Sports Relief
Thank you to everyone who supported Sports Relief at Strawberry Fields in March. The children had some very imaginative ideas for fundraising and we ended up with a whole-school conga line around the playground (thanks, Miss Hall!). All the money raised will go to good causes.
Arts Award
Last year, our Year Sixes took part in a project organised by Leeds University and the Wordsworth Trust. This included them studying and creating different art forms (poetry and painting), recording the weather and visiting the Wordsworth Centre in Cumbria. The work they produced was assessed by trained staff, and this week they were all awarded their certificates in a special assembly at school.
Easter egg competition
Thank you to all those parents who sent in entries for our egg decorating competition. Some of the imagination on display was wonderful. Egg Sheeran was a particular favourite! Mrs. Elmer chose one winner from each class. Thank you to the Friends of Strawberry Fields for helping to organise this event.
Family Quiz Night
On Friday March 23rd, we held our first ever family quiz night, organised by the Friends of Strawberry Fields. The event was a real success, raising over £200 for school funds, but more importantly, helping to further develop our schools's inviting, community atmosphere and ethos. It was lovely for parents, grandparents, carers, children and staff to be able to mix in a more informal context. Thank you to everyone who attended, and everybody involved in organising or hosting the event.
