On Friday 16th December we’re inviting all pupils to take part in Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day.

The whole school will be taking part. You won’t need to splash out on a snazzy new sweater to join the fun-simply decorate an old woolly jumper or just come in something festive e.g. tinsel, a Christmas hat or come dressed up as Father Christmas- it’s up to you.

We’re asking pupils to make a £1 donation, or whatever they can give, to help save children’s lives across the world. 

If you would like more information about Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day, please see www.christmasjumperday.org

Thank you for your support.

Merry Christmas.

Fishergate School Council

 

Fishergate is Famous!

As you may already know, Y3/4 children in Miss Teale and Mrs Ekers’ class have a link with Willow House through the Musical Connections project. Every term we take part in a music workshop with residents from Willow House care home around a topic we are covering in school. This intergenerational work has shown to have real benefits for both children and residents.

Have you ever wondered how you can get a sneaky peak of what we do in our sessions? Well, now you can! This video features children from Fishergate and other York schools taking part in workshops and talks about the benefits for everybody involved in intergenerational work through the Musical Connections project.  We would love it if you took a look at our fantastic children in action!

Champions of Change Success!

In July the Champions of Change team came second in a Primary Schools Windfall competition organised by York Rotary Club. The group had to come up with a project which would benefit all pupils at Fishergate. The project, which they are…

Such talented artists!

The children in Mrs Engleman’s watercolours club have produced some beautiful artwork, and we thought we would share their latest pieces with you.  Click on a picture to enlarge it!
