• 100% Attendance Awards

  Fri 02 Feb 2018
  We had 102 pupils who had 100% attendance for the Autumn Term which was September to December 2017 and today they were rewarded with biscuit making. It was very messy but lots of fun especially when afterwards the children were then allowed to eat them. We had lots of laughs and giggles whilst decorating and we look forward to the next attendance awards. Lets aim for a higher number than 102 if possible.

  On Friday the 26th of May, twelve members of our school choir headed off to Shift Studios in Burnley to record three songs which will become part of a CD recorded to celebrate Padiham On Parade. We were asked to sing songs from the 1940s and 50s. We sang Don't Sit Under The Apple Tree, Good Morning from the film Singing in the Rain and It's a Long Way to Tipperary. 

  The CD will be played over the weekend of the event and copies can be bought on stalls at the event. The date for Padiham On Parade is weekend of the 24th and 25th of June.
