Dear Parent/Carer,

Staffing

We will be saying good-bye to Mrs Hazel Nicholson, who is retiring, Miss Claire Wright and Mrs Angela Graham, who will all be leaving us at the end of this term. We wish them all well for the future. Miss Jane O’Toole will be returning from maternity leave in September to teach Year 1.

Celebration of Achievements

Rebecca Dagnall, Leanne Hunt, Lauryn Duffy, Cameron Bembridge, Mikenagh Quirke, Vivian Johnson, Connor Crudge, Lara Brown, Aengus Mooney, Julia Lewkowicz, William Brain and Anthony Dimuna, Georgia Brain and Callum Robbins.
All are welcome to Monday morning’s Celebration Assembly.

Absence Policy

Another reminder if your child is unwell and unable to attend school, we ask you to please inform us by telephone or by letter by 9.30am. If a message has not been received we will need to contact the home address to confirm the whereabouts of your child. We cannot take a message from a child (It has to be from the parent/carer).

Jump Rope For Heart

This year our school has registered with the British Heart Foundation’s Jump for Heart programme. This programme recognises the important role regular physical activity plays in maintaining and improving health and aims to introduce pupils to the massive potential of skipping.
An important part of Jump Rope for Heart is the organisation of a Jump Off. This is a sponsored event which will take place at the end of the progressive series of skipping lessons and will enable the children to demonstrate, through a number of activities, how they have developed their skipping ability. Our Jump Off will be held on Monday 14th July, and we would greatly appreciate any sponsors or donations that you can collect to help contribute towards achieving a big overall total.
We hope you will support your child and the British Heart Foundation in this very worthwhile programme.
