Ashcombe Primary School

Welcome to Ashcombe Primary School

We hope our website will:

Provide lots of up-to-date information for our current families.
Give prospective new parents a small insight into our school community.

Our current families should remember to:

Catch up on all of our newsletters here.
Check the year group pages for an up to date look at what your child is currently learning.

At Ashcombe we like to think of ourselves as a very big family and the quality of any school depends upon the relationships within it.

We hope our association with your family will be a long and happy one for the benefit of your children.

If you have any concerns about any aspect of school life or about your child away from school, please come and talk to a staff member about your concerns.

We will always endeavor to keep the website as up-to-date and current as possible. If you have any suggestions for improving it, please let us know by clicking here.

Happy surfing!

Latest News and Upcoming Events

Ashcombe's Got Talent 2018

This annual event returns by popular demand after half term. Children who wish to enter have been asked to think about what talent they'd like to showcase and perform ready for our in-class finals across week beginning Monday 4th June.

The children and staff will then select three year group finalists to go though to the main event being held on Thursday 14th June at 9am with performances for Years 1, 3 and 5, then again at 10am for Years 2, 4 and 6 children. We will let parents of finalists know in case you'd like to come and join the second performance at 10am in the Alexander Hall.

In the meantime parents may wish to talk to children who want to prepare a talent for showcasing, possibly helping with props or any costumes if they wish (though this is certainly not compulsory!). It would be helpful if children could be sent in with these if needed across the first week back and again if selected to go through to the finals.

A Royal Welcome

Some Year 5 & 6 children were lucky enough to be invited to greet the Princess Royal on her recent visit to Weston College.

Watoto Choir

We were extremely lucky to have a special performance from the Watoto Choir this morning. They got everyone up on their feet dancing and singing along - even the staff! Thank you Watoto - you were amazing!

Thanks Co-Op!

Six pupils accompanied the school Bursar Mrs Brand to the new Cooperative store on Milton Road today to officially open the new store.

The children were shown around the store by its Manager Zac and other Cooperative staff.

The Cooperative Manager can be seen presenting Mrs Brand with a cheque for £250 as a thank you to the school for helping them to celebrate the opening.

Are you eligible for free school meals?

All children in Reception, YR1 and YR2 are entitled to receive the universal infant free school meal, however schools can get extra funding if parents are in receipt of certain benefits, therefore please still try the checker below.

By completing an assessment below you can quickly check whether your child is eligible for free school meals. It takes only a few minutes and you'll get an answer straight away.

If you are eligible you need to print or save the eligibility letter to take to your school.

Please note that both parents may need to check eligibility separately. If you have more than one child checks will need to be made for each individually.

Entitlement runs for one term. You will need to apply every school holiday.

Ofsted Parent View

Parent view is a website created by Ofsted to collate parents & carers views of each school. The online facility means that parents can log on at any time and record their views of the school by answering 12 simple questions. These views can be amended at anytime in the future as parents/carers views change.

Parents/carers can also use the website to read the views of other parents of their child’s school or of other schools in the local area.
