WE HAVE A PODCAST!

We have kept this very quiet…but Woodpark Primary now has our very own podcast!

The podcast is called ‘A View From the Wood’ and will explore all the issues the children want to talk about related to both school and the wider world.

The Primary 7 children are the only ones who have known about it until now – and they have been very excited!

We would love as many people as possible to support our podcast by listening on Spotify or Amazon Music (we are working on getting it on Apple Music) – so please share the link and the podcast with as many people are you can!

Mobile Phones

A number of mobile phones have been finding their way into school since returning for the new term. Could we please ask all parents and carers to make sure phones are not being brought into school. This is for a number of reasons – but particularly due to photography risks and damage to phones.

If there is a specific reason your child needs to bring a phone on an occasion, it must be agreed with the school beforehand. In all other cases we would ask for your help in keeping phones at home.

 

Thank you for your help.

SPORTS DAY TOMORROW!

Don’t forget it is the Woodpark Primary Sports Day tomorrow!

Parents/carers are welcome to attend at 10:45 for the inter-house competition, then again at 1:15 for the races.

Please wait at the black gate into the junior playground at both times for a member of staff to guide you to the events.

We hope to see as many of you as possible…and don’t forget your running shoes for the parents’ race!!

Sports Day!

Sports Day will take place on Wednesday 22nd June

It is an all day event and the children are allowed to wear gym clothes (no football colours).

Parents/carers can attend at two separate times during the day –

  • 10:45am – 12pm – the infant playground for the inter-house events
  • 1:15pm – 2:30pm – the senior playground for the track events (follow the signs)

In the event of poor weather, we unfortunately cannot have parents/carers in the school for the event – we don’t have the space!

We hope for sunny weather and hope to see as many of you as possible there!
