A huge thank you to Steve from One Day Creative Company, who treated both classes to a brilliant drama workshop to support the children's knowledge and awareness of Black History. The Swallows learnt the story of Rosa Parks whilst the Eagles travelled through a timeline of slavery meeting individuals of significance such as Martin Luthur King and Abraham Lincoln. Steve was mightily impressed with our pupils!

• Vernon's Ultra Ultra Marathon Visit

  Thu 16 Nov 2023

  What an exciting morning we had when Vernon Kay came past our school as part of his ultra ultra marathon in aid of Children in Need. We had done lots of preparation to make sure we gave him the best Edale Primary welcome and it was perfect that it happened to be on a Mr Corker morning so we could serenade him with the Radio 2 theme tune as he arrived. We think it's the inspirational quotes and power pack, which we'd made for him that spurred him onto the finish!
