Well done to our all girls netball team for a win in a local tournament today! They worked really well as a team and great preparation for their onwards journey to the netball county finals. Mrs Stewart - thank you so very much for your excellent coaching to all the girls every Tuesday, ably supported by Yasmin (an ex pupil skilled at sport). We keep seeing these girls succeed in different competition stages - thank you. Mr Elliott - as always - thank you for all the preparation and encouragement to our children.

Well done girls - we will all be behind you at the County Finals on Thursday! ... See MoreSee Less

What a brilliant trip our children have had today to Holdenby House. Thank you very much to grown ups at home for some great outfits, to Miss Piotrowska for planning the trip and to Coach Jade and Andy Burgess for also joining and help to make the day magical. Miss Piotrowska said:

"We started off the day with learning about rationing and helping out in the kitchen. We grated, cut, made pastry and made decorations for small cakes (for special occasions only). We also made sure that our vegetables were cut into little pieces so that they cooked faster and we didn’t have any waste!
We then learnt about clothes rationing; we used needles for sewing buttons, used wool for pom poms, wrote post cards to the soldiers and were lucky enough to play with some toys from that era.
We ended the day by going down to the cellar and listened to a real life recording of a broadcast about the bomb alarm and bombing sounds. We were very brave!"

Do enjoy the photos - we certainly have enjoyed seeing them! ... See MoreSee Less

The children have had a wonderful week - lots of dance lessons and PE. They have loved seeing their friends and are back working very hard. Now all we need is more sunshine for the time that they love outside!

We really value our immediate and wider community and sometimes we receive some really kind donations. One we will share before the end of the school year. Enough has been donated for us to create a new story themed area. Today my Friday post is to thank the wonderful Mrs Lorna Frances Bailey who recently died at the age of 87, leaving the most magical, kind thought to us in her memory. Rather than have flowers at her funeral, she requested that donations were taken to be given to us to buy books for our library and we were stunned by how much we have to spend on the children's books. Her daughters, Karen and Jo, as well as their own daughters, attended our school in the past. They describe how their Mum - an avid reader - always shared her love of books with them. Now she leaves the gift of books to our current pupils. The new books will first be displayed in the wardrobe in our new Narnia display so that children can view the choices. Karen and Jo - we look forward to welcoming you back to Blisworth to see what your Mum enabled us to buy. Thank you.

Some of our children seem worn out - I think they were so excited to be back that they have put every ounce of energy into their days!

Let's hope for some warmer weather - have a great weekend, everyone!

What a wonderful thing to do. When I was a primary school librarian, (George Lishman’s Nanny)this happened too. We made a lovely bookplate in the persons name who enabled us to do this.

Thank you for such a wonderful tribute to our lovely mum and nanna. As already mentioned, my two daughters Rachel and Lauren and Jo's daughter, Madeline attended the school from 1991- 2010. The reading corner and library were always a favourite place for all three. Mum, who lived in Kent at the time, would attend as many school plays, special assemblies, May Queen and Easter hat parades that she could manage to get time off work to attend. We all have the very best memories of Blisworth school and only this last Christmas, mum's last one with us as it turned out, our girls were singing, word perfectly, The Blisworth song! Mum absolutely loved it! She left a note with her Will, that any tributes in her memory were to go towards the school library. She would read to and with her three granddaughters regularly with a particular favourite being the Flower Fairies by Cicely Mary Barker which mum also read as a child. It gives us real joy and pride to know her last wishes will bring so much pleasure to the children today and in the future. Jo and I are looking forward to joining you soon, thank you so much for inviting us. X

It's been great having our children back at school. The photos are of their time outside catching up with friends, some time in the forest area for our younger pupils, some in class and some visitors to my office and a look in the fairytale mirror... and a few muddy knees! Post two to follow! ... See MoreSee Less

We are really excited to receive our children's details for Reception places in September and who will be joining the Blisworth School family. Familiar families where older children attend and new families, too. It is lovely to begin the next stage of your children's journey with you. We are now working out the dates with home visits and so forth so we can get these to you as soon as possible. Some of you are travelling quite a distance to us so we need to make sure we plan the visit dates well!

For those of you who have spoken to me about wanting to apply in the second allocation, the good news is that there are currently a few places. Anyone yet to apply, we do expect to have a couple of places left so do come and see us for a tour if you would like to.

Get choosing the teddy bears! We will send you the picnic date and other information very soon.
