Pool In Wharfedale CE Primary School

Last week we had so many exciting things happening! ✨

On Tuesday our Y5 student Christina held an assembly - This assembly taught pupils about road safety when animals, such as horses and dogs, are in close proximity to other road users and pedestrians. It was a fantastic opportunity for Christina to present in front of an audience and develop both her public speaking and oracy skills.

On Wednesday we said a temporary goodbye to Sevvy, our beloved reading dog, and welcomed some delightful ducklings instead. The children were absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to stroke and care for them, and we're already looking forward to their return next week. It's moments like these that remind us how important it is to nurture our pupils' connection with the natural world.

Our Year 6 pupils will be sitting their SATS this week, and they have worked tirelessly throughout the year in preparation. We wish them every success as they take this important step in their learning journey. Good luck Year 6!

A big thank you to Tammy & John for their hard work making our Forest School more secure! We are extremely lucky to have this provision here at Pool Primary, our pupils visit weekly rotating year groups on a termly basis, learning invaluable skills & having fun in the outdoors!

We also want to highlight the wonderful work of the Log Circle, who work tirelessly to enhance our Peace Garden and Forest School offer. They run a variety of inclusive classes and sessions that cater to different age groups – from preschool and baby groups through to sessions for teenagers and adults. We're really keen to maintain this provision, but it does need to attract more participants to continue. If you'd like to find out more or book a session, please follow the link below or speak to our office team:

Here's to an incredible Summer term!

Everyone at Pool CE Primary is extremely sad to hear about the passing of Richard Parker. Mr Parker was a valued and loved teacher for 37 years, followed by a respected and dedicated member of the governing body. Pool will not be the same without you, Mr P. Thank you for everything you did for the school and the community. We send love to his family and friends.
