Lidget Green Primary School

Assessment week starts on October 20th and so far there have been a couple of slightly worried comments on the different blogs.

Just remember if you do your best you have nothing to worry about. Your teachers will only be disappointed with you if you don’t try your hardest and that is not likely to happen as Lidget Green pupils always try their best.

Welcome to all the new faces in Lidget Green, both children and adults.

Thanks for all your best wishes and flowers from staff. They have cheered me up lots.

It was lovely to pop in yesterday and see a few smiling faces, however I was really tired when I got home, I never realised how far it is from the car park to the staff room before I had to hop the whole way.

I will be popping or should I say hopping in again so if you see me, please give me a big smile.

PS Oyin, speak to Mrs Yoyo I have suggested to her how you might solve your pupilmail problem.

has broken her ankle.

Why don’t you send her a ‘get well’ comment here.

The new Children’s centre is being officially opened at lunchtime today by Cllr Paul Flowers. We will post photos on here of the event and the Open Day so that Parents who did not have chance to view it can see it for themselves.

School is closed on Voting Day - May 1st, but Year 6 are having a special Revision Day with a FREE breakfast and lunch.

Sorry everyone else, this is an exclusive Year 6 treat.

Stay safe and hope to see everyone back in school on Monday April 7th

 Parking on Birks Fold is still a concern although at the moment it is made worse by contractors parking on the road and parents and visitors parking illegally on yellow lines.   Our Chair of Governors, Councillor Paul Flowers has asked the council to review the playground provision and parking on Birks Fold at the same time as they consider increasing the size of the school from September 2009.  We have asked the council to provide new classrooms to take the extra children, increase the playground area and create an all weather play area and new parking bays with a turning circle for parents.  At the moment no funding has been allocated to this project as it is still in the consultation stage. 

 You will be pleased to know that the Children’s Centre is nearing completion with the contractors only on site for another 5 to 6 weeks.  Most of the internal work has now been completed which only leaves work to the front of the school to finish. This includes building the new entrance area and putting in new steps and pathway leading up to Birks Fold.  We will be having an open day so parents and people living and working in the area can look around the school and centre.  

 As the school has been closed parents have been unable to return parent’s evening appointment forms so we have cancelled the meetings for this week and instead they will be held Tuesday and Thursday next week.  If you have not returned the appointment form please return it as soon as possible.  For those who have returned the form the times will remain the same unless you inform school that you wish to change it.  Please contact school if you require another form.
