Sports Days 2025
Thank you to all of you who came to watch our Sports Day at Spofforth school. It was lovely to see so many people there to support the children and I know it really elevated the atmosphere and made their day really special.
Congratulations to all the children in the WATER team as they came first, with 483 points overall!

Well done to all our Year 6’s across the Federation who completed the bikeability, levels 1&2 last week. This is a governments national cycle training programme which helps children learn practical skills and understand how to cycle on today’s roads.

Years 1&2 trip to Tropical World
Years 1 and 2 from Spofforth and Follifoot had a great day out at Tropical World just before the half term holiday. There was a workshop in the morning, and they found out lots about Food Chains and the difference between prey and predator, they even talked about apex predators. A couple of children were chosen to get dressed up as a gecko and meerkat and we talked about their characteristics. We then went off to Tropical World and saw so many wonderful animals which included fish, stingray, spiders, birds, butterflies, large tortoises and some very sleepy meerkats. We had so much fun!
