England’s Next Match

We know that the upcoming England World Cup match is scheduled to take place beyond the bedtime of many of our children. While we are all excited to support England, we also recognise the importance of children getting a good night’s sleep so that they are ready to learn and enjoy the next school day.
To help families avoid any pressure to stay up late, we will be showing the extended highlights of the match in classes the following morning. This will give all children the opportunity to enjoy the excitement, key moments and goals alongside their friends and teachers during the school day.
To make the occasion even more special, children are invited to wear their favourite football shirt, football kit or England colours to school.
We kindly ask families to help us keep the excitement alive by avoiding discussing or sharing the score with children before they arrive at school, as many will be looking forward to watching the highlights together.
We are looking forward to hopefully celebrating a win for England as a school community and hope this approach allows children to enjoy the occasion while still maintaining their usual bedtime routines.

Primary to Secondary Transition: Summer Workshop

Good morning

Early Help and Healthy Lives are delivering 4 workshops across North East and North West hubs.

Primary to Secondary Transition: Summer Workshop

Moving from primary to secondary school can be both exciting and challenging. Young people often struggle with adjusting to a larger, more complex environment, new routines, and having multiple teachers, which can feel overwhelming. They may also face social challenges such as making new friends and fitting in, alongside increased academic expectations and responsibility.

To support this transition, healthy lives advisors in Shropshire are working with Early Help to offer group sessions that help young people manage these challenges. Parents can sign up their child for a one-off session using the attached form.

Dates are as follows:

North East – All workshops will be held at Raven House in Market Drayton.

  • Tuesday 4th August
  • Tuesday 25th August

North West – All workshops will be held at Castle view in Oswestry.

  • Thursday 30th July
  • Thursday 27th August

All workshops will be 10.00-11.30am.

Primary to Secondary Transition: Summer Workshop – Fill in form

Please can all forms be completed by 5th July.
