I am delighted to welcome you to the Totley All Saints website which should give you a flavour of all the amazing things that our children experience at our school!
TASS is extremely special & is well loved by its children, staff & parents! We seek to provide a top quality education, an extremely caring atmosphere & one where children can fully thrive & reach their full & amazing potential! We also want to ensure that the Rights of the Child (as detailed in the UN Convention) are at the forefront of all that we do so please check out our Vision Statement for all that we’re aiming to achieve.
Please click to find just 10 Reasons to choose TASS for your child (there are actually many more)! Thankfully, our children think that our school is amazing too & the School Council came up with their own way of recording this called: How Cool is our School!
OFSTED agreed with what we think & graded us as OUTSTANDING in 5 out of 5 areas!
If you would like to come & have a look to see what TASS can offer your child through a place at our school, then please give us a call – we look forward to hearing from you!

Goodbye to our Amazing Y6!
We will be holding our Y6 Leavers Graduation Ceremony & Reception complete with gowns (made a couple of years ago by Mrs Cotovan & Mrs Glossop) & mortar boards this Friday afternoon! Y6 parents have been invited to the event at 2:00pm for the graduation including a special presentation of graduation certificates plus a special hardback edition of: A History of Totley All Saints Church of England School, Sheffield, 1827-2000’ by Joan Stratford (a previous Head teacher of TASS). This will then be followed by non-alcoholic drinks plus a variety of nibbles before the children go off for the last time. We will miss our Y6s greatly & are so proud of their amazing achievements as well as the wonderful young men & women that they have become! We wish them a bright, happy & prosperous future. Who knows what they will go on to do!
Congratulations—TASS Superstars!
If you would like to see our fantastic whole school results showing how our Y2 & Y6 superstars did in their SATs, then please visit Statutory Information & SATs Results 2018. Once again, all of our results are above the National Average! Well done everyone on their fantastic achievement!
Pirates of the Curry Bean
See you all this week for ‘Pirates of the Curry Bean’ performed by our TASS Superstars! Afternoon performances are at 2:00pm (doors will only open at 1:50pm as we have to set up the hall after lunch). Parents are also asked to bring children to school for 6:10pm (no earlier please as they will not be supervised before this time) to be ready for the evening performance this Tuesday at 6:30pm. Please pick up at 7:45pm on the Tuesday evening from the usual pick up points on the yard. Because this may be a very late bed time for our very youngest children, parents of FS2 parents can pick up their children from the Reception classroom once they have finished their part in the play (please see FS2 teachers for an approximate time). Otherwise, if children are tired the next morning then, as in previous years, we will allow children to come to school in late by close of register that day at 10:00am (school will open as usual for all others & children who arrive after this time will be marked as absent with no lunch orders taken). We look forward to showing off our TASS Superstars!
Goodbye 
Mrs Hobson
It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to Mrs Hobson who has worked with us for the past year on Wednesdays & Thursdays covering classes throughout the school so that teachers can have their PPA (Planning, Preparation & Assessment) time. As well as continuing to be a busy mum, Mrs Hobson will be working at Wizz Kids from September & we wish her well with all that she goes on to do! Parents will remember that we have had major increases to our TASS family last year with lots of maternity leaves! In September Mrs Fullwood will be back teaching with Mrs Keen in Y3 as a job share & Mrs Foster will be back supporting Y1 in November. We also have two members of support staff starting in September with Miss Davis in Y4 & Mrs Ellwood in Y1.
Parent Questionnaires
Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to fill in the Parent Questionnaires so far for this year!! If you still have yours, then please send it in by this Wednesday 18th July at the latest. Many thanks indeed!
Parking Bollards
As parents & carers will well know, over time there have been issues with parking outside of the school gate with several near misses of our children where cars have either reversed out at busy pick up times without due care & attention or have obstructed a clear view of the road. Following several complaints & concerns that a child might be injured or even killed, governors have gained planning permission to install permanent parking bollards to the left & right paved areas just outside of the school gates. It is hoped that this will keep the area clear & so aid the safe arrival & departure of our children both to & from school. The work will take place during the summer break & will involve collapsible bollards that will be up during school times & down when school is not open, i.e. after 4:30 & in the school holidays. Staff at Little Saints Nursery however, will still be able to use some of the paved area to park in, but otherwise the area will be clear. We recognise that the area directly outside of the school gate is currently used for the parking of some cars belonging to neighbours & apologise for the inconvenience that this may cause. Thank you for your support in keeping our children safe.
