Good afternoon,
We have had a brilliant week at Brambles this week! First of all, thank you to all of you who came along to the parents evenings on Monday and Tuesday, it was great to see you and our best turn out ever (or at least that we can remember)!

We have had a great week with 12 children visiting Yarm Auditorium to see the author Cressida Cowell who wrote the amazing book ‘How to Train Your Dragon’. That loved the afternoon. We had our Hello Yellow day this week with our children raising an incredible amount for awareness of mental health. On the same day we had our Dragon Ball Day, a fun sport day in which the can make up their own rules and adapt the game for themselves. Today, reception visited Stewart’s Park and had a wonderful afternoon outdoors.

Well done to all of our Core Values Champions who were rewarded for demonstrating Kindness and our 100% winners 4L.

Have a wonderful weekend and we will see you all on Monday!

Thanks,
Mr Mayle ... See MoreSee Less

Good afternoon,
It’s the end of another busy week at Brambles. We have had a Reception reading and craft morning, Year 3 went on a trip to Kildare Estate and Year 5 went on their trip to Stewart’s Park!

Our core value focus this week has been Respect and the children were introduced to our final house: Attenborough House. This house is named after David Attenborough, the famous TV presenter and climate change activist due to his immense respect for the environment and planet Earth.

Now that we have introduced all the houses, the children have found out which of the houses they are in and should be able to share this with you this evening.

Well done to everyone for their attendance this week, it was significantly higher across school than last week, but a special well done to 2B who won our attendance award this week with 100%.

Have a wonderful weekend and we will see you on Monday for another busy week!

Thanks,

Good afternoon,
This week has been a really busy but fun week at Brambles! We have had Cross Country competitions from which Oliver qualified for the county finals and year 6 went on a trip to Ninja Warrior which all participants including staff loved!

Also, today we have had our annual MacMillan Fundraiser which started with our coffee morning, thank you to everyone who came in and shared a cuppa and cake with us, and the day finished with our run around school with the children embracing the weather to enjoy the exercise!

Our Core Value and new house this week is Mandela House linked to resilience. Named after Nelson Mandela, who showed great resilience as he campaigned to end the apartheid and gain equality in South Africa. Well done to all of our Core Value Champions who won for resilience this week.

Well done to our attendance winners: 5S.

Good afternoon,

We have had another brilliant week at Brambles, we have had KS2 practicing for the Cross Country competition next week, we have had a Kicks assembly from MFC Foundation and our UKS2 Girls and Boys football teams have had competitions today and yesterday.

Our core value focus is Teamwork and the children have been learning about our Sinfield-Burrow House which represents that teamwork. This is named after 2 gentlemen: Rob Burrow and Kevin Sinfield. Former rugby players who over recent years have raised millions of pounds together to promote Motor Neurone Disease from which Rob Burrow sadly suffered from and eventually passed away as a result of. The teamwork and support they showed each other over the past few years has been very inspirational.

Well done to our Core Value Champions celebrated for teamwork and to our attendance winners: 5B and RH.

Next Friday morning we have our MacMillan Coffee Morning and a number of other trips across next week.

Have a wonderful weekend,
