• School Council

  Mon 02 Oct 2023

  Congratulations to all of our new school council team. The children have been writing letters applying for different roles in the council and were voted for by their peers. Mr Chapman then worked with the new team and selected a chair, vice-chair and office managers based on the skills they had demonstrated in our initial meetings. The school council have three key priorities to begin with:

  1. Give every child in school a voice.

  2. Make changes which improve the school for everyone.

  3. Be role-models at all time.

  We have no doubt that the new team will have a significant impact on life at Lawns Park over the coming year.

• Lawns Park Garden of Hope

  Fri 07 Jan 2022

  We’re raising funds to create a “Garden of Hope” in the school grounds for our children and families to enjoy. We want to create an oasis of peace and beauty for our children to enjoy during their busy days. We will create a mini garden area with flowers, plants and seating. Children will be able to spend time thinking and reflecting or chatting to their friends in a natural environment.

   

  We’re delighted that “The Lawns Park Garden of Hope” has been chosen to benefit from the Co-op Local Community Fund and we wondered if you could support us to raise funds for our school project?

   

  For more information, see the letters section of our website here.

• Sports clubs to resume.

  Sun 25 Apr 2021

  This week we are resuming sports clubs at lunchtimes and afterschool. This is a brilliant step forward and a perfect way to promote the physical and mental health of our pupils. We do have to work within our COVID risk assessment and this restricts how many clubs and the kinds of clubs we can offer at this time. We will be reviewing as we get more guidance.  We are also hoping to compete with other schools within the locality soon as well! Watch this space.
