Letter to Parents and Carers: Shafton Sharks

Fri 20 Jun 2025
Dear Parents and Carers,  

In April we launched our entrepreneurial project ‘Shafton Sharks’ where students bid for money to create produce to sell for profit. 

You will have seen on social media that our first selling event is taking place today after school, outside school reception. Students will be able to buy products from the sale from 2.30pm  - 3.00pm with further events taking place later on in the term. 

Our students have worked hard to develop and promote their products and there will be a range of products on sale such as bracelets, wax melts and arts and crafts. It is important to note that in line with school policy, any items bought in the sales are for use at home and should NOT be brought into or worn in the academy. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at e.littlewood@shafton.outwood.com

Yours faithfully, 


Esther Littlewood
Assistant Principal
