Dear Parents and Carers, As I am sure many of you have felt this week, it is with some significant surprise that I realised we are in the sixth month of the year!
Warkworth is delighted to have reformed a school choir! Thanks to the dedication of two volunteers from the local church, we now have an active and willing group of budding singers who have already performed on multiple occasions despite being brand new! Firstly, they performed at the Christmas Light Switch On in the village (alongside Florence, Eliza and Hallie who won a local competition to hit the button to switch them on!) back in November which was a proud moment for the school as we continue to build strong links with our local community.
The choir’s singing received many compliments from villagers. More recently, thanks to the wonderful organisation of Mrs Glanville from the trust, the choir performed a medley of Christmas hits for families at the end of the day as well as care home residents at The Grange. We cannot wait for the new year ahead as the choir continues to go from strength to strength!

Following our # Strive Together as One worship, Amelia, Arthur, Zara and Fleur from KS2 decided to set NCEA Warkworth Primary up as a weekly drop off point for Amble Food Bank. They went around to each classroom and presented their idea to collect one item of food each week from each family and then organised for the whole school to make posters to advertise the collection to the community. Year 3/4 will be distributing these next week.
All items have been counted and last week, 110 items were collected but the new challenge for this week is 150 – watch this space!
