  Hello Everyone

   

  Holiday Club/Childcare

  Hopefully you all received a letter regarding our new childcare provision for school holidays starting this February half term. Initially we are starting this for children aged 4-11 but, if successful, we will look at rolling this prevision out to younger age groups. Please see our school website or call our school office for more details.

   

  BOPZONE

  BOPZONE has been back this week with 15 new after school clubs offering over 300 places. We do still have some availability so please contact our school office if you would like to find another BOPZONE club for your child to attend.

   

  Y5&6 Futsal Tournament

  We entered a Futsal team into the district tournament this week and came a fantastic second place! This was mixed boy and girl team and they worked superbly together to achieve a great result. Well done! There is a Year 3&4 Futsal Tournament taking place next week.

   

  Y1 Multi-Skills Festival

  Year 1 travelled to Joseph Whitaker School this week for a Multi-Skills Festival—some of our children are pictured overcoming the balancing beams!. Their attitudes towards sports were excellent and we have some budding sports stars of the future in that group!

   

  IJump PE Sessions

  Next Tuesday we have IJump PE sessions taking place in school for Years 1-4 so please can you make sure children have their PE kits in school for that.

   

  Parent SEND Meeting

  Our next parents meeting for parents of children with additional needs is set for the next Thursday 31st January at 9am. This is an informal meeting to provide support networks, signpost to services and provide feedback to school on how we can better meet the needs of pupils with additional needs. All existing and new members are welcome. Please come to the school office.

  Happy New Year!

  I hope all of our Blidworth Oaks community had a great Christmas and New Year!

  We have flown straight into our new topics across school for this term. It was a good to see many of you at our learning carousels in Years 1-6 on the first day back to join in with launching our new topics. If you haven't received a copy of your child’s topic newsletter yet, then please see your child’s class teacher.

   

  Termly Learning Celebrations

  It was one of our best turn outs for our TLCs —despite some dodgy weather! Thank you to everyone who came along. If you haven't managed to get a TLC with your child’s class teacher yet, please contact the school office or your child’s teacher directly and we’ll get one arranged for you.

   

  Questionnaires

  Thank you to everyone who completed a questionnaire at the TLCs. The positive response on the questionnaires is quite simply overwhelming along with some excellent suggestions and ideas as well. We intend to analyse these over the next few weeks and we will hold our next Head Teacher Coffee Morning to discuss the questionnaire responses. If you haven't yet managed to complete a questionnaire, please call into our school office before next Friday 25th January.

   

  Sports

  Well done to the Y6 football team who were unfortunately knocked out of the second round of the cup last week. Leen Mills were excellent opposition but our children battled on with an outstanding performance from Louie in goal and Rey in midfield.

  We also sent a 16 person team along to a Sports Hall Athletics tournament this week. We didn't progress to the district finals but, despite a lack of training, our children put in some excellent performances, particularly in the sprint events. Well done all!

   

  Facebook

  You may already have seen our new school Facebook page—Blidworth Oaks Primary School. Please like our page as we will be developing this further in the coming weeks to celebrate some of the things happening in our school and to keep you informed of upcoming events.
