• Pupil Voice Groups

  Fri 18 Sep 2026

  We value the thoughts and opinions of all our children at Millfield and therefore have a wide range of Pupil Voice Groups within our school. The children who represent their peers in these groups ensure that the views of the children have a clear forum; this helps to shape the direction of the school. Most groups meet at least once a week. The children for these groups are selected in a variety of ways; sometimes they are voted for by their peers, while other times they are selected by their teachers.

   

  School Council elections will be held on Thursday 24^th September, please see the email sent to Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 parents/carers. Following the elections, we will begin organising our other Pupil Voice Groups, including:

  Assembly Committee

  Reading Rockets

  Eco-Action

  Peer Mentors

  Sport Stars

  Online Safety

   

  We look forward to seeing children getting involved and having their voices heard!

  

• Lego Donations Needed!

  Fri 18 Sep 2026

  Message from Mrs Lewis:

  If you have any unused LEGO® at home that you would be happy to donate, it would be greatly appreciated for our Lego Club.

   

  Due to the nature of the resources we already have, we kindly ask that any donations are LEGO® pieces only. To ensure the resources are safe and enjoyable for the children to use, please also ensure that any donated LEGO® is clean and in good condition.

   

  Please pass any donations to your child's class teacher, who will ensure they are passed on to the club.

   

  Thank you for your support and generosity! 🧱😊
