Dear Parents/Carers,
Attendance
Well done to the following classes for achieving 97% or more attendance:
- Year 1 - 99%
- Year 2 - 99%
- Year 5 - 97%
This means that Year 1 and Year 2 will have a non-uniform day on Friday 20th January 2017.
100% Attendance assembly
On Monday 16th January we will be celebrating 100% attendance for last term. If your child had 100% attendance, they will received a certificate which allows them to wear non-uniform on Monday and will be entered into a draw to win a new storybook.
CTK Reading Volunteer Team
To give children even more opportunities to read regularly, we are planning to create a Christ the King Team of Reading Volunteers. We are planning to offer volunteers training and support so that they can help children’s reading improve. If you are interested, and are able to offer some time on a regular basis, please contact the school office and Mrs Higgins will make contact to give you more information.
Parent Helpers for School Trips
We would like to create a small team of parents who are available to help out with school trips. We would offer some simple training and a full DBS clearance to ensure safety. Parent volunteers would not necessarily be on trips with their own child’s class but would have a great opportunity to support the school and our children. Please contact the school office if you are interested.

These can now be found on the school website under the Learning tab. They help explain what the tests look like this year so that we can all help support our children.
