Welcome
Clifton with Rawcliffe Primary School is a special place. With a newly designed building created from a vision for teaching and learning that prepares children for the demands of life in the twenty-first century, the children thrive and develop knowledge and skills that they need for the rest of their learning and working lives.
This is a happy school, where staff and children learn together in a calm and creative environment that focuses on the development of the whole child.

HALF TERM COMPETITION REMINDER- DESIGN A HIGH VISIBILITY VEST!!!
SUSTRANS is a local charity that works with many schools in York to support walking and cycling to school. We are involved in a project with them with some of our leaders in school.
The attached template can be printed out or children can draw their own template. Once they have finished their design, parents need to take a photograph and email it to Mrs Brisby at rbrisby@cwr.pmat.academy who will send it to the judges at Sustrans.
The winning entry will have their design printed on to their very own High-Vis vest. Please can we ask that all entries are emailed to Mrs Brisby by 4pm on Friday 19th February 2021.
Good luck!

This is incredibly dangerous. I have attached a Winter Water Safety guide from the Royal Lifesaving Society. Please share this information with your family and friends.

In winter, children and pets are particularly at risk when tempted to play on the ice formed on open water, and adults can find themselves at risk in attempting to save them.Calendar
