End Of Term School Parties
 
At the end of every school year at Intack they used to have a party for each class, now with the end of term fast approaching i noticed that we hadnt had any letters about the food we should be sending in for the usual party.
I rang school in a very curious mood this morning and i asked the secretary, she said they had no plans to have any parties this year, and i asked 'well what about the year 6's who are leaving?' she said nothing at all had been mentioned about it, at this point i wasnt happy, she said she's ask the deputy head about it and get back to me


now to me an end of term party kind of puts a closier to the school year, and a total closier to the kids who are leaving for secondary school, since this new headmistress has taken over at intack several people have taken their kids out of school because of her flippant attitude towards the kids.

its not as if the parties are costing the school any money, all the parents provide the food and drinks

are your kids having an end of term party?

My son is in yr6 and is having a leavers party but its only for yr6, its not going to be much of a party as there is only 8 kids in yr6 but the school puts on the food and they are off for a fun night out on monday with the school, but my other 2 are having parties and 1 of them is a beach party, i hope the weather holds

My daughter has had a fun filled few weeks...........since they finished there sats they have been rewarded by school for all the hard work they put into the sats.

They have put on a play for us, had a school trip, had sports day at Hyndburn sports centre, had a trip to an ICT centre and more.

They are having a Year 6 leavers assembly on Thursday, and a year 6 leavers mass on Friday. They are also having a party after the assembly on Thursday.

As most of the children started at the school in the nursery, (7 years ago now eeeekkk), then the nursery door was the first door that most of them walked through, so on Friday Year 6 will be leaving school through the nursery door as well. So that means that the first and last door they ever walked through will be the same door.

I'm going to have a lump in my throat!! Though I've had to promise my daughter that I won't cry!!

at junior school we used to have toy day where you could take yor fav toy into school and just play all day for the last day of year

at secondary school we used to have school discos which have mysteriously turned into things called proms which i find absolutely pathetic and yet another un needed peice of culture from the yanks

we also had rag day where you paid 50p to go to school in your normal clothes and this as far as i know still happens

instead of proms why not have a day trip to the job center so people can actualy say they have been to one :D

Im sorry i dont agree with that. I think most people call them proms just for short. think everyone enjoyed gettinWhen i had my valedictory (prom) it wasnt pathetic at all. And i g all nicely dressed and seeing each other all as a year for one last time. Everyone makes the effort to look great for this one time and its a great occasion. Things have moved on from your time and things always will but theres still a disco :D Proms just a shortend word that everyone seems to use. Theres many other names for it. Including valedictory and leavers ball etc. I dont think its un needed at all. Everyone looks forward to it and makes the effort especially the girls! :]

No party at our school that I am aware of.

Year 6 have performed The Wizard of Oz for parents and staff.....and very good it was too in case you are reading this, Sam. :D

There also be a leaver's assembly on Friday for year 6 and their parents.

It must be a very emotional time for all.
