Friday 11th September, 2015

Dear Parents/Carers,
Macmillan Cancer Support Coffee Morning  a message from Year 6
                                                                                                                                          
On Friday 25th September Year 6 will be having a coffee morning for the charity of Macmillan Cancer Support. It is a charity which supports children and other people who suffer from cancer. There will also be a non-uniform day. If you want to wear non-uniform you are asked to bring £1. All this money will go to the Macmillan charity.

There will also be lots of fun games and activities such as Penalty Shootout, Speed Stacking, Pick n Mix, Pick a stick and Blow the ball and other fun things during the day. The coffee and cakes will be held in the school hall from 10:30 until 11:30.

Inhalers

If you have not sent in your child’s inhaler, could you please do so by Monday 14th September.

Road Safety – Zig Zag lines

These lines (including the bus bay) are now enforceable. This means that Bristol City Council will be using mobile cameras to photograph vehicles that are parked illegally and will be issuing fines. We have been asked to contact the enforcement department with details of vehicles parked (or stopping) illegally. It is also very dangerous to drop a child off in the middle of the road.

Security

For security reasons, when children arrive late, we are unable to allow parents to escort their children to their classrooms. Children are more than capable of walking to classrooms by themselves.

After School Clubs

Gardening Club will start next week.

All clubs will be ongoing until further notice and most clubs will be at no cost. The only cost will be if parents wish their child to also be cared for in the Extended School Club and for our new Italian Club (which is now full).

Places are limited and offered on a first come-first served basis.

Unfortunately we are unable offer clubs to children in Reception at the moment.

Please contact the school office to see if any places are available. All clubs will take place every week unless parents are otherwise notified in the newsletter or by text.

Children who are attending after school clubs should attend regularly as we need commitment for the clubs to operate effectively.
