• WOW Badge Design Competition

  Fri 20 Jan 2023

  The WOW badge design competition is back for 2023!

  Our school could win some amazing WOW prizes and the opportunity to have our pupils' designs featured on the new WOW badges!

  This year's theme is: THE BRITISH NATURE WALK

  The competition ends on Monday 27th February 2023

  This year’s theme, The British Nature Walk, aims to bring pupils closer to the nature found across Britain!

  Wherever we live, nature is all around. Think of animals or insects found in urban or rural areas, vibrant flowers or mighty trees, lakes, rivers, canals or coastlines. You can also draw a special memory of nature from a recent holiday around Britain or from a different season.

  Entry forms will be given out in school and they need to be returned to Mrs Stillings no later than Monday 27th February - any questions please email Mrs Stillings at gstillings@athelstan.sheffield.sch.uk

• Sheffield Young Artists’ Competition

  Fri 13 Jan 2023

  We are thrilled to be taking part in the Sheffield Young Artists' competition this year. We'd love children in Y1 to Y6 to take part and create a piece of artwork at home for the competition.

  There is no theme in particular, so you can create any artwork you like!

  The only rules for entering the competition are that you must complete your artwork on thin card, canvas or paper, no larger than A4 size.

  You also need to write your full name, date of birth and class on the back of the artwork.  

  Please hand your artwork to your class teacher, no later than Tuesday 21st February (any artwork handed in after this date will not be accepted). All children who take part will receive an Artsmark certificate from their teacher.

  Our favourite pieces of artwork will then be chosen and submitted to the competition. Some will then be selected (and notified in March) to be displayed at The Sheffield Young Artists’ Main Exhibition which will be on 28th and 29th April at Central United Reformed Church, 60 Norfolk Street, S1 2JB.

  We look forward to seeing your art entries!

• Pupil Premium Funding

  Fri 06 Jan 2023

  If you feel your child may be entitled to income based free school meals, please contact the office, as this can be checked on your behalf, if you wish. Children who receive income based free school meals are also entitled to free milk, entry to breakfast club free of charge, along with additional support with reading. The extra funding the school receives makes a huge difference; if you are unsure if your child is entitled to this, please get in touch.
