An Artist’s Impression

Our Year 2 School Councillor sketched an impression of how the ‘new’ school field may look following the announcements of our improvement plans. It’s fair to say that if his ideas come anywhere near reality, then the children of Birkwood are in for a huge treat! The sketch is even more impressive in reality, although we’re sure you will enjoy this scanned version! Well done, a top effort!

Exciting Times Ahead

We at Birkwood: the staff, Governing Body, children and parents are always striving to make our school a better place to be. In our most recent School Improvement Work, we have identified the field as an area which we can improve. Exclusively, www.birkwood.org.uk can reveal exactly how we plan to do this! Mrs. Allen and Mrs. Whitfield have met with The School Council and an outdoor education specialist and selected an adventure packed range of facilities to give our school campus a new look! The work will start imminently and the plans received a very excitable response in Monday’s Assembly – we take this as a seal of approval! This work is being carried out thanks to the whole Birkwood Community contributing to our School Improvement Planning. The final designs were voted on by The School Council, showing democracy’s role in making major decisions. Well done to everyone involved, we can’t wait to see the finished article!

A Great Effort!

The Birkwood Community, led by the School Council, have again proved tremendously generous in fund raising for the 2011 Children In Need Appeal! Presently, our total exceeds £800 – a fabulous effort. The children looked amazing and all enjoyed the afternoon Fayre, organised by our Councillors with the help of Mrs Taylor and Mrs Gough in particular. The total is still rising as the Kes photograph, kindly donated by the Becketts has yet to be raffled. This will take place on Friday 24th November and raffle tickets priced at £1 are available right up until the 2:45 Assembly draw! Here are some of the photos of the day, including Mrs Allen’s BBC Radio Sheffield Live Appearance! Thanks again to everyone. This most wonderful cause has benefitted enormously!
