Celebration Assembly

Today we gave out our very special Golden Certificates.  These are given to one child selected by the class teacher each term.  A word that was heard often in the assembly was 'Always'.  These children children always try their best, they are always kind, they are always a good friend to others, they are always a good role model.  We are very proud of them.

Children who had great achievements outside of school also received a Golden Certificate; for playing their instruments at the Royal Albert Hall, winning dance and art competitions and being selected to play for Barnsley Boys.

We were overwhelmed by the amazing array of pumpkin designs and the number of super spooky pumpkins brought into school today for the Pumpkin Competition.  Choosing a winning pumpkin from each class was an impossible task.  Well done everyone.
