We got off to a cracking start on our first day back as a staff team! We joined the other schools in our Trust for writing moderation and subject leader development! Staff feel incredibly well supported by our Trust, who are always helping us develop as professionals, so we can be the best we possibly can for the Park Street and ECM Trust! Team ECM!

Following the Schoolgirl District Football Trials, our very own Zunaira in Team LL was selected to represent her school district in the National and Regional competitions and has had the accolade of receiving her coveted tie, to be worn when representing her town!
Therefore, Mr Gates, once again, has been in to school to present Sunaira with her red tie. What an honour this is for Zunair and for the school. We now have Jacob in Team HG and Zunaira with their red ties! As a school we are so proud of their out of school achievements. We know they have excellent talents and it is wonderful that they are recognised out side of school, to such a high standard too! Well done Zunaira – we are so very proud! Today, our Year 6 Teams LL and AF have visited Crucial Crew in Rotherham. There, they learnt about key life skills and what to do if they were ever in danger. This is a fantastic day our which teaches all about safety, democracy, the rule of law, online safety, safeguarding and also challenges the children by putting them in situations they have never been in before, encouraging thinking skills and decision making! An excellent day out.
Mrs Longden reported that our Year 6s behaved impeccably well, using outstanding manners and also listened attentively, putting their all in to everything they did! Well done Year 6 - so proud and pleased you had an amazing day! Thank you to staff for organising this for the children. A BIG well done to Team JD and Team AF for their strong attendance rates last week!
Team JD - 99.2% Team AF - 99.2% Whole school - 95.6% Remember our target is 97% - let's go for it this week Park Street! A really big well done to Miss McGinnes, our Assistant Headteacher and Reading Leader, who has been awarded with the title of EYFS EAL Champion for Barnsley!
Over the last year or so, Miss McGinnes has worked hard as part of the EAL Champion project and has been at the forefront of professional development for herself and the school. I was very proud to be invited to The Fairway tonight, to see her be awarded this title! Well done Miss McGinnes! This was something which Miss McGinnes was very passionate about doing, as we have a rising number of children attending Park Street with English as an Additional Language (EAL) and she wanted to make sure that we, as a school, were doing everything we possibly could to engage such children and support them as best we possibly can. WELL DONE and THANK YOU Miss McGinnes! Our Year 6s have enjoyed visiting their local Secondary School, Netherwood, with staff this afternoon. This provided them with a taster for secondary school life, now they have all applied for the Secondary School of their choice. The afternoon gave them lots of food for thought and helped a few questions they all had, get answered! Thank you Netherwood for offering this event to our Year 6s. It is so important to support our children with early transition opportunities, so that they are as prepared as possible for the next chapter in their lives.
