Dear Parents/Carers,

Book-Tastic Book Fair

Congratulations to everyone for such brilliant support at our book fair. As a result of books purchased we have managed to raise a magnificent £785.11 which will be shared between the classes and spent directly on books for your children to enjoy.

A huge thank you goes to you all for showing such commitment and interest in our children’s  learning.

Miss Gaunt, our Reading Recovery Teacher, will sadly be leaving us in September. We wish her luck in her new Reading Recovery role in Berkshire.

Sports Day - Wednesday 3rd July 1pm The Park, Daventry Road

The children will wear their PE kit (black/blue shorts and white t-shirt) and trainers or daps to school. All children will need a water bottle.
All the children will be walking with the staff to the Park to start at about 1pm. Once the races are finished parents/carers can collect their children and take them home from The Park. Children can only be collected by adults that usually collect them from school. 

If parents/carers are unable to attend sport’s day these children will walk back to school with staff and be ready  at 3.15pm.

If the weather is either very hot or it is raining there maybe changes to the arrangements and these will be sent by text during the morning.
