Crestwood Park Primary School

What a wet and windy end to the half term and a memorable way to mark the 'half-way' point of the academic year! We finished with a jam-packed Achievement Assembly complete with AWARE SPARKS awards, golden certificates, recognition for Bikeability bikers, medals and trophies from home, certificates for cross country runners, prizes for the Flower Competition ... and the attendance trophy! We are always incredibly proud of our children, and celebrations like today are a brilliant way of sharing so many successes. 

Thankyou for supporting parents' Evening so well. If you missed your appointment, please contact class teachers and they will happily rearrange, at a time to suit you. Also, if you haven't yet completed a parent/ carer survey, please do so using the link below.

Well done to all of the children who took part in Bikeability this week! Don't forget to use your new skills if you are out and about during half term!

Well done to Rosie in Year 4, for winning Mr Powell's TTRS medal this week- we were very proud to be able to present Rosie with her medal in today's achievement assembly! Don't forget you can practice your times tables over half term.

We will announce the winners in our next newsletter!

Well done to our year 5 cross country team who did a fabulous job at the local school competition yesterday. The team navigated the tricky course at Summerhill very well indeed and ran a fabulous race. Special congratulations to Daisy who came 33rd out of 126, an amazing result!

Thank you for all of your feedback so far. 

If you haven't already done so, please complete the parent survey using the link below. Your views are really important to us so if you'd like to discuss anything within the survey, please leave your name and contact number on the bottom of the form.

Thank you to everyone who supported our School Council with their Flower Craft competition!

It was incredibly difficult to just choose just 1 winner for each class- you really are a talented bunch!

Thank you to the school council for working hard for our school- it's really thoughtful of you all to want to improve our school grounds.

Together, you have have raised an £50 towards some new flowers/plants...so we will be sending Mr Oakes out with a shopping list very soon!

Just a reminder that our next Parent Voice meeting is on Friday 4th March at 9am.

You can access the agenda via the link below. 

We have attached the link for a  useful website below, which helps you and your child know how to deal with and tackle in-game/online bullying.

World Book Day 2022

World Book Day is on Thursday 3rd March. Your child is invited to dress up as a book character for the day. This year, we will be focusing on Poetry and each class will learn a poem. Also, the Year 6 Reading Ambassadors, will be preparing a treasure hunt, a competition and lots of different activities for the children to have a go at throughout the day.

Let’s bring books to life this half term. You could visit the library together, share your favourite books, practise reading poetry and even create your own stories! I would love to see your pictures of you enjoying a book together. Please email me at acadman@crestwood-p.dudley.sch.uk

Thank you to all those who visited the book fair and purchased books. It was so lovely to see the children with their new books – passionate about reading them. We made a grand total of £736.32. This means we will get a healthy amount back to spend on books for school. Thank you again for your generosity.

We are now at the point where we can open assemblies out to all parents and carers again- this has always been a feature of Crestwood Park and it's certainly not something that is offered across all schools, so we are pleased to be able to open our doors to all. 

Please don't come in if you're unwell and do continue to wear a mask if you prefer to. Thankyou.

Hopefully the stormy weather passes us by without too much disruption and that we get to see a few blue skies over the weekend. If you're lucky enough to be at home with your children next week, then enjoy the time together.

Take care and we hope to see you all back at school on Monday 28th March, ready for another busy half term!
