A range of brilliant new play equipment has arrived in Kingsley following many months of bid-writing, quote-gathering, and hours-upon-hours of organisation from Mrs Corby, Mrs Hughes and Miss Wainwright, a thoughtful group of our parents. It is our pleasure to share with you photographs and a few words from this kind trio.
The Kingsley Venture Valley Project Team is delighted to finally announce your new play area is finished and ready to be played on! It has passed its safety inspection and the security fence has come down. Thank you very much for your patience while the work has been in progress. We hope you love it as much as we do!
We would like to say a big thank you for the support and encouragement the school gave the project with the surveys and newsletter updates. These were very helpful and as they will see the equipment and facilities they expressed interest in have been included in the design.
We hope the children will enjoy the swinging, sliding, climbing, spinning and zipping and have many hours of fun and adventures here.
Thank you very, very much for your spectacular efforts to benefit our community and we are sure that the children will really, really enjoy playing safely on this fabulous equipment.
...love one another.

It was wonderful to come together in prayer today as we celebrated Harvest in school.
Led by Rev Sue, our 'virtual' Service using video conferencing was a special opportunity to share prayers from each classroom and a parable, and to give thanks at this special time of year. Classes produced some very creative artwork and each also wrote a prayer of thanks.
The creativity within God's world brought us seedlings and artwork featuring a mouse, a cow, a pizza (and the miles the ingredients have to travel) and a Harvest wreath.
Many thanks to Mr Ratcliffe (our Link Trustee) for joining us from home too.
A happy display full of the children's artwork has been added to the Worship Council noticeboard and is pictured here.
...love God, love one another.

A huge 'thank you' for your support of the recent MacMillan Coffee Morning Non-Uniform Day here in school.
By coming into school in non-uniform, we were able to raise a brilliant £190 for this important charity - which is particularly special as we are in a time of such uncertainty.
Thank you all for your kindness and thoughtfulness.

On Friday 25th September, children are invited to come to school in non-uniform and bring a donation to the MacMillan Coffee Morning, an important cause which we have supported in recent years.
Although we may not currently be able to sit together and enjoy a cuppa and a slice of something tasty, we would still like to help the important work by the people at MacMillan and ask for a donation of any size (anything helps) in return for coming to school in non-uniform.
Why not mark the occasion at home by working your way through a big, beautiful slice of your favourite cake!
...love one another.

We wish our amazing Year 6 the very, very best of luck as they leave St. Werburgh's C.E. Primary School and head off for exciting new adventures at High School.
Throughout this period, they have been unable to experience so many of the exciting times which are special to Year 6, yet have remained positive, happy and, quite frankly, fabulous! We are all very proud of you! Thank you to the PTA and the church for their thoughtful gifts, and thank you to those parents/carers who were able to send in messages for them.
Thank you also to all of those parents/carers who are also leaving us - some of you have been part of your school for more than a decade! We really appreciate your support and chats ...and we will miss you too!
Thank you all for being so ‘owwwwtstanding!’
