There are always a
lot of things going on in school and the local
community. This section gives you a flavour of what we
do. Click here to see

PHOTOS TAKEN BY THE
CHILDREN at the Wensleydale Football Festival.
We like leap frog best, it illustrates our
deeply competitive nature!
A big
thank you to Julie and Carolyn for organising
the 'Walking Bus'. We hope that it becomes a
regular feature of school life at Askrigg.
The famous mentos mints and
diet coke experiment. Drop one pack into the
bottle and retreat quickly! This was part of
science day.
Edgar from Zimbabwe playing
cricket in the playground. He couldn’t wait to
‘vote for change’.
First Aid, hey! Let’s all lay
on the floor.
Willow lanterns made with
Phillip Bradley
Peacock. The School Council
visited other schools and found this recycled
plastic bag peacock. We hope to have one soon.
Marble run, hours of work on
science day. An you make a run that lasts
exactly one minute…I can’t.
Electricity on science day.
It’s funny how children really can concentrate
all day on one thing, when it grabs their
attention and interest.
Everyone getting stuck into
another activity on science day.
A civil engineer in the
making. Fettuccine Towers, far more tricky than
it looks and the maths comes out of the work in
a very natural way.
Living willow tunnels,
another discovery by the School Council, we hope
to have some soon.
