We are all so proud (but not surprised!) of Miss Whit being named as a ‘Lockdown Hero’ by The Pearson National Teaching Awards. She goes above and beyond for the school and every day it’s clear to see that children have her heart. Congratulations Miss Whit – you’re an absolute star and we’re all very lucky to work alongside you everyday!
Today we said the first of our ‘big goodbyes’ this week as we finally wished a very happy retirement to our long serving music teacher, Mrs Hindson.
Mrs Hindson has worked at St John’s for an incredible 24 years! She had her first day of music teaching at our school back in 1997 and it is an honour that she spent her last one here too.
We held a farewell performance in our school fields this afternoon; it was wonderful to hear all the children sing together again after such a long time.
From all of us at St John’s, a huge thank you a good luck to Mrs HIndson; you will be very missed but have left a musical legacy at Ruyton that we will endeavour to continue. Mr Butler – no pressure!
Well done Sam for excelling in his recent Taekwondo grading. He was awarded his blue belt with a white stripe and promoted to 4th Gup. Congratulations Sam!

Thank you to Reverend Burns, the Worship Council and the children for their contributions.
We look forward to seeing you all at our ‘normal’ service next year in the Church, along with the annual picnic lunch! Thank you for your continued support.
Congratulations to Anouk for earning her gymnastic medals. These two are for participating and we have our fingers crossed for your final results Anouk! Keep us posted!
And congratulations to Rhys for competing in the 5k at the Running Festival in Brynkinalt and coming 3rd. He beat adults and children older than him to achieve this fantastic result.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped us raise a whopping £788 for our Fun Run which was held earlier this term. We can’t believe how much we raised!

We were delighted to be able to hold our annual Sports Day today at Ruyton, even though it wasn’t our ‘usual’ occasion we still made the best of the current restrictions and held this annual favourite in our class bubbles. Tedsmore Green were the overall House winners on the day! Well done to you all.
We are thrilled to be able to share some of the races and our day via the video link below – please enjoy.
A huge well done and thank you to our fantastic children for such brilliant displays of sport – there was lots of laughter, some big smiles and plenty of determined faces! A fantastic morning all round. Thank you to the families of our school for your continued support.
