Headteacher's Welcome
Welcome to Weddington Primary School’s website. We are delighted that you have chosen to visit and learn more about our school community. At Weddington, we strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where every child can thrive and reach their full potential.
Weddington’s vision is for all to thrive.
‘Weddy’ graduates will venture into the wider world as
curious, courageous and confident individuals,
who are equipped with the tools for continued success.
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and to anyone else who helped with organising yesterday. It was great to meet you and your cheerful presence and valuable help throughout the day was really appreciated. The children really seemed to enjoy it and your pupils were a real credit to themselves, their families and your school.
Dear Mr Patel,
I would like to highlight to you some outstanding work undertaken by Miss Daffern.
I have been involved with the school for many years and along with others have often been frustrated with the lack of participation in extra curriculum representative sport, especially when you see some of the exceptional talent of some Weddington pupils.
I share your strong belief that school is for the academic learning, but sports have an important place in young people’s development. They are often the only positive outlet for some and for others they can offer some well needed mental health benefits.
Yesterday saw 11 boys from year 5 represent the school in Milby Football Tournament. 16 schools from the District were present.
I can say without fear of contradiction that they did you and the school proud. They were without doubt the smartest, well-disciplined and respectful team present. They have a couple of very talented players, but they played so well as a team. They were passing and praising each other, with rolling substitutions and a real team ethos.
Between games they were supporting Club Team mates from other schools and sitting in a smart line offering positive feedback.
I am not aware of the funding stream supporting Vision, the match kit and coaching, but I would like to echo the other parents and careers on the sideline with a massive thank you (Their kit was the best!).
The team made it to the final and lost on penalties, I hope that this is not an omen for the World Cup this months, but their dignity and resolve was a true testament to the team and rarely seen at this age.
Can I please reiterate that none of this would have been possible without the time, effort and commitment of Miss Daffern. Dedicating a true investment in the children, in her own time and without impact on their studies. She showed a real passion that you should be immensely proud of.
Good evening,
I'm sorry that I didn't get a chance to see you before I left, so I just wanted to send an email to say thank you very much for having me this week for work experience.
I am very thankful for the opportunity you gave me, and I really appreciate the experience I gained working in reception with you. It was a valuable and enjoyable experience, and I learned a lot during my time there.
Thank you again for your kindness and support throughout the week.
Many thanks,
A

Thank you for sharing these lovely photos. As a Chinese parent, it really means a lot to see our culture being recognised and celebrated in school. Thank you for creating such a wonderful experience for them.
Hi
I just wanted to email in and pass on my praise regarding an after school club my son attended last term.
He attended the reception year parachute club with Mr Hughes and thoroughly enjoyed every session to the point it became the highlight of his week. It sounded like each session was well thought out and the sessions were fun and engaging. When it ended Max was very disappointed and said he wanted to go every week.
Please pass on my praise to him 😊
Kind Regards
It is always his pleasure to take the children. They are so polite, always say good morning and always say thank you. They are ALWAYS well-behaved – their behaviour is a credit to the school, and they are by far the best class that I have ever taken to swimming classes.
"Please take this email as a token of my thanks to you and your staff for their proactive and caring attitude."
"My daughters joined Weddington primary school 18 months ago and I have nothing but praise for the school and teachers! They both love school and it’s due to the constant commitment that the staff there show to all the children that are helping them thrive!"
"Just wanted to take the time to commend the group on their behaviour during the session, they were all very calm, had beautiful manners, excellent attitudes towards learning and problem solving, and were an absolute pleasure to teach!"
