    After-school Clubs Update

    During this academic year, Southglade Primary School have organised an incredible 57 after-school clubs; these are all offered free of charge by our incredibly hard-working school staff.

    74% of children from y1-y6 have taken place in a school club after school which is an amazing figure.

    New letters have been sent out today with details of new school clubs that will be taking place in the final half-term.

     

    A massive thank-you to all of the staff who have organised a club this year and to Miss Finnie and Mrs Hampson who have been in charge of co-ordinating school club provision this year and ensuring that our school clubs are inclusive and accessible to all.

  • Year 4 Colwick Park Residential

    Wed 01 May 2019 Mr Pegram

    31 Y4 children enjoyed an exciting 24 hours at Colwick Park camping in tents under the stars. We were truly blessed with dry, warm weather during the day but cold and clear conditions at night.

    The children enjoyed sharing a tent with their tent partner, orienteering using maps to hunt for numbered locations and canoeing on the Colwick Lake. They were all really well behaved and respectful and did a great job of tidying up the camp this morning.

    A big thank-you to Mr Easton for organising the trip and also to Mrs Miller, Miss Fyfe and Mrs Finnie who supported the children brilliantly so that they all had a memorable 24hrs.

    Below are a few pictures- I am sure more information will be placed on the y4 blog in due course.
