Foodbank Friday

On Friday we collected 96kg of food for Morecambe Bay Foodbank. Thank you to everyone who donated!

Book Raffle

To celebrate World Book Day, we held a book raffle. The children who bought tickets crossed their fingers as the winners were revealed in assembly and chose a prize from a fabulous selection of books! The proceeds of the raffle will be donated to Book Aid International.

World Book Day Celebrations

Thursday 5th March is World Book Day and we have some exciting book activities planned to celebrate...

Throughout the day, we will be taking part in 'Drop Everything and Read', which means that each time the bell rings, we have to drop everything and read!

We would also love to invite parents into school to share a book with small groups of children. Please see your child's teacher to arrange a time if you would like to come in and help us.

In addition, raffle tickets are on sale all week for our 'Book Raffle'. Tickets are priced at 50p, with the proceeds going to Book Aid International. The raffle will take place in Friday's assembly and winners will be able to choose a book from our selection!

The Big Pedal Is Here!

From Monday 2nd March, Torrisholme School are registered for the BIG PEDAL. This is a nationwide event that encourages children - and parents - to cycle or scoot to school every day.

A total is taken each day of how many people have come to school by bike or scooter, this is recorded on a national website and prizes are given to the most active school. Points are awarded for each participant - children/parents who cycle earn more points for school than those who scoot (although both count).

It would be great for as many children/parents as possible to get involved with this project. It doesn’t matter if you can’t do it every day - every little helps. Bikes and scooters can be locked in the bike sheds or along the back fence.

Please ensure children are cycling safely and wear a helmet at all times!
