On Thursday 8th May 2025, we will be commemorating Victory in Europe (VE) Day with a special day of celebration and reflective learning. To symbolise peace and unity, we would like children to come to school dressed in white. We hope that this simple, visual gesture will help set the tone for the day and mark the occasion in a respectful and inclusive way. The kitchen has put together a special lunch menu that is inspired by dishes from 1945 (please find menus attached). We also have outlined our plans for the day which can be found below. 

At Ainslie Wood Primary School, we love to embrace the many different cultures and backgrounds of our children. This is why we are excited to announce that we are having a Global Discovery Day on Tuesday 1st April. We have planned a variety of activities for our children to take part in which encourage curiosity and creativity while the children explore different aspects of geography. Please see the letter attached below for further information about the traditional clothing the children can wear on this day. 

We will be celebrating Comic Relief on Friday 21st March 2025 with a fabulous Back to the 80s theme! We invite all children to come to school wearing their best 1980s outfits. They can wear anything inspired by the 80s, such as leg-warmers, neon colours, big hair and denim jackets! We would be very grateful if you are able to donate £1. All donations raised will go towards Comic Relief to help those in need across the UK and beyond. All children will be encouraged to take part in activities throughout the day, making it as enjoyable as possible. We look forward to seeing everyone in their outfits!

After school on Thursday 6th March we will be having a book, cake & pre-loved uniform sale to celebrate World Book Day. 

Please come along and grab yourself a bargain whilst supporting our AWP to raise funds for our new school playground. 

On Friday 15th November the theme for Children in Need is 'Make Life Lighter' so at Ainslie Wood we are getting involved by coming to school in our comfiest clothes (no PJ's please).  If you are able to, please bring a small donation of £1. Thank you
