A new and exciting opportunity has arrived! Come and join our fantastic team.
Year 6 took part in an interactive live session ran by the education team at Earth Watch. They leaned some interesting things and answered multiple choice questions as well as asking their own questions.
Year 6 were fortunate to have a visitor from Bilsthorpe Heritage Museum in to speak to year 6 about mining. We have a visit booked in to visit the Heritage Museum next week! We learnt some interesting facts and had the opportunity to see some of the equipment that they wore in the mines.
Year 6 enjoyed a "yes day" where they all had a YES token worth 10 minutes and (within boundaries) Mrs Pitts had to say yes! They've laughed, squealed and got soaked!!! Such a fun day!
Its the final day of SAT's for Year 6! You've all got this and we are so proud of you...its the final push.
Date for your diaries! Come and join us on the 18th of July to be part of our Summer Fair. Whether it be running your own stall or simply enjoying time with your children and seeing what on offer.
Good luck to year 6 who start their SAT's assessments today! We are so proud of all of your hard work and dedication!

The inspiration for this race is Mrs Pitts’s cousin Hazel - absolute legend, will do anything for anybody, always has a smile on her face and is genuinely one-in-a-million. After finding out she had cancer in April 2023, she went through 6 months of intensive chemo, 2 lots of surgery and 15 rounds of radiotherapy. All whilst bringing up two very young girls. In September 2024, she got the all-clear but sadly after feeling unwell and having more tests in March, she found out this month that the cancer is back and it's terminal. She's 39, has a husband a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old. It's heartbreaking.
Karen an amazing and much-loved member of staff at Bilsthorpe Flying High Academy, has also been given a similar diagnosis - stage 4 breast cancer which is treatable but incurable.
There are many other personal stories close to the hearts of staff at Bilsthorpe linked to this horrible disease. Doing this race won't change the situation for Hazel or Karen but it's one small way that as school team we are trying to help. Any donations are greatly appreciated.
