Some children are wearing large studs or dangling earrings – only small studs are allowed. Also can I remind children that school uniform is black shoes or trainers, not white or trainers of other colours. We will be writing to individual parents if school uniform is not worn.
Medical Appointments
If your child has a dentist or doctor’s appointment during school hours, could you please put a request in writing in advance for the attention of the class teacher.
