Back to School BBQ – A Fantastic Start to the New Term at The Ryleys School
There’s no better way to begin a new school year than by bringing our wonderful school community together—and last Friday’s Back to School BBQ did exactly that! Under sunny skies and with big smiles all around, families, pupils, and staff gathered on the school grounds to celebrate the start of what promises to be another exciting and enriching year at The Ryleys 
School.
The event was filled with warmth and laughter as new and returning families came together to reconnect after the summer break. The delicious BBQ food, expertly prepared by our talented Kitchen Team, was a major highlight—offering everything from sizzling burgers to fresh salads, enjoyed by all ages.
Alongside the food, there was plenty of entertainment to keep everyone smiling. Children enjoyed outdoor games and activities, while parents and carers had the chance to relax, catch up, and meet new members of our school community. The event provided a relaxed and friendly environment for families to meet our staff, share summer stories, and look ahead to the exciting opportunities the new academic year holds.
A huge thank you g
oes to our dedicated Social Committee, whose hard work and careful planning helped make the event such a resounding success. From organising the set-up to ensuring everything ran smoothly on the day, their efforts truly brought our community together and created a memorable afternoon for all.
We’d also like to extend our thanks to the many volunteers and staff who supported the event behind the scenes, as well as to all the families who attended. Your presence, energy, and enthusiasm helped make this event a fantastic start to the term.
Here’s to a brilliant year ahead, filled with learning, growth, and many more moments of community celebration!
