As we come to the end of our 2025-26 academic year we have focused our learning around ‘After the Fall’, a book about Humpty Dumpty’s resilience after he falls off the wall, to our new year groups and classes. All children have spent time in their new classes alongside their new cohort at the same time as getting to know each other and their new teachers; whilst our Year 6 children have spent time at their new secondary schools. We also invited parents and carers into school for our ‘Terrific Transition’, which gave them a chance to view their children’s fabulous work that they’ve produce over the academic year. 

We have already held our annual EYFS Graduation Ceremony, where parents and carers of our Reception children were invited to the village hall to celebrate their Reception child’s ‘Graduation’ after completing the Early Years Foundation Stage. Next, our ‘Leavers Graduation Ceremony’ for the Year 6 children departing Everton Primary School for their allocated secondary schools will take place on Friday 24^th July 2025 – our last day of term.

During this month our children have experienced a wide range of cultural capital opportunities. All Key Stage 2 children took part in Elizabethan Sports Day which was a fabulous chance for the children to represent our school in an inter-school competition in the sunshine. Our Year 6 children will soon be going on their final residential together in Perlethorpe, and enjoying a cinema trip to watch ‘Toy Story 5’, having already enjoyed their water fight!

Unfortunately, it has come to the end of another academic year, and we must say ‘Goodbye’ to our wonderful Year 6 cohort. They will all be missed, but we are very proud of them – of the successes they have had and the progressions that they have made whilst at Everton Primary School – not only academically, but socially and emotionally too. We know that they will continue to succeed and progress in their next chapter of learning at their chosen secondary schools. They will leave as members of our ‘ForEverTeam’.

The same must also be said for Miss Spencer, our Year 3 and 4 class teacher, who is leaving us at the end of the academic year for further progress in her career. Miss Spencer has been a wonderful colleague and role model for the children, ensuring that the pupils take part in many events such as: Sing Out, Choir, Musical Theatre, The Summer Spectacular and many more. We wish Miss Spencer every success and happiness in the next steps of her journey.

I would like to finish by saying how thankful to all stakeholders of Everton Primary School who have ensured that we have had such a successful academic: children, parents, carers, governors, staff and the local community. Without you, there can be no us. I wish you all a lovely summer. 

If you, or anyone you know, needs a school place then we currently have spaces in Nursery, Reception and Year 1 that need to be filled from September 2026. If you would like to arrange a school visit or ask any questions about school admission, then please feel free to call or email school on 01777817350 or office@everton.notts.sch.uk

Best wishes,
