Prize Pudding Winners

Last term, these two superstars won a competition to design a label for a range of Christmas puddings being produced to raise funds for St. John's Hospice. Today, they received a delivery of a pudding complete with their very own label and a lovely prize packed full of sweeties!

We are hoping to get an order form in the school office if you would like to order one of the puds in time for Christmas! In addition to the girls' triple ginger and luscious lemon puddings, sticky toffee and plum will be available, all in a range of sizes. Yum! Watch out for further details...

Mrs Penney's Challenge

Mrs Penney spotted this whilst on her holidays and challenges you to sort out the punctuation! 

The poster from the Vintage Festival was emailed in by a parent and it took us a lot of looking to see the mistake! Can you spot it?

Summer Holiday Reading Challenge

Over the holidays, we set the challenge of families being 'caught reading' in unusual places! There will be prizes for the winning entries when we return to school. Keep reading!!

Please send your photos in to Mrs Price at deputyhead@torrisholme.lancs.sch.uk

Summer Holiday Foodbank Collection

Mrs Penney set each class the challenge of collecting as much food as they possibly could for the local foodbank, who really struggle to meet the demands of local families who need support during the school holidays. This morning, Mrs Penney visited each class to see how their collection had gone and was amazed to see how generous our families have been. It was a very tough competition, but the winners were the two classes in Year 4, who will be rewarded with a visit to the ice cream van. The volunteers who collected the food were delighted by the amount and had to make two trips in their van to squeeze it all in! Thank you so much for all your donations!

Goodbye Year 6!

The hall was packed out with families this morning as Year 6 entertained us with their memories and some super singing. After being presented with their autograph books by Chair of Governors, Phil Huddart, the children let go balloons with their dreams for the future attached. The whole school and an army of parents then came along to wave them off on the open-top bus. We wish each and every one of them lots of luck in their new schools.

Year 6 Leavers' Ceilidh
