Healey Foundation Primary School

Healey Primary School

Next week is the last week of this Spring Term. For 30 children from Year 5 and 6 Wednesday, Thursday and Friday it is the residential visit to Robinwood. The children will leave about 9:30 on Wednesday morning and return around 2:30 on Friday afternoon. The children will be able to go home when they arrive back at school, but not younger brothers and sisters.

Well done to the children who were presented with the Achievement Cup last Friday:

Reception: Isobel Harden
Year 1: Grace Lee
Year 2: Alex Burrows
Year 3: Madelynne Roberts
Year 4: Georgia Barrett
Year 5: Jasmin Hill-Metcalfe
Year 6: Mollie Price

School attendance was 96 per cent and the best class was Year 5 with almost 98 per cent.

On Monday 26 the after school art group are working down at Hopwood Hall College and will need picking up from there at 5.00pm. On Thursday 29 it is reception Easter Play starting at 2.00pm.

Tonight (24 March), the choir and dance group are guest performers at Rochdale Youth Orchestra “A Springtime Spectacular”. The concert begins at 7:30pm at The Riverside in Whitworth.

Many thanks to Fallon for her amazing sponsorship attempt. Fallon has raised a considerable amount towards buying a ‘picnic/games table’ which are £400 each by swimming 2000m (80 lengths). We are hoping to install several of these under Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 verandahs to give the children more activities at playtimes and for parents to sit and rest when waiting for the children. Please help as much as you can.

Phoebe and Mollie have now produced the third Healey Newspaper which is on sale every break at 5p. This latest edition has photographs of the new play area and word searches, colouring and quiz activities based on Hans Christian Andersen.
