Welcome back to this very busy half term leading up to the school summer holidays in July.
This is a very important half term as we prepare pupils for the next stage of their education.
Please find below a list of events taking place in school this half term.
An important date to note is Wednesday 3rd September which is the date the majority of pupils return to school after the summer break.
This is a change from the original date in order to take an additional trust planning / INSET day. Please note there will be separate different starting arrangements for our new children joining us in EYFS.

All parents / carers are invited to come and join us this Wednesday morning (4th June) at 9.15am in the school hall for an information presentation about our school behaviour policy.
This presentation will be led by Mr Wiggett (Deputy Head Teacher / Year 6 teacher).
In January 2025 following consultation between staff, and with our pupils, we introduced a revised behaviour policy to improve behaviour further at our school.
At this presentation Mr Wiggett will outline our behaviour policy - the changes we have made - and the impact they have had.
If you are able to come and join us please wait by the red doors by the hall on Wednesday morning. Once children are settled in their classrooms and the hall has been set up we will open these doors for parents / carers to enter.
If you have any questions or queries about this presentation or about our behaviour policy please feel free to contact Mr Wiggett by email: r.wiggett@millfield.staffs.sch.uk
We hope you are all enjoying the half term break.
A reminder that pupils return to school on Tuesday 3rd June as Monday 2nd June is a staff INSET day.
We know that some parents / carers are having issues with receiving notifications via our web site and we are working on this - if you know of anyone who is having these problems we would be really grateful if you could share this information about pupils return to school on Tuesday 3rd June with them.
Many thanks.
Welcome to Millfield Primary School part of the Community Academies Trust.
As head teacher of Millfield I am extremely proud of the role and responsibility I have of leading and managing the school and making it the very best that it can be.
These are exciting times for Millfield Primary as we continue to move forward and ensure that all of our pupils make the best possible progress and achieve at the highest possible level.
We work hard to ensure all our pupils experience an exciting, engaging curriculum at our school that provides them with the knowledge and skills needed for the next stage of their education and their future lives.
Reading is at the heart of our curriculum. It is the most important skill that we must teach our pupils to ensure that they become fluent readers as quickly as possible.
We want every pupil at this school to be a confident, fluent reader who not only reads to learn but also reads for pleasure.
I am, along with all staff and all governors, committed to making our school a centre of excellence. We are all dedicated to accepting nothing but the best for our school and doing everything in our power to help every single pupil achieve their very best.
If your require any further information about the school or wish to make an appointment to visit us please do not hesitate to contact the school office.
Mr S Kelly - Head Teacher
