Curriculum Magic

Many thanks to Hywel Roberts who visited Birkwood for a fantastic CPD session for all staff. Hywel talked about his books ‘Botheredness’ and ‘Oops!’ as well as discussing a variety of ways to boost learning across our Birkwood Curriculum. A superb session that was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
 

Festive Feast

Many thanks to our lovely Lunchtime Team – Christmas Dinner was superb! Our new Kitchen made its Christmas Lunch debut and fed a lot of grateful and hungry customers; we had a super time enjoying a delicious, traditional lunch.

Five Star Service!

Huge congratulations to Sarah & her amazing Kitchen Team! We are officially ‘5 star rated’ after an unannounced inspection of the School Kitchen. (of course it arrived on the busiest day of the school meals year!) It could not be any better and everyone at Birkwood wishes to congratulate and thank our School Meals Team for the sterling service which they provide. Brilliant news!
 

Barnsley in Bloom 2023

We did it We were given a GOLD AWARD by the Yorkshire in Bloom judges at Barnsley Town Hall. We are so very PROUD of all the children who accepted the award on behalf of everyone who gardens with Miss Greenwood in KS1 and KS2. Huge thanks too to David, our super volunteer and of course to Miss Greenwood herself. It was also super to see families of the gardeners come and enjoy the evening.
