Family wellbeing

I would just like to share with all you wonderful parents/guardians how your amazing support with our Family Learning Sessions has allowed me to become an Ambassador for Cherry Fold Family Learning Sessions. I work in partnership with Lancashire Adult Learning and talk at conferences about how enjoyable all our sessions are and how much they are supported by you. Please do not hesitate to pop in and see me in school.  THANKYOU to you all. Miss Heys.

As part of my role I am able to refer families for food vouchers and sometimes gas & electric credits. I have many links with Burnley Together for food parcels and also the Community Grocery Shop. I can offer mental health support, and any kind of referrals you feel may be beneficial for your child/children.

However, there are criteria that must be met, if you feel any of this would be beneficial to you and your family, and would like to  discuss anything confidentially, please email parents@cherryfold.lancs.sch.uk 

111 NHS service will now offer mental health support to people in crisis. If you are in crisis yourself or worried about a loved one you can call 111 and select the mental health option to speak to a trained professional. The link below will give you all the advice you need.

On Thursday the 10th October 2024 we took part in World Mental Health Day by having a non-uniform day and wearing something yellow. 

We raised £180.35 for the Hello Yellow Young Minds Charity.

We had many donations for our Harvest Festival this led by Reverend Kat, the food donations were given to:

Burnley Together Foodbank and Calico Vulnerable Adult Support.

Cherry Fold Community Primary School took part in collecting Christmas Presents and Food to pass out to families in the community. The picture below shows staff from the Community Grocery Shop collecting the items.

At Cherry Fold we try to help our families as much as we can. We are lucky to sometimes receive extra bread which can be given to our families 

Our Macmillan Coffee Morning was held on Friday 27th September 2024. It was a fantastic event and a huge success. It was amazing to see so many parents, carers, family members and children.

We raised £341.30 for cancer
