WANTED - Spare Clothes

Added on by School Administrator.

Dear Parents / Carers

At school we keep some spare school uniform, PE kit, underwear etc for those occasions when children may need to borrow an item of clothing. We are desperately short of the following items. 

  • Boys' school trousers - all ages

  • Jogging bottoms - all ages

  • Girls' tights - all ages

 If you can donate any of the above, we would be most grateful.  Please pop them in a bag and leave them with Reception.

Please remember that if your child does come home in clothing borrowed from school, that we would like them washed and returned!

 Thank you

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Neston Primary School will be supporting Children’s Mental Health Week which runs from Monday 7th February to Sunday 13th February. During this week, we will be participating in a number of different activities to support our mental well-being and to raise awareness of the importance of taking care of our mental health and well-being.

To end the week, we are inviting children to come into school wearing a scarf on Friday 11th February. No donation is required for this and as always, this is an optional event. The scarves will help in supporting the teaching of our PSHE values;

S – Safety   

C – caring

A – achievement

R – resilience

F – friendships

We are looking forward to seeing and hearing about all of the fabulous scarves that will be on display and don’t forget to wear your scarf at drop off and pick up too!
