As always at Stamford Park Primary School, we've got a very strong focus on competitive sport and ensuring as many pupils as possible have the opportunity to participate. Our netball teams are off to Alderley Edge School for Girls this afternoon to take part in a netball match, while our hockey team are playing in the league tonight. We've also got children attending a Sports Hall Athletics event on Thursday as well.
Today, Years 2, 3, 5 and 6 attended a Remembrance Service at St Peter's Church in Hale. All the children made poppies, which they planted in the grounds of the church. Later this afternoon, our Year 4 children also visited to plant their poppies, while our Year 1 children walked to the cenotaph yesterday to hold their two minutes silence.
Many thanks to the parents and families who joined us for this event.
On Wednesday 2nd November, Stamford Park Primary came together and celebrated Diwali Day as a whole school.
We dressed up in beautiful, colourful clothes and enjoyed a day full of brilliant activities. We had dancing, rangoli patterns, special guests sharing their Diwali experiences and we even had a Diwali snack of samosas! Yummy!
A huge thank you to the parents and grandparents who came in and spoke to the children about their experiences of Diwali.
