This week’s winners! 

The Daily Mile track is nearing completion. We should be up and running (literally) by tomorrow!

Things were hotting up on the school playground this morning - don't worry, all children watched from a safe distance as our 'Daily Mile' track was laid. The track snakes around the lower yard and ten circuits equate to one mile and will encourage our children to keep fit and healthy.

It was hard for everyone (children AND staff) to get out out of bed early this morning but we've got off to a really good start following the Christmas Break. I hope the new year has started well for you and I look forward to your continued support this term.

I ended the year in style by dining with last week's Star Award winners. Good company and good manners. Well done!

We would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas, restful holiday and peaceful New Year.

Thank you for your continued support this year.

Best wishes from all the staff at St Stephen’s. 

Never mind the High Street lights and John Lewis adverts - this morning's beautiful Nativity Assembly from Reception Class signalled the real start of Christmas.The children looked good and sounded even better - well done to all the children (and staff) - your hard work was definitely worth…

No - it's not a typo. Members of the school choir really DID bring joy to the wards of Bolton Hospital this morning. They visited several wards, sang for staff and patients and helped Santa's Elves to distribute Christmas gifts. The children were brilliant - a real credit to the school. Well done…

This morning all children on the Walking Bus were safely delivered to school by THREE Santa's.

It's not quite the 'Feeding of the Five Thousand' but I bet it feels that way to the wonderful ladies in the kitchen! As always. a great meal and two hundred and fifty satisfied customers.

A huge thank you as always to the staff (especially those in the kitchen) for a massively successful and enjoyable Christmas dinner! 

...then THREE of them come at the same time! I won't reveal who is behind the beards but they have been doing a fantastic job on the walking bus this year - so look out for them tomorrow morning.
