    This Trustees’ Week, we’d like to thank our trustees and governors for the time, expertise, and commitment they bring to our trust and for always providing more to our community.

    Behind every board meeting are individuals who volunteer their skills, provide support and challenge, and help shape decisions that have a lasting impact on our schools and communities.

    Much of that contribution happens behind the scenes, but it doesn’t go unnoticed.

    Thank you for everything you do.

    🌺 As well as attending our local cenotaph yesterday, our Ethos Leaders paid tribute to the fallen at Rochdale Cenotaph. Lest we forget.

    🌺As we begin to celebrate our school value of ‘Respect’, we turn our attention to Remembrance Day this week. Remembrance is always an important moment in our school calendar. Before half-term, children worked with other classes to create poppies for display in Rochdale. On Wednesday, we will gather at our Balderstone Cenotaph, the school playground and at Rochdale Cenotaph to remember.
