Brass Monkey Run 2020

Submitted by Appleton on

What an amazing morning we had supporting the athletes who were running the Knavesmire Harriers half marathon this year.
We were really proud to see our parents running and being excellent role models for the children. It was also
incredible how many positive messages of thanks we received as a school for supporting on the day.
Even the front runners paused to clap as they passed the children holding out jelly babies to them! We look forward to an even
louder welcome next year1

Singing for BBC Radio York's Children in Need concert

Submitted by Appleton on

It was a huge honour for our choir – only formed in September! – to be invited to perform at the BBC Radio York Children In Need Concert at the Riley Smith Hall in Tadcaster on Sunday 6 December.
Performing alongside Beth McCarthy from BBC 1’s The Voice, blues singer Tom Townsend and country singer Nancy Ann Lee, our children stole the show with some fantastic singing, including a brave solo by Felicity Mercer in Small Part of the World and a special guest appearance by Gabriella Commins for the beautiful Agnus Dei.
