The after school clubs for Spring term will start the week commencing 24^th February 2025

and will be up to the week we break up for the Easter holidays. Sessions will run after school until 4.15pm each week. The cost will be £5 for the half term. The after school clubs have been altered following parental feedback with KS2 now on all the same evening:

You will need to book on parent mail. Payment must be made in full (£5) for the term when booking a place. We are unable to reserve places without payment. Places are limited and will be on a first come first served basis. Please note that payments for after school clubs are non-refundable.

This term, every week we will be looking at children’s attendance and all those children who have 100% attendance for the week will be put in to a draw to win 10 Dojos. There will be one random winner from each class.  To ensure your child is entered into this weekly draw, all you have to do is make sure they are in school on time every day.  Thank you for your continued support.

A reminder that meal patterns are set per half term. You cannot swap or change in between. If you wish for your child’s meal pattern to change after February half term you will need to email the school office:

office@marlandhill.rochdale.sch.uk no later than Friday 21 February. Thank you.

A big thank you to the parents who put themselves forward for our parent governor vacancy.  Following an election process we are delighted to inform you that Nabila Shaheen was the successful candidate and will be joining the Governing Board.

As part of their History topic, Year 6 have been learning about World War 2 and will be visiting the Imperial War Museum on Monday 3^rd March 2025.
