Miss Carless joined the school as a teacher many years
ago and quickly became a very special member of our
school community so every one of us, children, staff and
parents, was sad to hear that Miss Carless would be
Yorkshire Marathon! Bonnie
leaving us in July of this year. But who could stay sad for
Steel ran her third Yorkshire
long knowing that Miss Carless was leaving us to set off
Marathon in October 2017,
on the most wonderful adventure that dreams are made achieving her best time too!
of, to travel through jungles, kayak down rivers, swim in
waterfalls, explore exotic beaches and go on safari? Miss Carless
brought so much to our school and we know how lucky we were to
have her as a teacher in both Year 4 and then
Reception and Year 1, where her amazing
classroom, fabulous ideas and incredible
teaching filled children's days with excitement
and helped them to do their very best. We
know the children who worked with Miss
Carless will miss her terribly, but the grown-ups
in school will miss her just as much, although
she is not yet able to escape them as they are
making sure Miss Carless keeps them up to date
with exactly where her travels are taking her and
what exciting adventures await. We do hope that Miss Carless visits
us in school when she returns from her travels in South East Asia
and we wish her all the luck and happiness in the world for the
years ahead.

Mr Falkingham came to the school at the beginning
of this year to train as a Classroom Assistant in our
Pre-School, where he played such a special part in
the children's days, and to help run the Pre-Prep
After School Care. Mr Falkingham was great fun
and always made time for the children, teaching
them new games, enjoying sports and helping
them to play together. Mr Falkingham is multi-
talented and was known by everyone in school for his dedication
to the school Swim Squad and fabulous swim coaching, which led
to an unprecedented run of victories for the school team. He
also played an important part in lunchtime football training and in
Pre-School PE. It is no surprise then that Mr Falkingham was
offered a job with Camp America and travelled to America in
June of this year to spend the Summer season with them. We
hope that Mr Falkingham enjoyed a Summer he will remember
forever and wish him much luck and happiness.

Oscar Denton Holtby

Weighing 8lb 14oz
3 favourite things:
1 Cuddles and kisses (especially from his big
brother and sister)
2 When I sing nursery rhymes to him (especially
baa baa black sheep and row row your boat)
3 Bath time
Least favourite things:
1 Having his feet touched ( I think he might be ticklish)
2 Hiccups
3 The phone ringing (I think the loud noise startles him)
A message from our Deputy Head, Mrs Cobb:
“It was with HUGE excitement and great joy that, on Thursday 10th May
2018, we heard the very lovely news that Mrs Holtby, our Pre-School
teacher, had given birth to Oscar Denton Holtby. Oscar is a little brother
for Ella and Arthur who immediately fell in love with him, just as his
mummy and daddy did. They were not the only ones however as lots of
the grown ups in school immediately loved him too! We all think Mrs
Holtby is very clever to have made such a gorgeous little boy and we look
forward to watching Oscar grow. We can definitely recommend a pretty
good Pre-School and School for him when he gets a little bit older!
Everyone in school sends all of their love and congratulations to Mr and
Mrs Holtby, Ella and Arthur and all of their love and best wishes for Oscar
too.”
