Our Community
We love getting involved with our local community. We take part in a range of community projects, invite the community to visit us in school (or church) and showcase our brilliant school.
Recently, we have loved getting involved with a campaign called 'Cards Fighting Loneliness' and have been crafting and decorating Christmas and New Year cards for people around Lancashire who might feel lonely around this time of year. We feel very lucky to have been a part of the campaign.
"Everyone deserves to feel happy at Christmas," - Matilda
We have also been busy spreading Christmas joy with our beautiful singing! Our school choir performed at Garstang's Victorian Festival this year and we have also performed a carol concert in the Methodist Church for local residents.
Our children love being given the opportunity to raise money! We have been extremely successful in raising money for our school, charities and the wider community.
We love having visitors at Scorton and are very lucky that our children meet a range of people from within our village, the wider community and across England to learn about their culture, religion, hobbies, lifestyles and knowledge!
"I liked the Islam workshop because I could ask questions about things that I was unsure of,"
"The skateboarding workshop was so fun! When I first started I thought I wouldn't be able to do it but by the end of it I went on the ramp!"
"We got to ask Cat Smith questions about being an MP and then wrote her letters about the things that really matter to us and our school,"
The Scorton Rose Queen Festival takes place in May and is one of the most anticipated events in our village. Visiting Queens and their retinues join our Rose Queen to process through the village, accompanied by Pilling Brass Band, congregating at school where our Rose Queen is crowned. Our whole church school community work together to make this event so special.
Following the crowning, there are refreshments and stalls and games to visit, run by our Scorton School Association, and everyone comes together to celebrate this special occasion. Our Rose Queen and her retinue are invited to take part in similar celebrations in Garstang, Dolphinholme, Churchtown, Forton and a number of other villages.
