Dear Parents and Carers,
Bank Holiday
A reminder that Monday 3rd May is a bank holiday.
INSET Days
Can we confirm that the first two days of the new academic year will be INSET days (Thursday 2nd and Friday 3rd September). This means that the school will open for children on Monday 6th September.
A reminder that the school will also be closed for staff training on Friday 14th May and Monday 14th June.
School Uniform
Please ensure all children are in sensible school uniform - not too small, tight or short. We do understand that many children will have grown over lockdown and the Easter holidays and that there are not always the right sizes available to buy but please keep trying.
Here is a reminder of our school uniform:
- PLAIN BLACK shoes or trainers
- grey / black trousers or skirts – no tracksuit bottoms, or leggings
- red sweatshirt or cardigan or fleece
- white / red polo shirts
- PE Kit (which is plain white t-shirt / plain black shorts and PE daps or trainers)
Many thanks
PE kits
From Monday 22nd March please can children come into school in their PE kit on the day they have PE. At the moment we do not have space to store PE kit in a COVID safe way and therefore this is the safest way for our children to be appropriately dressed for their PE lessons and remain safe. PE kit is a plain and non-branded white t-shirt, non-branded black/navy shorts and black daps or black trainers. If the weather is cold, children can wear navy/black tracksuit bottoms over their shorts to keep them warm. Please see class PE days below.
- Monday- Reception and Year 6
- Tuesday- Year 1 and Year 5
- Wednesday- Year 4
- Thursday- Hub, Year 2 and Year 3
