STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION

Following approval of the school’s recent application to become an Academy, and receiving an Academy Order from the DfE, the Local Governing Body of Apley Wood are carrying out a consultation with all stakeholders of the local community. The aim of the consultation is to  approach stakeholders asking them whether they are happy for the school to become an Academy and join REAch2 Academy Trust in entering into a funding agreement with the Secretary of State to establish a new primary academy. This consultation is in accordance with Section 5 of the Academies Act (2010).

The consultation will commence on Monday 15th January 2024 at 9:00am, and close on Thursday 29th February 2024 at 5:00pm.

A parent meeting will take place at school on Monday 29th January 2pm-3pm where there will be opportunity to ask questions and meet some of the REAch2 Team.

09.01.24 – Year 5 are lost in the Amazon!

As part of our new Love to Read lessons, Year 5 had experienced an ‘aeroplane crash’ and were deserted in the Amazon Rainforest! They had to build a den that would shield them and protect them from the wilderness that is the Amazon Rainforest!

 

With only the blurb information to go from, Year 5 were also asked to generate a front cover for the text ‘The Explorer’ by Katherine Rundell. We think you will agree that they are quite the art masterpieces!

 

London Parents’ Meeting

Just a reminder that there will be a short meeting on Monday 15th January at 3:30 in base 13 for any parents whose children are going on the London trip.

This meeting is not compulsory as the key information was given on the original letter sent in June however this meeting will inform parents of the plan for the two days in slightly more detail, specifically including what the children will and won’t need to bring with them.
