What a fantastic and memorable week it has been for our Year 6 pupils! Alongside our Year 5 children, they wowed audiences with four incredible performances of Newsies. Every show was absolutely brilliant, showcasing the pupils’ hard work, talent, confidence and teamwork. After such a busy and successful week, Year 6 rounded off their time together by taking part in the much-loved traditional water fight.

Our Summer Fair was a tremendous success, raising an amazing £2,014 for the school! We were incredibly lucky to enjoy a wonderful sunny day, and there was so much for everyone to enjoy, including games, stalls, a bouncy castle, face painting, party hair, delicious pizza and refreshments. The children delighted us with some fantastic performances, and the raffle was a huge hit.

School Uniform Expectations
Colwall C of E Primary – School Uniform Expectations
PE Kit
Parents may purchase green sweatshirts, cardigans, fleeces and white polo shirts embroidered with the School’s name and logo from the Club Sport shop in Ledbury or online from Trutex Direct. If you are using Trutex Direct please enter the following code: LEA00350PB.
Second hand uniform is available to buy and there are regular sales, organised by The Friends, throughout the year.
P.E. Kit
P.E is an important part of the curriculum. We want the children to look good and feel good when exercising.
Please provide a plain white t-shirt or black polo shirt (available from Clubsports/Trutex), black shorts and pumps/trainers. The children may wear black tracksuit trousers in the winter.
P.E. kit should be sent into school on the first day of school each half term. Your child will have allocated days for P.E., but we do go out for a run whenever possible, so pumps/trainers are always needed in school. P.E. bags will be sent home for washing at least every half term or before if they start to get smelly!
Our black P.E. polo shirts are more expensive than a plain white t-shirt, but they are much more practical as they stay clean and do not get screwed up in the bottom of the P.E. bag.
Buy a larger size and it will last longer!
