A flyer has been sent out to all children to encourage them to take part, see posters around school.

All participating children must email the school's 500 WORDS competition email with their fiction story by 28 February and the school's English Team will then submit your story to the Radio 2 website.  Send entries to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

We are running our own competition in school too so this is the best way to submit your story, but you can submit your story directly to Radio 2 Website <RADIO 2 500 WORDS T&C>

The staff and children are delighted to be chosen to be a Music Ambassader Award school until 2014 by Warrington Borough Council.

From all the applications, based on its high level of music commitment and achievement, the school was notified along with two other schools,  Culcheth Community School and St Peter's Catholic School.

The role of a Music Ambassader Award school is to support the devlopment of music education throughout the locality and the town.  The school will be working with Janice Pounds, Adviser for Arts and Culture, and Warrington Music Service to develop support for youngsters within a range of schools.

Your school's Chapel Choir went down a storm at their latest concert performed last night (Sat 15 Oct) at St Margaret's and All Hallows Church.  Singing alongside a line up of the Warrington renowned Centenary Theatre Company, the children created raptuous applause at the end of each song. They sang their signature tune; The Lord's My Shepherd and other songs including 'I got the Power' as a finale.

The children enjoyed the dramatised songs from Fiddle on the Roof and other musicals performed by CTC and the children even sold a number of copies of their recently produced CD to the audience.

The Chapel Choir are next performing at Sir Thomas Botler High School later this term, at the school's own Carol Service during the Christmas period and then at the MEN Arena in Manchester in February.

Well done to all who made last night a terrific success, the church, the theatre company, Mrs Mowbray and the staff who turned up to support, as well as of course the children.
