Ride and Rant

Support our “Ride and Rant” for Wirral Mind!

🚴‍♀️This Time to Talk Day, Co-op Academy Woodslee, Portland and Hillside are going all out to support mental health awareness with our “Ride and Rant” spinathon!

🚴‍♂️On Saturday, 8th February, a group of staff will be cycling non-stop for 6 hours at Bidston Sports and Activity Centre to raise funds for Wirral Mind, an incredible charity supporting mental health in our local community.

🚴‍♀️The event kicks off with spin classes led by our fabulous school staff, followed by a team effort to keep the wheels turning. Together, we’ll tag-team to ensure at least one bike is spinning at all times and tally up our miles to see how far we can go.

🚴‍♂️Exercise is a fantastic way to boost mental wellbeing, and this event is all about getting people moving, talking and supporting a cause that makes a real difference.

Please donate to help us reach our goal and support Wirral Mind in their vital work. Every pound raised will help provide mental health resources and support to those who need it most.

Let’s cycle, chat, and make a difference together. Thank you for your generosity!

REWARDS

Improving attendance is everyone’s business. The barriers to accessing education are wide and complex, both within and beyond the school gates, and are often specific to individual pupils and families. At Co-op Academy Woodslee, we will do all we can to support your family and ensure our academy is safe, calm and a supportive environment for your child. Let’s celebrate everyone’s success together.

How can I improve my children’s attendance? 

 

Follow NHS advice for any mild illnesses. 

Promote good hand hygiene with your children. 

Liaise with the Early Help team who will support you as a family. 

Speak to your child’s teacher as a collaborative approach is essential


 Noticeboard

The school office now opens at 8:20am and closes at 3:45pm.

A reminder we are a nut free school!

Another fabulous opportunity to join our Woodslee family. We have a casual minibus driver job vacancy across all three primaries, would this be something you’re interested in? 

 

 

Travel

It would be great if we could find out your views of the journey to/from school, and any issues that impact on road safety and any barriers to active travel you may have. This may highlight things we weren’t aware of, that we have the ability to change, and there are sections where you can make your own suggestions to consider.
