Click to download from the CYC website

The 31st October, which is the closing date for secondary school applications, is fast approaching! Have you remembered to complete and submit an application for your child’s secondary school place in September 2026?

Please note that applying early does not give any priority but to have the best chance of your application being successful, and getting a place at your choice of school, you should complete and submit your application by the deadline. Applications can still be made after this date, but may be looked at after other applications have been considered.

Halloween Disco

Volunteers needed! Without your help, events like this wouldn’t happen, so thank you! Please email friendsoffishergateschool@gmail.com if you can help at the first disco, the second disco, or both. Duties include door entry, selling glow sticks and monitoring spaces like the Quiet Room.

**Reminders**: £2.00 entry per child. Children must be accompanied by an adult. We cannot allow entry of children from other schools, though siblings are welcome. Children are restricted from using smartphones at the disco.

Monday’s bake sale raised a fantastic £72.20 and was beautifully stocked with loads of homemade goodies! Well done on the professional-looking bakes, Year 3/4 Families! Thank you to all who stopped by for a treat! Friends of Fishergate
