Our Anti-bullying Alliance group at Widey have so far raised over £400 completing a sponsored silence today between 9am and 3 on! We will release a final amount once it’s all in and counted. The money will go towards resources to help all children in the school with their emotions and provide a safe space for children to go during lunch time if they need it… watch this space! Well done team! Thank you to their families and friends for supporting this event and Miss Davies for organising it! 🤐⭐️🤐⭐️🤐⭐️🤐⭐️

We will miss you Mrs Wesemann! Thank you for everything you’ve done to support the Widey children, families and staff! Wishing you so much happiness in your new ventures! 💚⭐️💚⭐️

‼️Red Nose Soya Allergy‼️ Good morning everyone! We have been made aware last night that the red noses have been made out of soya beans and we have a little girl in Oak Class who is allergic to soya. We would really appreciate your support in keeping our little friend safe today in light of this news. We will ensure today that, if red noses are brought in, we will keep them in the classroom and will wash hands / sanitise before leaving. Many thanks for your support with this! ❤️ We know we are in for a lovely day with red non-uniform day, Danceathon session in the hall and a yummy biscuit made by our wonderful Becky and the team! Raising money for a worthy cause! Thank you! 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴
