• Parish Church Christmas Tree Festival

  Fri 30 Nov 2018 S. Chamberlain
  A big well done to reception and year 6 for working together to make baubles for the Barnby Road Christmas tree that is on display in St Mary Magdalene Parish Church in Newark. Some of the staff and a selection of year 6 children have just been decorating the tree and it looks amazing. Please visit the Tree festival and admire the super teamwork from the children.

  The App is free and really easy to download, with so many benefits we'd like to encourage you all to download it!!

• Governor reading support

  Thu 29 Nov 2018 S. Chamberlain
  It was great to see one of our governors Mr Damon Fox come into school yesterday to listen to some children read and share some of his favourite children's books. We are continually trying to promote a love of reading at the school and value the support from our governors.

  

• Super Chess & Handball performances

  Thu 22 Nov 2018 S. Chamberlain
  A big well done to all of the children who represented the school at either chess or handball last night. We had approximately 50 children at the two events with a number of them representing Barnby Road for the first time at a tournament. The chess players all performed very well and each team is well positioned in the league table after the first of 3 tournaments that will take place during the year. The handball teams were also great and I am pleased to announce that we secured 1st and 2nd position with two of our teams and they will now both go on to represent the school in the county finals.

• Children in Need

  Fri 16 Nov 2018 Anna Woolridge
  We have had a fantastic spotty day for Children in Need today. The Pupil Council organised biscuit decorating and a colouring competition to help us raise money. We also had a special visit from Pudsey. In total, we raised a whopping £735 for Children in Need today! Well done to all of the Pupil Council for organising such a fantastic day and thank you to everybody who donated.
