Supporting the charity, MDNA
Wed 29 Mar 2023Today, we had the honour of supporting John Newell and a team of walkers, who have set off on their sponsored walk to raise money in support of the MNDA charity.
The team will walk from Oughterside Foundation School to Blackpool Tower Over the course of the next few days. They have already smashed their initial target and are on course to raise over £11,000 for this very worthy cause.
It was a privilege to complete the first part of their journey with the walkers and clap them off into the distance as they started this gruelling task. John spoke passionately about their mission and is incredibly thankful for all the support they have been given.
We wish them lots of luck over the coming days and look forward to progress reports. Thank you to all children and family members who have donated to this wonderful charity!

Mothers Day Event
Fri 17 Mar 2023On Friday 17th March, Mrs Hetherington held her 32nd Mothers Day Event in school, creating an opportunity for children to purchase small gifts for the mothers and grandmothers. The event is very popular with children and parents alike, and Mrs Hetherington puts in an enormous amount of time and effort, making many items herself. We can't thank her enough, as all money made from the event, goes back into the school and is spent on the children.
The children have requested that we get some picnic benches for the field, so when the weather improves, we will be investing in some for them.
Thank you Mrs Hetherington for all your hard work.
