A big thank you to all the children who brought in contributions for our Christmas Shoebox Appeal. Your generosity will make a real difference to those in need.

We are also grateful to Mr. Huggins, our Chair of Governors, who kindly collected the boxes and delivered them to TEECH.org, ready for their onward journey.

The whole school came together to observe a two-minute silence in honour of Remembrance Day. It was a moment of reflection and respect shared by all. We are especially proud of Jake and Beatrice, who laid a wreath on behalf of the school during the village Remembrance Day parade.

Thank you to all of you that joined us for our Harvest Festival.  We hope you all enjoyed the service as much as we did.  Thank you for all of your kind donations that have been donated to the food bank.

We were delighted to welcome our local MP, Kemi Badenoch, to GWPS recently for a very special occasion – the official opening of our brand new classroom.

Mrs. Badenoch had the honour of cutting the ribbon and marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our school. She has since written to us to share her thanks, saying how much she appreciated the opportunity to be part of such a memorable event.

During her visit, Mrs. Badenoch spoke with our local Councillors; Cllr Steel and Cllr Ball, school staff, members of the FOGWS committee, and our Year 6 pupils. She praised the pupils for their “maturity and enthusiasm”, noting that they are “a real credit to the nurturing environment of the school that the headteacher has created.”

She also commented on the positive impact of the new classroom, describing it as “a wonderful addition to the school which will serve as a vibrant and engaging learning environment for years to come.”

Before leaving, Mrs. Badenoch expressed her gratitude to the whole GWPS team, highlighting the dedication and commitment that was evident throughout her visit.

This was a proud and memorable day for our school community, and we look forward to many happy learning experiences in our new classroom.

Thank you to all of our North America parents that attended our class lunch.

The atmosphere was wonderful, and Year 6 parents even had the pleasure of staying for a game of rounders… obviously the children won!

What a truly wonderful show our pupils delivered!

We are very proud of the singing, dancing and acting that we witnessed throughout the production. Most importantly, it was clear that the children really enjoyed themselves. Well done to all involved.
