Bristol Standard Award

Added on by School Administrator.

Huge congratulations to Mrs Alway and her team for gaining the Bristol Standard for another year.  The assessors were particularly impressed with our use of "See-saw" and how it was supporting the interaction between home and school creating positive partnerships between families and school.  They also liked how we had developed our outside space and enjoyed seeing it being used by the children.

 Well done Mrs Alway and the team -  we are hugely proud of your achievements.

Neston Rugby Team Triumph at Tournament!

Added on by Maple.

A huge congratulations to the Neston Rugby Team (Tom, Sam, Ned, Emily, Maddy, Oscar, George, Lauren and Ellie) who have won the Level 2 cluster tournament! Sadly, because the event was postponed from March, we've missed the opportunity to compete in the Level 3 competition. Also, well done to Seth, Ed, Lenny and Daniel who came along to gain competition experience for next year's event by playing for Lypiatt School, who didn't have enough pupils to field a full team.

Thank you to all parent supporters and to Mark Dellar for this great photo!

New team names inaugurated at 2018 School Games Day!

Added on by Maple.

Well done to all of the Neston School community - children, staff and parents - for another wonderful School Games Day. Despite the damp weather, the Key Stage 1 children started the event off in style with lots of joy and excitement. The rain held off for Key Stage 2 and again, the level of effort and participation was high. Almost everyone remembered to use our new team names: Ursa (green), Delphinus (blue), Aquila (yellow) and Phoenix (red). A very big thank you to Mr John Andrews, our PE governor for spending the whole day to score for us. Also thank you to Mr Mortimer for coming to support and keeping Mr Andrews company for awhile! Thank you also to all the parents who came along to support and those who helped with giving out places and to Bailey's mum for lending Ebony and Evie her megaphone. Thank you to FONS for providing us all with much needed refreshments! Finally, a HUGE thank you to all of the Y6 members of the School Games Crew who were fully involved in the organising and running the whole day!!!
