• Year 6 London Residential

  Mon 27 Feb 2023

  Year 6 made Wheatcroft history this week on our first ever residential visit to London! We had two exciting days in the capital enjoying visits to the British Museum, Covent Garden, The Lion King Musical, Cleopatra's Needle, The Houses of Parliament for a workshop and tour, a Thames River Cruise, and a flight on the London Eye! We also did lots of walking and were pro tube-travellers by the end! All the staff who supported on the visit are incredibly proud of the children's behaviour, their courage, their care for one another and the way they represented our school. I would like to thank all the children and also all the staff who came with us, for making this visit such a success. 💛⭐️

• World Book Day 2023

  Fri 24 Feb 2023

  WORLD BOOK DAY 2023 - Thursday 2nd March *
  
  This year for World Book Day we are taking part in a sponsored 'Readathon' on behalf of the 'Read for Good' charity. ( readforgood.org )

   

  The children will bring home a sponsorship card and a bookmark. The money raised will be spent by the charity to provide books for children in hospital. Also, Wheatcroft will receive free books to the value of 20% of the total amount raised. Our Readathon will begin on Monday 27th February and finish on Friday 10th February. Any donation - no matter how big or small - will make a huge difference. Thank you in advance for your support.
  
  On World Book day (Thursday 2nd March) we will be conducting a book swap within our classes. If your child would like to send a book in to swap, please do so. Please make sure any books sent in for swaps are of good quality and are not longer wanted. We are not dressing up for World Book Day so please send the children to school in their uniform. We will also be having a live author event in school with best-selling author Michael Morpurgo, which is really exciting!

• MCAS Portal- Parents Evening Bookings

  Fri 24 Feb 2023

  We are excited to be relaunching our parent portal - My Child at School (MCAS). You can access the portal online at www.MyChildAtSchool.com or by downloading the app on iOS and Android. Your child will be bringing home login details and instruction sheets today or early next week - please watch out for these big white envelopes and activate (or log back in to your account if you’ve previously set up your account) as soon as possible.
  
  For the upcoming Spring parents evenings you will need access to MCAS s that you can book your own appointments. There will be no slips and staff will not be sending times home or making appointments, MCAS will be the only way to book a time to see your child’s teacher. We will let you know when bookings go live!
  
  If you need help getting set up please do get in touch with the Office, and they will be able to assist you. Thank you!
