It was a momentous day yesterday, as the Chair of the OSA Gill Handley-Garland, the Treasurer Gary Chafe and a long standing committee member Charmaine Wilson were presented with a leaving gift from the other members of the committee. They have been responsible for raising thousands of pounds for the school through holding highly successful events such as the Christmas and Summer fayres. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to Oakwood.

We had a fantastic day completing our non-stop 15 minutes of activity for our Groundforce Move-a-Thon. Thank you to everyone who managed to collect sponsorship money - all of this will go towards our plans for improving our school grounds!
A big thank you to TMC who supported us with the day and made it lots of fun!

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who planned, prepared, helped, came along, spent money, had a burger or an ice cream, played a game, had a flutter on a raffle, picked a tombola ticket, sang, danced, won a coconut, golfed, kicked a goal, nerfed a target, had their nails or face painted, designed a mask, had a cuppa and a cake, climbed or jumped over obstacles, or, in Ms Patchett's case, got gunged!
The OSA Summer Fete was a massive success and a lovely community event - a wonderful day for the Oakwood Family!
Thank you!

Year 6 have been raising money to pay for their end of year celebration trip, and on Friday afternoon they got in the saddle and dusted off their running shoes to take part in a Run/Bike-a-thon on the school field.
The children had to complete as many laps of the 400m track around the edge of the field as possible in their allotted time. Children ran or cycled in 15 minute blocks, giving them time to rest and take on fluids - whilst they counted their partner's laps.
A huge well done to everyone. We are still collating the numbers of laps completed but it looks like quite a lot!
Now it's time to collect that sponsor money, bring it in to your class teacher as soon as you have collected from all your sponsors. Well done Y6!!
