What a busy day we have had in school today. We have had our first School Council meeting and they are looking forward to sharing their ideas to keep our school a wonderful place to be. Year 1 Acanthis class have been busy painting faces and our nursery children have been singing and dancing to head, shoulders, knees and toes.
It has been a busy couple of days at Middle Park Primary school. Some of our Year 6 children have been working hard and presenting their speeches for the Head boy / girl position. This is not an easy thing, as the panel is made up of a number of staff and a number of children. For most candidates, they had to deliver their speech to an audience of 12 people. They were also asked lots of questions that had to be answered ‘on the spot’. Each and every one of the candidates tried their hardest and were passionate about their vision. We will announce the successful candidates in the newsletter on Monday. In the meantime, let us celebrate just how amazing our Year 6 children are. We are so PROUD of each and every one of them.
We are offering all children from Reception to Year 6 a free breakfast club each day during term time being held at the Middle Park Community Centre (MPCC).
Here is some information
The breakfast club is available every school day from 08.10am to 08.40pm
The children will be offered a nutritious healthy balanced hot/cold breakfast each day which includes cereal, toast, fruit, yoghurts, porridge, plus special menu days.
Once your child has eaten their breakfast there will be time for them to chat to their friends, play games, read, finish homework.
Middle Park Community Centre staff will walk all children up to school for their 08.45am start
Parents/carers can only book their child’s sessions using the ParentPay app (no sessions can be booked by the school office or MPCC) so if you need to get your log in for the ParentPay app please do so as a matter of urgency. To find the bookings it is under the payer dashboard, select your child, and then clubs section. Click on each day you wish to book.
If your child is attending any sessions by signing up you are giving permission for the school to provide any medical, SEN and dietary requirements to MPCC
Sessions must be booked in advance. All bookings for the following week must be made by the previous Wednesday at 3pm.
If your child already attends the MPCC Breakfast Club arriving earlier than 08.10am then you must still book your child onto the school sessions so that you receive a reduced rate on the earlier drop off session charge that you pay directly to the MPCC
If your child does not attend their sessions booked then they may not be able to book in for the following weeks sessions (unless they are ill from school).
Breakfast Club sessions will start on Monday 13th April 2026
Andromeda (winners of the best attendance for Autumn term!) have had the BEST day jumping at Oxygen trampoline park! Being in school everyday definitely has its perks!
Week 1 of Food Critics Club was a success! We tasted some flavours from Spain, and our verdicts were generally positive-maybe with the exception of the spinach tortilla!
Mysterious Egg and Nest appear in the front playground There were some strange goings-on in school last week when a curious nest with a random selection of eggs appeared on top of the sandpit. The children had some very imaginative explanations for what may have happened and what might happen next. We couldn’t be completely sure whether the eggs belonged to a bird or maybe even a reptile. Perhaps our friends in Middle Lark were reaching out to us again?? Who knows.
It has been fun seeing all the different parts of the water cycle in abundance this week! The children were excited to visibly see the play equipment and then we all watched it fall back down from the sky relentlessly!
