Last month, Class 6 had a visitor, Jay, to learn all about Diwali, linked to their learning in RE. Firstly, pupils in Class 6 attended an assembly, led by Jay, learning all about Diwali. From this, they then had a session with Jay and decorated their own Diwali jars.
After working so hard during lunchtimes this half term, show day was finally here! The KS2 Christmas choir performed beautifully this afternoon, getting every song, every dance, and every shake of a maraca or tambourine absolutely perfect! Well done, West Cornforth Choir!

Parent Governor ElectionsThe governors are delighted to have 4 applicants who would like to join our governing body. As there are only 2 vacancies we are holding a private ballot. All parents should receive a text with a link to Microsoft Forms.
Please note: Each parent of a registered pupil of the school will be allowed to vote. Irrespective of the number of their children who are registered pupils at the school, each parent will only be allowed one vote. The Headteacher will therefore ensure that where more than one member of a family attends the school only two votes are accepted from that family.
Please contact the school office if your contact details aren’t up to date and you haven’t received a text.
