We’ve only gone and done it! A huge well done to our very own Lionesses as our girls team have won the Trafford girls league today! More silverware for our trophy cabinet! Well done Team Oldfield Brow!
What a combo! The girls and the boys have made a lot of people very proud tonight. Hopefully the adrenaline has worn off and everyone can catch a good night’s sleep…

Thank you,Paul and Hazel from

for coming into school to collect the kind donations from our families, and for giving an inspiring Harvest assembly about helping others, not walking by and being the difference. Our display and packing team did a fantastic job too.
Today we say goodbye & good luck to our Y6 children. The first double in take classes, The first ever Sunrays & moonbeams who have paved the way for all subsequent classes. They have set the bar high & we all couldn't be prouder of them. Continue to be fabulous!

This week Mr Merrell told Moonbeams the story of Rama and Sita, in celebration of Diwali. The children enjoyed looking at the puppets of Rama, Sita and Ravana as it brought the story to life. HAPPY DIWALI!

Happy World Book Day from Oldfield Brow! Everyone has had a wonderful day, from dressing up to sharing a whole school book- The Tin Forest. Amongst many other activities, classes decorated their doors linked to a book. Congratulations 4CD - the winners with Oldfield Chronicles!

If your child is a football fan and likely to be staying up late on Sunday to watch the final, let them stay in bed a little longer...

In recognition of the start of Black History Month, 5RC have very maturely discussed 'Black Lives Matter' and racism. Pupils also created a shared piece of art. It showed we are all unique, but how when working together we can create something special. 5RC - you are so creative!
Here are our super finalists (Jess, Stanley, Cane, Amy & Soraya) who will appear in The Greater Manchester 500 Words Writing Competition anthology. Special congratulations to Jess who’s the overall Y6 winner and Cane Y5 who has just won the whole competition!!

A huge THANK YOU to Dave Royle and Steven King of Tesco, Altrincham! Year 6 are over-the-moon with your very kind donation for their Enterprise project this week. This is an extremely generous donation, and Tesco have really helped the children gain an understanding of retail.
Year 1 made this wreath for Remembrance Day and discussed what happened all those years ago and why we commemorate it... Some very insighful questions and comments from our little ones...

We've only gone and done it! Well done to our Year 3/4 Girls Team for winning the Altrincham Schools Football World Cup. A huge thanks to the managerial team of the hour, Miss Pritchard and Mr Evans. Brilliant news!
Our whole school has come together to create this lovely display based on our Reconnection Curriculum text: Leaf. Children from all classes have created leaves, complete with their own thought on the back. They are all individual but part of a beautiful whole. Well done all!
We are so proud of Yat-Lok in Year 3 who is our first pupil to read 100 of our recommended books following the launch of the OFB 100 Books to Enjoy scheme. Well done!

for a brilliant morning yesterday! Our girls and boys teams from Y3/4 both made the semi-finals and our girls went on to WIN the whole tournament! A fantastic experience and incredible encouragement for our younger students to engage in sport 🙌🙌
Year 4&5 had a great time today at Stockport Plaza, listening to the international best selling author Cressida Cowell talk about her new book ‘Which Way to Anywhere’
The boys football league. Well done to all of the boys who togged out and put on a strong display against some challenging teams! A win, draw and a loss was the final outcome of the evening with two Y5 children, Joe and James making their debut. MOTM performance from keeper Dean!

Giving our children a voice is important to us. Last week, our house captains met for lunch with Mr Cash and Miss Pritchard to discuss ideas to make improvements to our school.

In Reception this week we have been learning about our senses. We have been on a sensory walk and have made instruments in our creative area. We have also thought about what we want to be when we grow up.
