Badock’s Wood Primary School today ended a busy year with a Continental Big Breakfast and a special Leavers Assembly.
These events came at the end of a really busy week which included both school and community events.
A week of ‘madness’ began last Friday with the annual school Barbecue, to which children, parents, carers and staff were all invited. Beginning at 6.30pm, good food, music and dancing was enjoyed by all!
A few days later on July 21st, a special retirement tea party, held for Mrs. Allan the school secretary, took place during the afternoon. Parents, children and colleagues both past and present were invited to share some food and drink with Mrs. Allan who retires this year after an amazing 17 years of service to Badock’s Wood Primary.
On July 22nd, Year 6 performed their end of year production to the whole school during the morning and to parents and adults during the evening. Based on the TV show ‘Britain’s Got Talent’, the Year 6 version, ‘Badock’s Got Talent’ included jokes, music, impersonations of celebrities and, of course, some genuine talent in the form of singing and dancing. Over 70 parents and adults watched the evening performance.
Finally, today started with a ‘Continental Big Breakfast’ attended by the usual Breakfast Club attendees, as well as many more children and adults. With tea, coffee, hot chocolate, croissants, ham, bread and toast and jam on the menu, as well as a raffle, a great time was had by all!
Later during the morning, a special ‘Leavers Assembly’ took place to say special goodbyes to all the adults and children who were leaving this year. First up were the LSA’s, including Mrs Harding, and Miss Burleton. Everyone also said goodbye to teacher Miss Leakey, who is leaving to travel and work in New Zealand. Of curse, there was an emotional goodbye to Mrs. Allan. Last, but certainly not least, the whole school said goodbye to Year 6, who will be starting new adventures at Secondary School in September. Each child was presented with a dictionary and there where extra awards for selected children who had demonstrated additional attributes this year.
A memorable week! See our calendar page for details of the dates for the new term in September.
