• Jessie's House - Zimbabwe. Our Toilet Twinning Venture

  Mon 22 Jan 2018 Mr Wallis

  During the October Harvest 2017, we raised £304.35 for the Toilet Twinning project. Your generous donations raised enough money to twin our toilets with a toilet block, built to provide a safe, sanitised facility for a community in desperate need of our support. We are delighted to be able to give you details of this incredible venture:

   

  Jessie' House, Zimbabwe is a project which aims to give better life chances and permanent educational opportunities for orphans and children at risk in Muzondo village, Zimbabwe. Muzondo village has a population of 4,100. It has a high number of child-headed families, mainly due to HIV/AIDS and political and economic instability. The village has very poor infrastructure with no schools and only one small clinic. 

   

  The centre (Jessie's House) aims to establish a primary school within the next 4 years; beginning with a Day Care Centre which opened in 2016. The centre provides basic nutrition, medical care and preschool education, for children 6 years and under in addition to a new water supply which serves the entire community.

   

  The centre is named after Jessica Smith, who passed away in 2007, aged just 22. Jessica had previously visited Zimbabwe and was deeply inspired by the spirit of the people and the need that she saw there. It was her greatest desire to do something to make a difference for the people she had grown to love.

   

  Zimbabwe is facing its worst malnutrition rates in 15 years and Muzondo is one of the rural areas in a state of disaster. Jessie's House is currently providing a feeding programme to over 70 children.

   

  Now, with our support, the centre will receive funding to build a toilet block (forever twinned with Walkley Primary School) which will greatly enhance the centre, ready for its growth into the vision inspired by Jessica Smith.

   

  We will of course update you on the venture as we establish links with the Muzondo community and our support of Jessie's House.

   

  Many thanks.

• CENSUS - Thursday 18th January is NO PACKED LUNCH DAY in EYFS and KS1

  Fri 12 Jan 2018 Mr Wallis

  On Thursday 18^th January we will be holding a no packed lunch day and ask that all children purchase a school meal where possible. On 12^th October we held a similar day with 100% of pupils receiving a school dinner. We thank you for your magnificent support in this endeavour.

  The reason for this request is that for each child recorded as having a school meal on this day the school will receive vital funding that is required to support your child’s development at school.

  Here is the special census menu for next Thursday:

  

• Y6s Off To Crucial Crew on Friday

  Thu 11 Jan 2018 Mr Wallis
  A reminder to Y6 parents that Y6 pupils are going to Crucial Crew at the Magna Centre tomorrow morning. You will need to be at school a little earlier, so as to register and be on the coach for 8.50am. It should be an excellent day.
