Walk to School Week 2025
Walk to School Week takes place next week running from Monday 19th May until Friday 23 May 2025 (when we break for half term).
During this week we are encouraging all our pupils to become Walking Warriors!
Walking to school is a fantastic way to start the day – it keeps us active, helps the environment, and even makes us feel more ready to learn. That’s why we’re encouraging all pupils to swap the car and take part in this exciting challenge!
Please feel free if you wish to send us photographs of your child walking to school next week that we can share in our Star of the Week assembly on Friday 23rd May. Please send any photographs to:headteacher@millfield.staffs.sch.uk
A digital leaflet about Walk to School Week is available by clicking here.
Remember we break up for half term on the final day of Walk to School Week (Friday 23rd May) with pupils returning on Tuesday 3rd June (Monday 2nd June is a staff training day).
Roadworks around school for the next three weeks - Expect disruption
We have been informed today of significant roadworks taking place around school from today (Tuesday 6th May) until Friday 23rd May.
Full details of these road works are available by clicking here - Coleshill Street Traffic Island scheme, Fazeley.
These roadworks are likely to cause significant disruption around school.
Parents / carers are advised to leave extra time for their journeys to and from school, and where possible leave the car at home for the next couple of weeks and walk to school (Walk to School Week is May 19th to 23rd)
Design Your Own Island! - Community Academies Trust Geography Competition -
Community Academies Trust Geography Competition - Design Your Own Island!
We have already had some fanatastic entries into our Design Your Own Island competition - and there is still time to enter, with this week's upcoming Bank Holiday Weekend a great time to complete your design!
Competition Details
All pupils are invited to take part in this exciting competition being organised by our trust (Community Academies Trust) and design their very own island!
This competition is their opportunity to unleash their creativity and think about important geographical features.
They will need to consider the island's climate, human and physical landscape features, as well as create a unique flag and currency. They will need to pinpoint their island’s location on a world map and add physical features like volcanoes, rivers, and mountains.
They can submit their island design in any form they wish - be it a 3D model, a dazzling poster, or as a design booklet / brochure. It’s up to them!
All island designs need to be returned to school by Wednesday 7th May. Good luck
Parents / carers are invited to come and join us on Friday 14th February 2025 for an online safety presentation focused on helping to empower parents / carers to keep their children safe and start key safeguarding conversations.
Welcome to Millfield Primary School part of the Community Academies Trust.
As head teacher of Millfield I am extremely proud of the role and responsibility I have of leading and managing the school and making it the very best that it can be.
These are challenging but exciting times for Millfield Primary as we continue to move forward and ensure that all of our pupils make the best possible progress and achieve at the highest possible level.
We work hard to ensure all our pupils experience an exciting, engaging curriculum at our school that provides them with the knowledge and skills needed for the next stage of their education and their future lives.
Reading is at the heart of our curriculum. It is the most important skill that we must teach our pupils to ensure that they become fluent readers as quickly as possible.
We want every pupil at this school to be a confident, fluent reader who not only reads to learn but also reads for pleasure.
I am, along with all staff and all governors, committed to making our school a centre of excellence. We are all dedicated to accepting nothing but the best for our school and doing everything in our power to help every single pupil achieve their very best.
If your require any further information about the school or wish to make an appointment to visit us please do not hesitate to contact the school office.
Mr S Kelly - Head Teacher
