Dear Parents/Carers,

Year 6 SATs parents information evening

Last night’s session information session was a great success. A big thank you to Mrs Patton and Mrs Bell for organising the meeting and to all the parents who attended.

Helping in School

Recently I had a conversation with parents who were keen to support the school by being available to support classes walking to the school field during the summer months. If you are available to help on a regular basis please let the school office know.

Also, we would love to hear from any parents who have got specific skills or talents and would like to lead an after school activity. Again let the school office know or come and see me in the playground.

School Meals

We now have a new salad bar in the kitchen which the children are really enjoying.

After School Clubs – Athletics and Cricket

There are still places available for Athletics and Cricket, years 1 to 6. Athletics will run on a Wednesday and cricket will run on a Thursday.

If your child is interested, please contact the school office for a Parental Consent Form, which will need to be completed and returned with money prior to the first session. Unfortunately, for safeguarding reasons, children will be unable to join without the school receiving their completed consent form.

Celebration Assembly

There will be a celebration assembly on Monday, where the following children will receive their headteacher award:  Amber Walton,  Harrison Bains-Doyle, Salvatore La Porta, Saul Ayton, Stephanie Williams and Catalina Bodnarescu.

The following children will be receiving sports awards:

Hector Whitaker, Marlen Fernando, Charlotte Petrie, Nile Thomas, Oscar Johannson, Jennifer Eubebeagu, Melanie Lyon, Emily Webb, Samuel Masenyama, Anisa Rasul, Natalia  Franczak, Olivia Woodruff, Kealen Westlake and Harrison Hershbein.

Attendance

Mrs Bell’s class will be able to wear non-uniform next Friday 19^th April for achieving 100% attendance before Easter.
