Dear Parents/Carers,

Although the weather is mixed can I remind you all that in this changeable weather the children do need a rain coat and to bring a hat and to have applied sun cream before school.  We do spend long periods of time outside during this term and these measures will help to keep the children safe.

 

Sports Afternoon

We will be having our sports afternoon on Wednesday 18th June at 13.30 – 3pm.  Can everyone please make sure kits are in school as we will be having extra PE sessions over the coming days.

 

London Trip

Year 6 are off to London on 26th June.  There will be a meeting for parents at 2.45pm on Monday 9th June. 

 

 

Dinner Money

Due to increased food costs there will be a rise in cost for school meals in September.  The Governing Body have agreed to support families by subsidising some of the additional cost but the daily charge will be £2.60 a day which is £13.00 per week.

 

School Uniform

I know it is tricky at this time of year with children growing and shoes wearing out but can we please ensure that all children are in school uniform.

  • Maroon sweatshirt or cardigan
  • Black or grey trousers/shorts/skirt or a red gingham dress in summer.
  • Plain white or maroon polo shirt
  • Black shoes (these should have a sensible heel and if wearing trainers, they should be all black including the sole).

 

Holidays

Can I please remind parents that holidays in term time are not allowed and will be un-authorised.  Every day at school is important and if they are not in school as we reach the end of the year your children miss out on lots of valuable transition support and enrichment, which prepares them for the next year.
