Jack W competed for Uffculme School at the South-West England Schools Judo Championships in Bideford this weekend.
Despite facing opponents from different weight categories, including a black belt, Jack fought brilliantly to become Under-18 South-West Schools Champion (Under 90kg).
A great achievement and his third consecutive South-West title!
Jack is set on representing Uffculme School at the National Schools Championships in Sheffield in March 2027.
We love to celebrate our students’ achievements both in and out of school. Please email us a photo and a brief summary if your child has any extra-curricular achievements you would like featured in the bulletin. Information should be sent to office@uffculmeschool.bep.ac
Non Uniform Day
We'll be holding a non-uniform day on Friday 20th November in exchange for tombola and raffle prizes for our craft fair - more information will be given to the students via their tutors about what to bring if they are unsure.
🍰 Calling All Bakers – We Need Cake! 🧁
Our fabulous Christmas Craft Fair is nearly here! 🎄 Saturday 21 November, 10am–4pm.
And what would the Fair be without a fantastic selection of homemade cakes?!
Could you bake something for us? We’d love donations of cakes, traybakes (please leave them all uncut), cupcakes or mince pies. Every contribution helps!
📍 Drop-off:
Friday 20 November: School reception
Saturday 21 November: Dining hall, in the morning
Please include an ingredients list (a handwritten note is absolutely fine) so we can provide allergen information. Vegan and gluten-free bakes are very welcome too!
🙌 A Few More Helping Hands Needed!
We’re also looking for a few extra volunteers for the parking and tombola. Even an hour or two would make a difference!

🎄 And Don’t Forget to Come Along!
Bring your family and friends on Saturday 21 November, 10am–4pm for a wonderful day of Christmas shopping, with around 150 stalls offering handmade, local and unique gifts!
Thank you for supporting Uffculme School PTFA! ❤️
Our Exam Certificate Collection Evening is next Wednesday 25th November.
Students who sat exams in Summer 2026 can drop in any time between 5.30pm and 6.30pm. You can collect your certificates, together with any coursework you would like, and catch up with your friends.
We are looking forward to seeing you!
