❤️This week at Oakwood ‘love was in the air’ as we celebrated our friendships and love for each other and our families. On Friday, at both the main site and at the satellite we all enjoyed our ‘Valentine’s Disco Day’. We danced to all our favourite party songs, played party games and enjoyed eating themed party food. We even took part in lots of fun Valentine’s activities such as decorating Valentine’s cupcakes and created our own bunting.

It was lovely to see so many smiles and hear so much laughter throughout our ‘Valentine’s Disco’. It was also a wonderful way to celebrate all our hard work this half term.❤️

We would like to say a very special thank-you to our PSA for funding our special disco day. 💗💗

We’d like to say a huge thank you to Monique and Lee from the Balloon Studio for donating a Valentines balloon arch for our celebrations tomorrow! We are having a Valentines disco and class parties. The support we get from the community is much appreciated!

A big thank you to everyone who donated prizes and bought tickets for the P.S.A. Christmas Raffle. We raised an amazing £548! Well done everyone.

We have received these lovely treats from Iceland Foods. We would like to send a huge thank you and wish them a very Merry Christmas! These will be used for class Christmas parties for all to enjoy. We are very lucky to have the support of the wider community.

Last week at Oakwood we celebrated the return of our ‘Makaton Choir’. Our Makaton Choir takes place on a Friday lunchtime and we have lots of fun singing and signing together. Throughout our sessions a range of total communication resources are available to support everyone to become involved.

This week we proudly welcomed both old and new members and we all had a wonderful time sharing and using our fantastic singing and signing skills when performing one of our favourite songs ‘My School’. Please see the video link below to join in at home.

In the next few weeks we are looking forward to welcoming even more of our friends and we will be beginning to practice and perform some of our harvest songs, ready for our harvest celebrations.

At Oakwood, on Friday 1st October 2021 both staff and children took part in fundraising to help raise money for a very special cause ‘Macmillan Cancer Support’. In classes, all children had a fantastic time getting creative when decorating their own cakes to eat in school or some even took them home, we all created amazing unique designs. WELL DONE TO ALL!!! Our Oakwood staff also helped raise money by holding our own staff cake sale.

We would like to say a ‘huge thankyou’ to all parents for your very kind donations, they were greatly accepted. Please keep your eyes peeled to our school website and school app to find out how much we have raised at Oakwood.

On Friday we have had an absolutely amazing summer fun day, celebrating all our hard work this year and also wishing our Year 6 leavers good luck for their next exciting adventure in secondary school.
We had a wonderful time bouncing on the bouncing castle and playing with water and sand in our outdoor learning areas, we especially enjoyed making sandcastles and having water fights. 💦
We were extremely lucky to have chance to experience sitting inside two amazing super and luxury cars 🚙 as well as enjoyed a very yummy ice cream from the ice cream van 🍦 We would also like to thank NA Cars for the very kind donation to help make our day very special.

During our celebration day, we especially enjoyed our picnic themed lunchtime in our own party time boxes, including pizza and chips or ham or cheese sandwiches, cake and juice.
We all had a super fun day and created many special memories 🌟🎉
