Playtime at St John’s became even more enjoyable today as the field has dried up under the spring sunshine! It was a pleasure to see all the children playing in the fields and enjoying the sensory garden which Mrs Lister has been busy tending to.

Fence Painting “thank you!”
A huge thank you to our fabulous team of painters who did a great job on Saturday refreshing the school fences. Several of our school families and friends came along to pick up a paintbrush and also enjoy a BBQ and cake along the way. The school grounds look fantastic – a big thank you from all of us.
Ofsted Report: Good with Outstanding features including Outstanding Early Years provision!
We are delighted to share the report following our recent Ofsted inspection (5/6th March). I would like to take the opportunity to thank all of you for your help, support and dedication to enable this report to be such a super reflection of the work in our school.
I am sure you will also join me in saying a massive well done to both pupils and staff for the hard work over the past years to achieve this outcome.
As you can see, we now have a number of aspects judged outstanding – this is testament to the developments and changes which have been put in place over a number of years and again, I would like to say a big thank you to all who have shared their suggestions and worked with us to make this develop so positively for the children in our school.
Best wishes,
Julie Ball

Concert for Bishop Michael
A huge well done to our choir and the musicians who participated in a concert for Bishop Michael on Friday evening at Adcote School. Following weeks of rehearsals, the children sang and played for the Bishop along with other local schools. Mrs Ball and Mrs Hindson were very proud of you all!
Red Nose Day 2019
Thank you for all the donations for Comic Relief on Friday; the school looked brilliant as a sea of red and over £105 was raised! The children were very proud to be sporting painted noses instead of plastic ones; Eco Team (school Council) thanked everyone for supporting this campaign and sharing an important message.
Bishop Michael of Lichfield visits Ruyton
On Friday (15th March) we were honoured to welcome Bishop Michael from Lichfield Cathedral to our school. He delivered our morning Worship and spent the morning in school, meeting the children and enjoying their work.
Daniel explained, “I felt really lucky that he came to our school. His Worship story about his Bishop’s crook was so interesting!”
The Worship Council gave their thanks to Bishop Michael for taking time to visit our school and answer children’s questions.
Our heroes
Today in Owl Class, we have been discussing who our heroes are and how they inspire us. It was fantastic to hear the range of people (and one country) and the wonderful reasons as to why they are inspirational. It was a lovely link to our school values too. Here are a few examples:
