• Year 4 East Barnby Residential

  Thu 23 Mar 2023

  After arriving and making up our beds we had a great afternoon beck scrambling. Everyone challenged themselves and we all got wet in the water!

   

  After a good nights sleep we had a fabulous day canoeing down the River Esk. Everyone showed excellent teamwork and lots of courage and resilience to get us all the way! We even saw a steam train go past as we were having our lunch on the island in the river. In the evening we rested by our camp fire.

   

  On day 3 we worked together and built shelters before packing our things and returning home .

   

  We are so proud of everything that the children have achieved this week and we had many lovely comments from the East Barnby staff about their exemplary behaviour, listening skills and resilience. They were a credit to Wheatcroft.

• Readathon News!!

  Fri 17 Mar 2023

  I am THRILLED to announce that our Wheatcroft Children have raised an utterly incredible £1,060 through their ‘Read for Good’ sponsored read!!! ⭐️💪👏🥳🎉
  
  Through their endeavour, motivation to help others and your support and generosity they have made a real difference to the lives of seriously ill children in hospital. The books and story teller visits paid for with the money raised will comfort, entertain, distract and reassure countless children. ❤️
  
  Many of the children who took part have discovered a new author they love, tried a new genre of books and have pushed themselves to read as much as they can. Also 20% of what they have raised will be given back to our school in the form of brand new books! I have more certificates ready for anyone for who has not yet handed in their sponsor cards - it’s not too late to take part! ⭐️
  
  Thank you.
  Thank you.
  Thank you.
