Reminder that the school day starts at 8.45am, not 9am.

In the morning children need to be dropped off at the playground by 8.45am so they can line up with their class and be taken to their classroom by their teacher. If your child is late and their class has already gone into school please do not take your child to their class. Teaching Assistants will be on the door at KS1 and will take children who are late to their class.

We have incorporated further safeguarding systems in school and all visitors/parents in school have to sign in and wear a coloured lanyard so they are identifiable in school. Parents should therefore not be in the school building unless they have signed in at the school office.

If the school gate is closed children need to be dropped at the office and signed in.

Thank you for you support and cooperation.

World Book Day - Thursday 7th March

The children are invited to come dressed as their favourite book character. 

It does not matter if it is a shop bought or a homemade outfit, the important thing is that it is a character the children love and one they know something about. 

There will also be a class prize for the best costume - we love when the children get creative and make their own costumes

Year 1 have been working very hard this half term to learn to play the ukulele. We would like to invite you to a ukulele concert which will take place on Thursday 21st March, at 2pm. Please could you arrive at the school office at 1:50pm, so that the concert can start at 2pm. Your child would really love for you to see their wonderful performance and the songs they have learned. If you can not attend, we will record parts of the performance and they will be posted on seesaw.

Parents Evening – Tuesday 12th and Wednesday 13th March 2024

Parent/Teacher interviews will take place on Tuesday 12th and Wednesday 13th March 2024; this is your opportunity to discuss your child’s progress; celebrate previous success and make decisions together about any particular weaknesses that need to be addressed in the future

You will have received a text message/email from school which will take you to a web based booking system so that you can book your appointments. If you do not receive a text/email, or if you have any problems, please call the school.

The interviews will take place in your child’s classroom. You will be able to look through your child’s books either before or after the interview. Interviews will be limited to ten minutes. Should you wish to have a longer session it will be necessary to make a further appointment with the class teacher as unfortunately we do not have the capacity to allow appointments to overrun. Please also remember if you have more than one child in school to give yourself time between appointments to get to each class.

We look forward to seeing you.

Yours sincerely,

Dr L Owen

Headteacher
