Dear parents and carers
We are delighted that Walkley Primary School will be one of only three schools in Sheffield, two-hundred nationwide, to benefit from Great British Energy’s first project; putting rooftop solar panels on schools and hospitals.
Having solar panels on our new school building is something we have sought since securing DFE Funding 10 years ago. Installation will commence soon, in the Spring term.
This exciting investment in the Walkley Primary School community will support our commitment to sustainability and reduce our energy costs, allowing more resources to be invested directly into enriching teaching and learning. The new solar panels will provide our pupils with real-life opportunities to learn about renewable energy, climate action and sustainability.
With our warm community spirit, we are committed to giving our children the very best start, supporting them to be Golden citizens empowered to make a difference in life.

This week (10 th – 14 th November) marks National Anti-Bullying week, with a theme this
year of ‘Power of Good’ and ‘Wear Odd Socks’ Day will be part of this week.
Odd Socks Day is designed to be fun! It’s an opportunity to encourage people to express
themselves and celebrate their individuality and what makes us all unique. There is no
pressure to wear the latest fashion or to buy expensive costumes. All you have to do to
take part is wear odd socks to school, it couldn’t be simpler.
Throughout this week, children will be having assemblies and taking part in activities
related to Anti Bullying Week with a specific link to our Walkley school values. This
morning’s assembly was about the power of push-ups and the dangers of push-downs.
Our children shared today that push-ups make them feel warm, proud, less self-
conscious, happy and respected, cared for, lucky, included and gave them a spark inside! A
great start to the week. Looking forward to seeing your socks on Wednesday.
