Year 6 Netball
This week, St Oswald's competed in our first netball event of the year. The Y6 team played with enthusiasm and brilliant skill. All the team are looking forward to two more events in the upcoming weeks.
Year 3 trip to Yorkshire Sculpture Park
Year three had a fantastic day at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Both classes took part in an explore, walk, talk, and make workshop where we learnt about different artists and got the opportunity to sketch and make our own clay sculptures. We also had a great time walking around the park and seeing lots of incredible sculptures. The trip has really brought to life our previous art topic and inspired lots of children to make their own sculptures at home. It was a fantastic day, the children were enthusiastic, polite and were a credit to the school.

Please can as many people vote for one of our bonnets so we can win some vouchers for school. Thank you for your support!
Year 1 Explorers Day
Year 1 went on an adventure! They have been learning about different explorers through history and have written their own adventure story.
To end our topic, we dressed up as an explorer and took part in different challenges around school. They have made binoculars, a map, took part in a treasure hunt and tested our their exploring skills in forest school. They have had a brilliant time bringing together all that they have learned throughout our history topic!
Thank you to the parents for you support in helping to make Tuesday a success.
Comic Relief
Today we raised £1401 for comic relief! The children did a marvellous job soaking the teachers with sponges and the teachers were very good sports about it. Well done to everybody involved!
Open the Book
On Thursday year three went to church to learn more about the Easter Story. Volunteers from Open the Book read to them and brought to life the different parts of the Easter Story. The children were really engaged and the volunteers commented on their lovely manners and behaviour.
School Council visit
A wonderful opportunity for pupils of our school to learn and engage in activities regarding what Leeds are doing around the climate and environment.
They met the Leeds children’s mayor, sat in the council chambers and asked lots of important questions.
A fun and interesting day was had!
British Science Week 2025
This week, we have been celebrating British Science Week in school. We took part in the Primary Science Teaching Trust's Inspirational Science Day on Monday. Nursery and Reception children investigated how shadows are made, Y1 and Y2 explored how to make materials waterproof, Y3 and Y4 investigated how the type of surface affects how far an object rolls and Y5 and Y6 created a 'marble maze' with the challenge to make it as long as possible!
Year 4 Herd Farm Trip
On Wednesday Year 4 enjoyed an exciting trip to Herd Farm. The children took part in different activities including Archery, Climbing and Bushcraft. They also had a Moonwalk challenge, where they had to make their way around an obstacle course using only four crates! A firm favourite was the inflatables. Two children were attached to a bungee rope and had to race to attach sticky pads to the opposite end! We were very lucky to have a lovely sunny day and lots of fun was had by all.
