Dear Parent/Carers,

A REMINDER THAT THE SCHOOL IS CLOSED TOMORROW!!!! INSET DAY

Sing-Up Gold Award

Well done to everyone as we now have our Gold Award, which was presented this week and is now proudly taking place on the wall in the corridor. A big thank you to all the children, parents, Mrs Marsh and all the staff for this achievement. There was also a feature published in the Evening Post on Wednesday about the school receiving this award.

Lepra - Health in Action

Thank you to everyone who supported Lepra Health in Action. We have raised so far an amazing £600.00 and money is still coming in! This money will help cure many people of this terrible disease.

Red Nose Day

This takes place Friday 18th March. The PTFA and school have plans for this day. We will keep you informed of what is happening at the start of Term 4.

Parents Evening

Parents Evening letters will be going out on Monday, 28th February. The dates are Tuesday 8th March and Thursday 17th March.

School Attendance

Well done to Mrs Rollings, Mrs Ford and Mrs Patton’s classes with great attendance of 98%.

200 Club

The winners for December and January draw are:-
Mrs M Palmer £24.00
Mrs S Tuohy £23.50
We thank all members of the club for their continuing support.
Tickets cost £1 each. If you are interested in joining the club, please see Mrs Gossan

Newsletters

Although we have had a few teething problems with e-mailing out the newsletter, we are now ready to reduce the number of paper copies that we send out. After the February holiday, we will only be sending out paper copies to those who have requested them or have not given their e-mail address. If you would like to receive newsletters by e-mail, please let the office have your current e-mail address as soon as possible.

Internet Safety

We are sending out updated letters, guidance and permission slips after half-term. Please read them carefully with your children and return them to the school. These slips are very important as we do need updated permission for children to continue using the internet in school.
