Dear Parent/Carer,

Allergy Intolerance Referral Fom

Eden Foodservices strives to provide menus for children with special dietary requirements whenever possible.  Their Allergy Intolerance Referral form is essential to allow the Nutrition Department to provide safe, special diet plans. 

We have recently had a couple of children who have said they are allergic to certain foods.  We are unable to let them have a school meal until Eden’s Allergy Intolerance Referral Form has been completed and Eden have been able to work out a special menu for them – forms can be collected from the school office and need to be signed and stamped/completed by a registered medical professional i.e. Doctor, School Nurse ensuring that the information is accurate.

Lifeskills need your support to win a share of £10,000 awards money in Airbus Community Awards
The Year Sixes visited the Lifeskills Centre last week.  This is a place where children learn how to be safe in real life situations.  It is a fabulous resource for Bristol children that need our help.  In the next few weeks Year Six will be holding a fund-raising day for Lifeskills to help towards keeping it going for other children.  In the meantime, if any parent receives the Bristol Post, you can help now by cutting out coupons from the paper and bringing them into school.

Voting coupons will be printed in the Bristol Post from 22 February until Monday, March 21.
Look out for bonus voting days in the Bristol Post when they will be issuing higher value votes. Please note that photocopied voting coupons will not be counted. You can submit as many votes as you like. The more votes Lifeskills receives, the more chance they have of winning an award, as the top 10 groups with the most votes will all win a share of the prize money.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Team Points

St Matthew's Team received the most team points last term and so will be having a celebration afternoon, led by the year 6 children, this Friday, 11th March.  They can wear their own clothes on that day.

School Playground

The playground upgrading has started and this week we should see new tarmac being laid, most likely beginning Tuesday and Wednesday.  This will mean that the playground will be out of use on those days.  Please take note of any signs.
