On Saturday 27th June, Isaac, Lucas, Emily V, Ella, Leah G, Ronnie B, Harry, Eleanor and Morgan represented Walesby C of E Primary School at Retford Swimming Gala. Competing against 5 other local schools, all of our children took the competition in their stride; supporting one another, shouting words of encouragement and doing their very best in the pool. Some children even competed in races above their age group, swimming 50m opposed to 25m.

After one very fast hour of races, the points were in...

In third place WALESBY! WOW!

Well done Walesby, we are exceptionally proud of your swimming talent and sportsmanship.

A big thank you to all the children and parents who gave up their free time to compete. We are very grateful for your support.  

 

Congratulations go to all 24 children who competed in the inter school Cross Country Festival this morning at Dukeries Academy. Children from Year 1 to Year 6 represented Walesby and demonstrated a high level of athleticism, perseverance and determination. Walesby was awarded joint first place with worthy winners Maun Infants. Well done everyone. We are very proud of you all.

GOOD MORNING. School is open as normal today. Please take care when driving in/ walking in. Thank you. 

Today we visited Egmanton Christmas Tree Farm to choose our Christmas Tree. We quickly gathered our measuring sticks and went off in search of the best tree ever. Some were too big, some were too small, then we found the 'one' that was just right! We attached our tag to the top and then Gill went to pay for the tree for us, on behalf of the FOWS. Thank you Friends of Walesby School. We are very excited. We can't wait for the tree to be delivered.  

 

 

This evening, after many years as valued members of the Friends of Walesby School (F.O.W.S), Mrs Michelle Thorpe and Mrs Cheryl Smith have sadly decided to step down from the team.

Over the years, they have been instrumental in organising many Christmas fairs, Easter egg hunts, games nights, discos and other exciting fundraising events. They have baked, shopped, bartered, wrapped, cleaned, tidied, and most importantly, impacted on all of our children's lives; raising much  needed funds to  provide the ‘ fun extras’  that make learning more interesting and exciting.

A huge 'Thank You' to Michelle and Cheryl. We are most grateful for your time and commitment to Walesby. Take care. We will miss you.

Well done to all the children who received a certificate and badge for 100% attendance  and to those children who received a certificate for achieving  96% and above for Autumn 1. 

We are  very proud of you. Keep it up.

Remember, every half term is a new half term, where you too could achieve 100%. Good luck.

Walesby School Council, alongside our Head Boy and Head Girl represented Walesby C of E Primary School today at the Ollerton Remembrance Sunday Service. Poppy wreaths and crosses were placed at the war memorial as the names of the brave were read out.

Walesby Remembers.

Thank you.

Following a tough match tonight, Walesby claimed victory with a 3-2 win. Forest View proved strong competition tonight as our boys battled it out on the pitch. Together, Walesby listened to one another, gave each other direction and pursued each and every goal with sheer determination and perseverance. A great game was had by all.

Well done Walesby.
