Dear Parent and Carers,
Camp 2012
Welcome back to the group of Year 5 and 6 pupils and staff who returned early from the Forest of Dean yesterday evening. This was due to a significant outbreak of sickness Wednesday evening and the forecast of heavy snow in the Forest of Dean area.
INSET Day
The school will be closed on Monday 20th February for staff training. The school will reopen on Tuesday 21st February.
School Uniform
We now have a new supplier for school uniform - the details of which are attached to this newsletter.
Child Care Provision - Childminders
We are compiling a list of registered childminders to pass onto parents and carers. If you are, or know of, a good registered childminder, please let the school office know
Child Care Provision – before and after school (consultation)
Recently some parents have expressed interest in the school having its own before school and after school child care arrangements. If the school were able to provide any such provision it would however be at a cost. If you would be interested in using any such provision in the future, please contact the school office. We will then decide, based on the interest, whether it is viable to introduce such childcare in the future.
Currently we have only had one parent who has shown interest in the school providing its own childcare provision.
Netball
Netball resumes after half term for years three, four, five and six and will run until Easter. The cost will be £2.50 per session. If your child is interested in playing netball, they can collect a consent form from the office. There are only 30 places available, so it will be on a first come first serve basis.

Camp 2012
Dear Parents and Carers,
Due to a sickness bug and expected heavy snow, in the Forest of Dean, we have decided that the children and staff on camp will be returning to Bristol this evening.
All children are safe and well cared for, although some have been suffering from a tummy upset. Some of these children are feeling better but are tired. Some children are still poorly and area being cared for.
We have arranged for a coach to collect the children from Parkend at 5pm, and we anticipate that the group will return to school by 6pm.
To avoid the risk of further contamination, we request that all children stay at home tomorrow.
PLEASE KEEP AN EYE ON THE SCHOOL BLOG FOR FURTHER UPDATES
