Bridgewater School – Prep. Department

The summer holidays are here! That means no school for weeks, more sunny weather to enjoy and extra chances to have fun online. Lazy mornings on Minecraft. Bonus time on TikTok. Days watching Disney Plus. Whatever your child enjoys doing online, our #WakeUpWednesday guide has some top tips for helping them to stay safe in the digital world this summer! In the guide, you’ll find tips such as reporting bad behaviour online, making time for other hobbies and not giving out personal information.

A huge thank you to all of our children and parents. Your footwear donations reached a staggering 200 pairs (almost). Your generosity means that many school children in Salford will now feel the benefit, thanks to Emmaus Salford, where your donations have been sent to. Don’t forget that if you outgrow your school shoes or trainers over the summer holidays, you will be able to donate again on our return to school. Look out for the box at the front of the Prep. building.Thank you to Mrs Livsey for initiating our collection and for taking the shoes to Emmaus Salford. 

Eight weeks is a long tome to spend at home, so here is a challenge for you – home many of these tasks can you tick off the list before we come back to school in September? They’re not too challenging, and should be lots of fun to complete. You can send Mr. Suter photos of you doing them, and we’ll add them to the Prep Blog! Enjoy!

Enjoy a chance to view again this morning’s Moving On assembly for Prep VI.

Tissues at the ready!

It was lovely to see such a turn out of family and friends of the school to our Sports Day this afternoon. The weather was kind to us too. These are a selection of the photos taken today – enjoy!

Prep I and II enjoyed a fantastic day at the beach on Tuesday. We left a cloudy, drizzly Worsley but arrived in Lytham to clear blue skies.

The children had a great day building sandcastles, digging holes, searching for shells, burying each other in the sand and running or cartwheeling across the beach.  After our picnic we left the beach and had an ice cream and a play at the park.

All the children had a fantastic day…..it was a great way to end the year!

On 16th July, three Prep III girls will be competing in the Race For Life Pretty Muddy obstacle course, in order to raise funds for Cancer Research UK. To this end, Beatrice, Isabelle and Annie held a cake sale over two days in school, for Senior and Prep children, raising nearly £300 for their cause. Well done girls, and good luck in the mud!

There was great excitement this morning as our youngest athletes were put through their paces for their Sports Day. We hope these photos captured some of the excitement! Enjoy!
