Dear Parents and Carers,

Thank you so much for your support with sponsorships for our running event for VE Day 80. The children did brilliantly and we were so proud of them. If you have any sponsorship money at home for our chosen charity, Blind Veterans UK, please send this into the school office by 21st May. Mrs Townsend taught the children how to sign 'We'll Meet Again' by Dame Vera Lynn and you can see this recording here: Class Pages | Pilsley C of E Primary School

This afternoon, Class 4 have had their first Teams call with Wilkie Cumberbatch school in Barbados! It was great to ask the children lots of questions about what life is like at home and at school in Barbados and we've learnt lots already. We hope to set up another call later in the summer term. 

Next week is SATs week for our Y6 children. SATs tests will be running every morning from Monday-Thursday. We would really appreciate it if you could make sure that your child/children arrive at school on time so we can make a timely start. Everyone is immensely proud of all of our Y6s who have worked tremendously hard in preparing for these tests. The Y6s have approached their practise tests with calmness and a real determination to do well- good luck everybody!

A reminder that the Y5s need to be dropped off at Chatsworth House on Monday morning at 9am please where Mrs Dey will be waiting for them. 

The Y6s have their Y6 celebration sporting event at Whitworth Park on Friday. 

Wishing you a lovely sunny weekend,

Mrs E Bond

Headteacher
