There are 45 of our Year 6 children at Ford Castle, here is a look into what they are up to while they are away. Keep checking back as more photographs will be added as they are sent to the office…
September Attendance Reward
The whole school attendance for September is 97.07% which is an excellent start to the year. Last September is was 96.75%. We have had a few children absent with sickness, but this does not seem to be to much of an issue. Please continue to inform school each day if your child is absent, this ensures there are no unauthorised absences which then instigate further action and monitoring.
The attendance by year group is as follows:
Year 3 – 97.55%
Year 4 – 97.61%
Year 5 – 95.40% – Come on year 5…lets go for it for October!
Year 6 – 97.88% – EXCELLENT YEAR 6
As year 6 have achieved the best attendance for September each child in year 6 will be given a cake/giant cookie this Friday (4th October) as their reward.
Class 8 (Miss Waters) have achieved the reward for the best class attendance at a phenomenal 98.38%, well done! The Class 8 reward for this is a FREE non-uniform day which will also be on Friday 4th October.
Classes 1 and 3 were very close in joint second position with an attendance of 97.74%
This Seasons First Cross Country Race
It was an absolute priveldge to be part of this seasons first race. We took 25 members of our weekly cross country training to the first race at Catchgate Primary tonight and every single child ran their socks off.

Recent Kitchen Awards
Goods news from a catering team, Keith and Nicky…
“I would just like to take some time to tell you of some excellent results for your School Kitchen and its catering service that is offered to the children.
In the last 2 weeks we have had three separate annual assessments. They all came at once!
Firstly, our Taylor Shaw run kitchen was awarded a 100% rating in its annual Durham County Council Performance Assessment. This rates food quality and nutrition, safe working practices as well as staff performance and interaction with our customers, your children.
Secondly, the Kitchen has also become the joint highest performing in the local area as assessed by Internal Audit and Performance Assessors who work on behalf of Taylor Shaw and its parent company, Elior. These specifically look at the areas of Food Safety/Hygiene and Health and Safety.
Lastly, your Kitchen has again been awarded a Level 5 Rating by Durham County council Environmental Health Department is its very recent inspection.
These inspections and assessments show that we are ensuring your child is being given an individual service which provides top quality nutritional ingredients in a safe and welcoming environment.
We welcome you to share in the success of your school kitchen and the peace of mind as parents in ensuring your child is enjoying a balanced meal in a friendly and safe environment.”
Well done Keith and Nicky!!!
Bearly Believable!
Well, what an exciting week we have had in Year 6! We arrived at school on Wednesday morning to find a crime scene! On further investigation, we predicted that an animal had entered school through an open window and completely ransacked class 8. We were later informed by Sgt Raine that a grizzly bear had made its way from Edinburgh zoo to Consett in the luggage compartment of a bus. We’ve decided to write a newspaper report on the incident to inform the local community.
