The Sponsored Bounce countdown is on! We are super busy behind the scenes planning everything, but wanted in the meantime to share a little bit more information.

Parents are invited from 2pm to watch the event, on the school field. Please feel free to bring blankets or chairs for extra comfort. Early Years are planned to start from 2pm, and the bounce is planned to start for Years 1-4 from 2:15pm.


Our bake sale will be available from 2pm for you to also indulge in a sweet treat, we are asking cash donations only & if anyone is able to support the donations of bakes, whether homemade or shop bought we would be super grateful. Donations can be brought into the office on the morning of the 22nd.


2 x NUFC football shirts will be raffled off for £2 a strip. Money can be sent into school in a sealed envelope on the 22nd with "child's name - raffle" written on, or alternatively we will be selling tickets from 2pm on the yard (cash only please).


The children will participate in a bounce themed obstacle course with 5 bounce themed stations to complete. Children can choose whether to use a space hopper, or just their own jumping ability to move between stations. We have included a map of how the course is planned to look.

We are asking for the children to get sponsorship to complete the course. Paper forms have been sent home in red bags for cash donations, but now we also have a just giving page available for electronic donations too! Our campaign can be accessed through this link: www.justgiving.com/campaign/mickley-first-school-sponsored-bounce?utm_medium=CA&utm_source=CL

We are grateful for your continued support & any donations no matter how big or small will help our cause to replace our chromebooks for in class use.


We also are looking for volunteers to support us on the day, to man the stations & help the set up. If you would be available and willing to support then please sign up on the attached form: volunteersignup.org/3P4BR

Thank you & we look forward to seeing you all on the 22nd.

Happy Bouncing!

"Every child deserves to feel safe and supported at school, regardless of their medical needs", Dr Zubir Ahmed, Health Innovation and Safety Minister.

At Mickley we support several pupils with mild to severe allergies. We train regularly to ensure we know what to do to keep our pupils safe, and in the event of an emergency, act quickly and correctly. We have clear signage displayed around school detailing staff first aid qualification levels and where to locate the emergency anaphylaxis kit. Our spare adrenaline auto-injectors (AAIs) and inhalers are looked after by designated staff to ensure they are always in date and ready for use, and our Parents/Carers are asked to provide us with full medical information for their child(ren) so we can work together to stay safe and informed.

As we always say at Mickley, we are supported by a fantastic community and love utilising local businesses wherever we can. A big thank you to Prudhoe Pharmacy , this was the first time we have used them to order our spare AAI pens and they were fab, lovely having them delivered to school too. ... See MoreSee Less
