• Fire Safety and Road Sense workshops

  Tue 28 Nov 2023 Mrs Rawcliffe

  On the 28th November, Year 2 and Year 6 were visited by the fire service and took place in two very different workshops!

   

  Year 2 children enjoyed an interactive session, in which the fire service discussed fire safety, checking fire alarms at home, what to do in the event of a fire and what to say on the phone. The children had lots of fun too, trying on the protective clothing.

   

  Year 6 children enjoyed a very informative 'Road Sense' session. The children were given guidance to help with the transition from primary to high school including:

  • The importance of wearing seatbelts and using appropriate car seats
  • Safe cycling including wearing cycle helmets
  • Pedestrian safety
  • Be safe be seen
  • Not causing a distraction when travelling in a car

  All the children took an active part in the session and listened well to the very important advice they were given.

   

  A big thank you to Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service for taking the time to visit our school.

  

• Lest we forget

  Fri 10 Nov 2023

  Today children from Year 4 and 6 walked to Deerplay along with parents, local councillors and Bacup History trust. Children completed readings and a minutes silence was observed followed by The Last Post played on a bugle. It was a truly moving morning.

  

• Spooky fun at the disco

  Wed 01 Nov 2023 Mrs Ewens

  The PTA have done it again!  They organised 2 fantastic discos which all of the children thoroughly enjoyed.  We had dance competitions and pumpkin competitions, face painting and snacks.  It is so lovely to see all of the children enjoying themselves so much.  

  Thank you PTA from all of us at Northern.
