Talk to us, not about us

Dudley Voices for Choice are a user led charitable organisation that supports people with learning disabilities and autism to speak up for themselves. Please find attached their calendar of support you can access during January.

Last night, our EYFS and KS1 children returned to school for a truly magical evening with Santa, and what a wonderful time they had!

The children snuggled down to watch a lovely Christmas film, enjoyed delicious chocolate milk and a tasty snack, and soaked up the festive atmosphere. But the highlight of the evening was, without a doubt, a very special visit from Father Christmas himself!

Despite his exceptionally busy schedule, Santa made time to come and see our children, spending time answering their many curious questions and sharing festive cheer with everyone. The children were absolutely thrilled and their smiles lit up the room brighter than any Christmas lights!

We would like to say a huge thank you to the Friends of Lapal for organising this memorable event, and to all the staff who supported and helped make the evening so magical.

It was a wonderful way to build excitement for the festive season—a night the children will remember!

A huge congratulations to a year 5 pupil and his teammates from Halesowen Town Colts U10s West and U17s for taking part in an incredible charity event on 10th December. Together, they have already raised an amazing £1,635 – what an achievement!

The U10s ran 5K dressed as Elves, while the U17s took on a 12K challenge dressed as Santa at The Dell Stadium running track. Their goal? To bring joy to children spending Christmas in Birmingham Children’s Hospital, Russell’s Hall Hospital Children’s Ward C2, and Sandwell West Birmingham Hospital. The lads plan to personally choose and deliver gifts to these children, putting smiles on their faces during the festive season.

But that’s not all – they also want to create food hampers and gift packages for local families who may be struggling at this time of year. This is about spreading kindness and making a real difference in our community.

We are incredibly proud of the whole team for their dedication to such a wonderful cause. Thank you to everyone who has supported them so far – your generosity is helping to make this possible.

Well done – you’ve shown what true community spirit looks like!

Yesterday, our wonderful choir filled the playground with festive cheer, singing carols and spreading the Christmas spirit. Alongside this, our amazing Friends of Lapal worked tirelessly to serve delicious hot chocolates and mince pies, creating a truly joyful end to the day.

Thanks to your incredible support, we raised over £140! A huge thank you also goes to the Co-op for their generous donation of 600 mince pies, which made this event possible.

Because of this amazing contribution, we’re excited to announce that we’ll be selling mince pies and hot chocolates again on Friday 19th December at 2:00pm. Please bring cash and treat yourself to a festive delight while supporting our school.

As always, we are so grateful for the continued support of our school community. Thank you for helping us make these moments special and raise further funds!

Our Reception children had an amazing time on their very first school trip! We visited the MAC Theatre to watch The Owl Who Came for Christmas and were captivated by the enchanting story. The children loved listening to the tale, dancing along to the lively songs, and joining in with the fantastic performance. They were absolute superstars and represented Lapal beautifully – we couldn’t be prouder!
