Dear Parent/Carers, we hope you have had a lovely break and it is great to see everyone back in school. Please take care on the icy roads.

Head Teacher's Welcome

Welcome to our new school website. We are a large multicultural Junior School near the centre of Huddersfield.  At Birkby Junior School we work hard to provide a creative, enjoyable and rewarding learning experience for each child in an inclusive, secure and stimulating learning environment.

We are proud of our school community and celebrate the rich and diverse backgrounds of all our pupils.

The Staff and the Governing Body at Birkby Junior School are committed to working together to give children the academic and life skills they will need to be successful.

We care about our Parents and Carers, we welcome your involvement and we look for your support in ensuring good attendance, good behaviour and hard work from your children. We operate an open-door policy and welcome you into the school anytime you would like to talk.  Hopefully you can find all the information you need on our website but if you can’t please feel free to call into school. We will be happy to help you and answer any further questions you may have.

Thank you

Mrs Susan Davis

    Trans Pennine Trail - Christmas Activity Pack
    Dear Parents/Carers, The Trans Pennine Trail team have created a pack containing lots of exciting holiday activities that will keep children entertained during the Christmas break. The pack will encourage children to embark on a winter treasure hunt, solve a word scramble, and test their knowledge with a fun quiz. They’ll also be able to craft a hanging star decoration and make wildlife-friendly magic reindeer food to spread a little holiday magic. In addition, they will be able to delight family and friends with a selection of Christmas cracker jokes guaranteed to bring a smile to their faces. The activity pack can be used ‘on the go’ by downloading it to a mobile or can be printed at home. The transpennine team are also happy to send out printed copies to families who don’t have a printer or are unable to access the PDF. All you need to do is email your address to info@transpenninetrail.org.uk and they will post it out to you. The activities can be downloaded from the children’s page at: https://www.transpenninetrail.org.uk/welcome-to-our-childrens-page/ or by downloading the attached PDF. Kind regards, The School Office

    LBT panto trip contributions
    Dear Parents/Carers, Thankyou very much if you have paid your contribution of £12 towards your child's visit to the Lawrence Batley Theatre in December. We have written to you before to explain that school will have to cancel these trips if we do not receive enough contributions. Although more parents and carers have paid since our last PING message, we still haven't received enough contributions for the trips to go ahead. We understand that it can be difficult for some families to make full contributions which is why we have heavily subsidised the cost of the trip by £8 per child to keep the costs as low as possible for our families. If you still need to pay, please use Parent Pay or call in to the school office to pay there. Kind Regards, Mrs Davis
