Jamie Knight Freestyle Footballer
On 13th September Willington Primary School welcomed Jamie Knight a freestyle footballer to the school to promote National Fitness Day! Jamie showcased his incredible skills in assembly before running workshops with all classes where he taught the children some of his favourite tricks. Staff and children were all amazed by his skills and thoroughly enjoyed the day. We would like to say thank you to Jamie for this great experience.
Time Detectives and a Travelling Turtle
Our Year 5 class have been taking part in Northern Heartlands’ Hidden Heritage of Willington Project ‘Time Detectives’. It has provided opportunities for our pupils to jump feet first into our local history with the aim that children will feel more connected to their locality.
On Saturday 15th July EEA are bringing their famous giant mechanical turtle to Willington to lead the parade for Hyem Fest!
It will take you on a parade through time, where you will experience Willington’s past present and future led by their friendly time travelling giant.
The parade begins at 2pm from Park Street and will be finishing from Willington Town Green where the the opening festival will begin, followed by live music and entertainment, creative activities and more.
On the build up to the parade there will be a host of free family workshops for everyone to participate in led, by Anna Harding commencing on:
When: July 8th from 10:00 -1:00pm and 2:00pm – 5:00pm
Where: Willington Town Council Offices, 67 High Street, DL15 0PF.

School Games Gold Award
We are pleased to announce that we have been awarded the School Games Mark gold award 2022/23.
The School Games Mark is a government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community.
The gold award is for those schools that have challenged themselves and demonstrated their progress over time against a national benchmark.
We are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible.
We are delighted we have been recognised for our success. Well done to all!
