We are also looking for parent/family volunteers to join us on:

❄️ Weather Update – Snow Warning

Dear Parents and Carers,

With snowy weather expected, please ensure your child comes to school wearing suitable footwear, such as snow-appropriate shoes or boots. If possible, please provide an additional pair for indoor use.

Hats and gloves are essential for keeping warm—please make sure all items are clearly named.

We will continue to spend time outdoors, as usual, to enjoy the winter weather, so it is important that children arrive well prepared for the conditions.

Thank you for your support.


🌟 Celebrating Seaburn Dene!

We were thrilled to welcome School Readers into our school for a photo and video shoot recently, and they had some amazing things to say about our children and school community!

Izzy, their Marketing & Communications Manager, said:
"From the moment we arrived we could tell we were in a really warm and special school… the six children we met were wonderfully enthusiastic and sweet, and such well-behaved models – a real credit to the school! A huge thank you to the volunteers for their help with amazing video soundbites which will really help bring the story to life."

We are so proud of our pupils and our fantastic volunteers – this is a brilliant reflection of the positivity, enthusiasm, and community spirit at Seaburn Dene! 💛
