Irchetser CO-OP Presents FICPS With a Cheque
This afternoon Mrs Alison, Kelly from FICPS and some of our children visited Irchester CO-OP to receive a cheque for over £2000!
Thank you to everyone with a co-op card who has chosen FICPS as their charity to donate to.
How it works
Every time members shop at the Co-op, 1% of what they spend on selected own-brand products and services goes to the Co-op Local Community Fund. The more members that select 'Friends Of Irchester Primary School' as their chosen local cause will result in the more funds that we will receive.
What can you do?
If you have a Co-op member’s card please go online www.coop.co.uk/membership where you can select us as your cause. Then every time you shop at the coop present your membership card and we will receive some of the benefits.
If you are not a member of the Coop membership scheme please register with the coop for a card. I only costs £1 to do so and you will earn 5% of the value of selected goods and services that you buy, back into your membership account to receive as money off vouchers. You can register on the above website or call into the co-op for a temporary card to register.
If you have any membership queries the co-op membership services can be contacted on the following email address:
We are extremely grateful to the Co-op for giving us this opportunity and urge you to all support us in order to maximise the donations we will receive
Irchester Community School awarded Primary Science Quality Mark Outreach
The Primary Science Quality Mark (PSQM) is the only national award scheme to develop and celebrate the quality of science teaching and learning in primary schools. Awards are achieved by demonstrating commitment and expertise in science teaching and leadership through a year-long process of initial audit, followed by action and reflection.
In our submission feedback, the reviewer commented:
"I am so impressed with the way that science has clearly been developing for several years and that you never rest on your laurels but continue to challenge yourselves and your pupils. It has been a pleasure and privilege to read and admire all you have achieved this year. Your ability to identify an issue and look deeper into the causes before you decide on the way forward is one particular skill which I very much admire."
As stated above, we never rest on our laurels, Mrs Dawson and Miss Draper are busy setting up for our 'Non-fiction Fortnight' and planning our British Science Week celebrations, amongst other things. And Mrs Tyrrell is currently working on a 'Science Capital' research project with King's College London and Year 2.
