training! Their enthusiasm was a credit to the school.

• Safeguarding

  Thu 17 Oct 2019 RWilmot

  Polite reminder:

  Please do not use the school drive to access the campus, to drop off pupils or to park on. One parent nearly reversed into children and parents walking to school today. 

  If you are using the area at the end of the drive, please park sensibly to allow cars to move into the area and exit it - please do not block access routes or park on double yellow lines.

   

  Please see the latest safeguarding letter in the newsletter section- there has been a suspicious car reported. This was not during the school day or at home time but later in the evening. 

• Christmas is coming!

  Wed 16 Oct 2019 RWilmot
  Anyone who is willing to donate a prize or items for our Christmas tombola can bring them to our collection box in the school foyer. Any items will be gratefully received and used at Snowflake Fayre - only 5 weeks to go!

• Meet the author

  Wed 16 Oct 2019 RWilmot
  Mrs Domkowicz led the Year 5 children and staff to Trent College to meet the author, Will Mabbitt on Tuesday. Will gave a very interesting and fun presentation, engaging our pupils to think about how to write and become an author, including the importance of the drafting process. He read from his picture book, 'I Can Only Draw Worms' before speaking about his character, Mable Jones who features in this series of action stories.

• Harvest gifts

  Wed 16 Oct 2019 RWilmot

  Anyone willing to donate a food gift for our harvest table can do so by bringing tinned food, vegetables, rice, pasta or biscuits to the school hall from tomorrow (Thursday 17th). Our harvest festival will take place on Monday 21st October.

  Thanking you in anticipation.

• Year3/4 football succes

  Wed 16 Oct 2019 RWilmot
  Mrs Clarke, our resident football manager, took the Year 3/4 team to play in a local tournament at Friesland School on Tuesday. Well done to all the players - 100% wins until our final match, losing by just one goal. All the players did us proud - and achieved a very noble 2nd place!
