Dear Parent/Carers,
Polish Easter Egg Competition
For this competition children have been asked to decorate their own egg in a traditional Polish way. Photographs of these eggs are on the school blog. Children can decorate their eggs either with multi-coloured pens of paints or through the traditional way of boiling the egg with red onion, which colour the shell a browny red, and scratching a design on the egg. The competition costs 50p to enter and the closing date is Tuesday 29th March. All proceeds go to the PTFA fund and the winners and prizes will be announced in the Polish Easter Day assembly on the 30th March. Polish Easter Day will include a special assembly in the morning and Polish refreshments at the end of the school day.
Attendance
A good week last week! Mrs Ford’s class had 96%, Miss Wright’s class had 97%, Mr Conlon’s and Mrs Bell’s classes had 98% attendance and Mrs Patton’s class with an amazing 99%!
Fr Pat De Wolf – Golden Jubilee Mass Fr Pat De Wolf, who was the Parish Priest at St Joseph’s for many years, has just celebrated his Golden Jubilee as a Priest and will be celebrating with us at St Joseph’s Church on Sunday 27th March at the 10.00am Mass. Everybody is welcome and there will be a celebration afterwards.
School Meals
Choose school dinners for a week commencing Monday 28th March, to Friday 1st April, by completing the form sent home in the week and your child could be in a position to win an iPod touch.
Parents Evening - Appointments
For parents evenings over the last couple of weeks, many parents were unable to make appointed times and have requested to meet teacher at other times after school. We feel very strongly that working in partnership with parents is really important and always do our best to be flexible and meet parents when convenient. However, I have noticed that an increasing number of parents are requesting different appointment times which teachers are finding difficult to manage. In future parent’s evenings I would expect all parents to do their upmost to arrange and keep appointments on the set parent’s evenings. Thanks for your cooperation in this matter.
Class Assembly
Miss Wright’s class assembly is on Friday 1st April at 9.15am. All parents welcome.
Lepra
The final amount raised for the leprosy charity Lepra is an outstanding £905.69. Well done to everyone who supported this cause.
