Stronger together . . . every child in a great school Welcome to Westcountry Schools Trust (WeST); a tight-knit family of schools based around natural geographical proximity in the South West. Initially formed as a small multi academy trust of only two schools in 2011, the Trust has experienced several iterations of growth and change. In essence, WeST as we recognise it today, was launched in September 2017 with the ambit...
From looking after poorly dolls, working together to make the longest chain, games of hide and seek, cooking up a storm in the kitchen to carefully constructed junk models, the children of Stoke Class embrace every area of learning.
It would be a pleasure to welcome you and your child to our friendly and inclusive school, where we put children at the heart of everything we do.
Please see the poster for dates and how to book.
Extensive new outdoor sports facilities have opened at Sherford and they will be managed by Argyle Community Trust, the official charity of Plymouth Argyle. The exciting new partnership will provide community access to Sherford Sports Hub, which has an all-weather sand-dressed astro turf pitch, full-size grass pitch, and tennis courts.
From Wednesday 2nd October onwards, both Sherford residents and the wider local community will have access to the new public pitches and high-class facilities – and will be able to hire pitches and book onto courses through a new online booking system. Located on Hercules Road, the amenities are easy to get to and include a car park, public toilets including an accessible toilet, and an on-site office for Argyle Community Trust.
The new outdoor sports facilities will be open to all and there is plenty planned with a community launch later this month.
All of the information is on the Sherford website: https://sherford.uk/2024/10/01/sherford-and-argyle-team-up-to-open-pitches/
The website for booking the facilities is here: https://argylecommunitytrust.co.uk/facilities/sherford-sports-hub/
Date for your diary: there is a week of community launch events planned, including a Community Launch Day on Monday 28th October, 10am-2pm, followed by half-term activities. Argyle Community Trust will no doubt be keen for volunteers on the day, or you can just pop along to see what the new facilities are like - either way, you'd be most welcome.
Community Launch Week will take place throughout half-term from Monday 28th October to Friday 1st November, with a whole host of free or discounted activities taking place.
Residents and visitors are invited to celebrate the new partnership. A free event with no booking required, the day will provide an opportunity to experience the new facilities first-hand and offer a range of fun activities for families, including:
Half-term Launch Week: Tuesday 29th October – Friday 1st November
Argyle Community Trust will run a variety of activities and taster sessions. Open to all, visitors are invited to have a go at tennis, kick a ball around on the astro pitch, and enjoy the new facilities. Equipment will be available to use – or participants can bring their own. The full list of events, free activities and discounted sessions will be listed on the website.
Argyle Community Trust will run various sports sessions, holiday clubs, and community outreach activities at Sherford from the new facilities. This will include an opportunity to play tennis for free at least once a week with support from qualified tennis coaches, free equipment hire, and a loyalty scheme. Information on the programme, prices and booking details will be available on the dedicated Sherford Sports Hub page.
