FOMS Needs You! Come and join us on Wednesday 24th September
The next FOMS (Friends of Millfield School) meeting is taking place next week on Wednesday 24th September from 7.00pm until 8.00pm in the function room at the Three Tuns in Fazeley.
The FOMS Committee has some very exciting ideas for events and fundraising this term, but we can't do it all by ourselves. We need more members to help plan and setup these events, such as the school discos, otherwise they may not be able to happen.
Many of you will have seen our Funday Fridays events in the summer term, and we are very grateful for the help we had from parents to make them such a success.
We want to continue to build on these events and raise some more money to support projects in school, while doing fun things for the children.
We will be looking at planning some Christmas events and would love to see you there!
Remember, being part of FOMS does not have to be a big time commitment, any input you can give would be most welcome! Please email foms.millfield@gmail.com with any questions or ideas.
Want to know more about FOMS?
FOMS exists to support the school by raising as much money as we can to enhance, enrich and improve learning experiences for the children.
We also often contribute to those 'little extras' that make school memorable, such as leavers’ hoodies and sports uniforms.
We also exist to bring the communities of school and home closer together because it makes sense for parents and carers to be involved in the life of the school.
Lastly, we’re here for the simple reason that we want to get together socially, meet new people!
FOMS is run by a committee who are all volunteers, and we are always looking for new people to join us, to bring in new ideas and help plan and run our fundraising events.
The more people become involved, the more we can achieve and the easier it will be. Even if you have younger children at home, or only a small amount of time, could you come to a meeting, help set up an event, serve food or design a poster?
Perhaps you have a professional skill you could help us out with? You don't have to come into the school; many of our volunteering tasks can be done from home.
We would love to meet more parents, grandparents, relatives, get to know each other and grow the FOMS network.
Roadworks Coleshill Street and Atherstone Street - Expect disruption
You will have seen from the signs on the roads outside of school that significant roadworks are scheduled to start next week (Monday 15th September) and are due to last until the 10th October.
This work is likely to cause serious disruption and we would urge all parents / carers to try to avoid driving to school during this time and walk to school where possible.
Full details of the works including road closures are available by clicking here.
What's your favourite Roald Dahl book?
Our Author of the Month for September 2025 is one of the most prolific and popular children's authors of all time - Roald Dahl.
Our assemblies this week will be all about Roald Dahl and his books and some of our children will be taking part in Roald Dahl workshops as we celebrate Roald Dahl Day on the 13th September.
Be prepared for your children to ask you what your favourite Roald Dahl story was when you were at school.
Why not read a Roald Dahl story together this month to celebrate Roald Dahl day this month?
Keep on reading!
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 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
