The whole school had a fantastic time at the pantomime today. It was an amazing performance and the room was filled with laughter and smiles.

Thank you to FOMS for coming into school and creating decorations with the children for our tree at St Wulfram’s Christmas Tree Festival.

The tree looked great this weekend!

FOMS plan like to hold a Christmas jumper pre-loved sale in early December. 

If parents have any old Christmas Jumpers which children or adults have outgrown - would you like to donate them to FOMS?

You can then purchase the next size for your child or adult from our sale for less than half of the price of a new one!

Eco-friendly and saves you money!

Please bring your old washed and in good condition, Christmas jumpers to school by 25^th November so they can be sorted into size ready for the sale in the first week of December.

Thank you for supporting FOMS.

Marston rocked Odd Socks Day on Monday 14th November 2022 in aid of Anti-Bullying Week!

This year we are holding a sponsored walk on Friday 18th November 2022.  Money raised from this event will be split equally between Children in Need and the Church in Marston (St Mary's Church) for the Spire Fund.

The walk will be around the village and children will need to bring suitable footwear (wellingtons or walking boots) on the day as well as a warm coat, hat, gloves etc.

A sponsor form was sent home with all children on 7th November 2022

The school will be taking part in various activities in the run up to Remembrance day this year.

One of these activities is to paint a poppy on a pebble.

To ensure all children are able to take part in this, we are asking children to bring their own pebble into school the week commencing 31st October.

The pebble should be roughly the size of the child's palm and smooth enough to paint on.

Many thanks.

Are you committed to the school? Willing to ask questions and offer appropriate support and challenge?

If so, then you may be interested to learn of an exciting opportunity that has arisen within the governing board for a new Parent Governor. You do not need to have educational expertise but to be willing to work as an enthusiastic and committed member of the governing board team to support the raising and maintaining of high educational standards. The role of parent governor is to guide the strategic development of the school rather than the day-to-day management.

We welcome applications from all parents/carers with an interest in this role but particularly nominations from underrepresented or different ethnic minorities and/or those with an understanding of the primary or secondary curriculum, as these areas have been identified as areas to develop on our current board.

The closing date for nominations is 8^th November. Please click on the following link: 'Meet the Governors' Webpage to see the letter and information if you are interested and a parent/carer of a child registered at the school. . A nomination letter will be sent home with the children  on Tuesday, 18th October 2022.

Many thanks
