On Saturday 4th February, our bid for It’s Up 2 U funding was successful. Miss Bowden attended Spennymoor Leisure Centre and members of the public voted for various causes. It was fantastic to hear that our bid had been successful. The money will go towards brand new sports equipment, which will be used on our new MUGA. This will help in our efforts to provide holiday club provisions. Thank you to those who voted and special thanks go to Miss Bowden for leading the bid on Saturday.

Children from across the school have thoroughly enjoyed working with the writer Adam Bushnell this week. From creating dinosaurs, to describing the scary insides of a pyramid, the children have really excelled themselves. It all culminated in an amazing assembly this afternoon, with our special guest delivering some fantastic story-telling. We are delighted that Adam will return to Ox Close in the next academic year.
