Shoe Share

If your child's school shoes are getting a little snug and you plan to replace for September, please donate them to help other children around the world to access their right to an education.

Please send children in on the last day of school with alternative footwear for the journey home and we will deliver our total collection to Clarks of Rayleigh.

Last year we collected 145 pairs of shoes. Help us
to beat that total!

The Playground Challenge with Key Stage 1

At school today we all had a fabulous time celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Down Hall Primary School and completing the Playground Challenge for UNICEF.  Everyone had a go at the obstacle course... even the Duty Bearers! 

Monies raised will be shared between global charity UNICEF and local charity Little Havens.  Well done and thank you to everybody that took part and made the day such fun.

Cutting The Cake in Amethyst Class

We all had a fabulous afternoon in Key Stage 1 where we played party games to celebrate our 50th Anniversary - the PTA even brought us an ice lolly halfway through! Here we are in Amethyst Class, with our Class Councillor "cutting" the cake. What a special day!

Sports day

A reminder that this Friday 5th is sports day. If you have not filled out a picnic form your child will not be able to be collected for a picnic. If you have not already completed a form, you can find them on the school website or you can collect one from the office. 

Your child will need to wear their PE kit all day and can wear a top which is their house colour (same colour as water bottle lids). Please remember sun cream as it is likely to be a hot day.

If you are having a picnic you will need to collect your child outside their classrooms at 12pm when the gates open. The teachers will then be on the field at the end of lunch time to bring the children back to class. 

If you are just attending sports day and not having a picnic  the gates will open at 12pm and you will need to arrive no later than 12:15pm as this is when the gates will be closed and not reopened. 

At the end of sports day children will go back to their classes and will be ready to get collected at 3:15. 

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
