Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
In this afternoon's assembly, the Y3 pupils and Walkley's new staff were sorted into one of Walkley's four houses:
Loxley
Rivelin
Sheaf
Porter
Thanks to the Sorting Hat, pupils and staff can now contribute to the success of their chosen house. House points are collected and collated on a Friday and the winning team is announced in the KS2 Golden Award Assembly on Friday afternoons.
Walkley are very pleased to inform you that on the morning of 21st September we will be hosting a famous athlete. Her name is Beth Dobbin and she currently holds the British record for the women’s 200m sprint! On this morning, she will be spending time with each class and doing some exercise. Then, she will do a whole school assembly informing the children about herself, her experiences and how to lead a healthy lifestyle.
During the morning, Beth will be conducting 4 different exercises with the children to see how many of each exercise they can do in 1 minute. A sponsor form is attached for you to fill out and help raise money for these exercises. Beth’s aim is to inspire and give tips on how to succeed in every aspect of life including teamwork, responsibility, communication and creativity. The money raised will partly go to supporting fund the athletes living, training and travel costs along with 60% of the money raised going back into school.
Hello to all our pupils and parents, we hope you've had a fabulous, restful summer. Just a reminder that today is a Curriculum Training Day for staff. School is closed for pupils.
We look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday.
Here are some ideas for 'things to do' in the summer - should you need any! Also, don't forget the Summer Reading Challenge at Walkley Carnegie Library.
Have a great break as we already look forward to September.

This morning Sheffield Music Hub put on a fabulous performance for all the children and staff. We were treated to some jazz and blues classics like the Scooby Do theme tune, Pink Panther, Hit the road Jack plus we got involved with a Samba class. What a treat, so brilliant to see live musicians working together to make such a great sound. We thoroughly enjoyed it!
Good morning
Due to a very busy day on Friday, as we say goodbye to our Y6s in a special leavers' assembly, Golden Assemblies will now both take place at 9.15am on Friday 20th July. We recognise that this will be difficult for some of our parents who have children in both buildings and apologise for the inconvenience this will cause.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
