Today is always a day of mixed emotions at Pennine Way. There’s a gentle sadness as we wave goodbye to children and staff moving on, and for some families, it truly is the end of an era—with all their children having now completed their journey with us. But more than anything, today is filled with pride and happiness. Watching our Year 6 pupils grow into such confident, kind, and capable young people has been a privilege. They’ve made us laugh, challenged us, and inspired us every single day. To our families: thank you. Your support, encouragement, and trust have meant the world to us. You’ve been part of our community, and we’re so grateful for the partnership we’ve shared. As our Year 6s step into their next chapter, we’ll be cheering them on from afar. We can’t wait to hear about the incredible things they’ll achieve in their new schools and beyond. Please keep in touch—you’ll always be part of the Pennine Way family.

What a lovely way to round off the term! A heartfelt congratulations to all our Star Award winners—you’ve truly earned it. The class teachers had such a tough time choosing, as so many of the children have been giving their best and shining in their own ways. We’re so proud of every single one of them. Thank you, as always, for your continued support—it really does make all the difference. Wishing you all a restful and joyful break when it comes! Just one more day and it will be time to say goodbye to our marvellous year 6's.
