Have a great holiday!

We would like to wish everybody at Skyswood a wonderful Summer Holiday. The last couple of weeks have been as busy as ever, with our incredibly successful Summer Fair and Sports Day. The Year 6 class enjoyed their trip to Legoland and the traditional Leaver's Barbeque. They also put on a fantastic Leaver's Assembly on the final day of term. We wish them continued success and will be thinking of them all as they move up to their respective secondary schools in September.

We have added a couple of lovely photograph folders in our Images section (About Skyswood.) These include photos of the 50th Anniversary Re-union Summer Fair, Sports Day and Woodlands Nursery Sports Day.

Have a good break!

Summer Fair Success!

The Skyswood Summer Re-Union Fair was a fantastic success. The sun shone and several former pupils and staff joined our current Skyswood community in enjoying a wonderful day. The school was buzzing with activity as the Fair officially opened at four. Several stalls, an excellent events arena and some lovely displays around the school all added to the occasion.
