Tesco Stronger Starts are supporting schools' outdoor learning, (Forest Schools), via the Blue Token Scheme. Participating stores for Cams Lane are the Tesco Express on Water Street, Radcliffe. Tesco express, Manchester Road, Kearsley and Tesco Supermarket on Long Causeway, Farnworth.

Cams Lane is fundraising to set up Forest School provision for the 210 children that attend our school. In partnership with Forest School specialists Nature Wild, we plan to transform an area of our disused land into an inspiring outdoor learning space centred around nature and inspired by its surroundings. Through this unique approach to outdoor education, we hope to nurture children’s independence, confidence and creativity whilst deepening their connection to nature.  The project is fully inclusive and will also provide valuable provision for our children with SEND as well as providing opportunities to further engage with our wider community, including the residents of our neighbouring care home.

Tell family and friends to help with our fundraising by popping the blue tokens into our slots at the participating stores.

Many thanks

From classic favourites to modern heroes, there were lots of recognisable characters filling the classrooms and corridors - hopefully, the costumes didn’t get too mucky at lunchtime! The children looked amazing, fully embracing the spirit of the day.

KS1 enjoyed a variety of book-themed activities, bringing stories to life. Meanwhile, KS2 took part in the online live BBC event, learning about different genres and sharing in the joy of reading. A highlight was when all of KS2 read together for 30 seconds - showing our love for books as one big reading community!

Our reading ambassadors delivered a selection of non-fiction library books to expand the range of books available in classrooms. These will be changed by the ambassadors every two weeks.

A huge thank you to all our parents for your support in making the day so special. It was wonderful to see the excitement and enthusiasm across the whole school!

We are excited to announce that the athlete who will be visiting us will be Sean Gaffney! After an accident preparing for the Royal Tournament in 1999 left him with a leg amputation which led to 25 surgeries, Sean did not let his journey stop there. Battling cancer twice with unwavering grit, he’s triumphantly competed in both the Invictus Games and Commonwealth Games. Sean’s story is one of incredible resilience, proving that with determination, even the toughest challenges can lead to extraordinary achievements.
