SCHOOL NEWS
Dads That Dig Event
Updated 15th October
On Thursday 10th October 2024 we hosted a Dads that Dig event for Dads, Grandads and Male Carers of the children at Villa Real School. The aim of the morning was to develop a new accessible pathway across our Forest School area which will open up the space to everyone in the long-term. A massive thank you must go out to everyone who attended or connected to the morning and the path is now ready to be installed in the next phase of this project. Our project is supported by Craig Williams from Durham County Council from his role as the Dads and Male Carers Coordinator across the county with a view of becoming one of the first schools in the county to achieve the new 'Dads Welcome Here' Kitemark by the end of the school year.
MP Visits Villa Real School
Posted 30th September
Today Liz Twist, MP for Blaydon and Consett came to look round the school. She was keen to see how we support children, and what further support we needed. It was lovely to show her all the work being done in classes, whilst also explaining how we could do even more with more space and facilities. We are seeking support from all regarding our current DFE bid for a new building.

Families that have supplied school with medication should have received (at least one) email from [email protected] to authorise.
Please check your spam / junk folders for the email, click the link and follow the directions.
Please let us know if you have received the email and can't connect to authorise, as we have the Medical Tracker tech team calling us back as we have logged an issue for a few parents that have contacted us.
