Exciting change in our Office & Wraparound
We are thrilled to announce that our very own Miss Lucy will be stepping into the role of Academy Club Coordinator for our wraparound and holiday clubs here at Woodslee. While she will continue to be in the office until later in May, you'll soon start to see her involved in both Breakfast and After-School Clubs. This is an exciting new chapter, and we have no doubt she will excel in her new position. Please join us in congratulating Miss Lucy on this fantastic opportunity!
We are excited to announce that our very own Mrs. Stant will be stepping into the role of Administrative Assistant in the office. She will continue to teach her wonderful class alongside Miss Neil until the end of the academic year, at which point she will fully transition into her new role in September. However, you may start seeing her more in the office as she begins offering support and getting to know all of you even better. Please join us in giving her a warm welcome — we know she’ll do an outstanding job, as she already has strong relationships with both our staff and students.

World Autism Awareness Day 
You may have seen all of our balloons as you collected your child from school today; we have been raising awareness for World Autism Awareness Day. Every child was given a balloon to tie to our fence whilst thinking about what makes them unique. Having autism is not a disability, it’s an ability to see the world differently. We embrace everyone at Woodslee. Thank you Miss Ball for a lovely interactive assembly this morning
