School Choir

It was lovely to hear the school choir sing at the family service at St Oswalds Backford church. Once
again they gave us good reason to be proud of them and the school. My thanks go to all the parents
who brought their children along on a Sunday morning.
Red Nose Day Update

This was a great event and we are pleased to say that the final total for Red Nose Day was 358.92.

Active Cheshire Sports Awards

Hopefully you will be aware that the school was shortlisted for the Active Cheshire Sports School of

the Year Award. This was great recognition of our commitment to the inclusion of all children in a wide
range of sports. Last Friday Mr Timms and Mr Wallace attended the awards dinner at the Double Tree
Hilton in Hoole and were accompanied for the first part of the evening by the St Oswalds Sports

Ambassadors who greeted guests as they arrived on the red carpet As always they were a credit to
the school. Sadly we didnt win the award, but as we know in sport, and in life, you cant always win.
We recognise that it was a great achievement to get on the shortlist and would like to thank all the
support we had to get to this stage. Picture are our sports ambassadors with Mr Timms, Mr Wallace
and representatives from Active Cheshire.

Parents Evening

Dont forget to sign up for your parents evening appointment on Monday 23 or Wednesday 25 March if
you havent already done so. Parents evening will follow the same format as last time with all the
childrens trays being in the school hall and individual appointments in the classroom. As last time

teachers will be using their ipads to try and stay on time and avoid long waits for parents. Feedback
from the parents I spoke to about this last time was very positive.
