Dear Parents and Carers,

Congratulations to our 5 Star Kitchen!

This week our school kitchen was visited by the Environmental Health Team to carry out their annual inspection. We are pleased to inform you that our kitchen has been rated 5 Stars for food hygiene and safety!! 

Congratulations to our kitchen team for their continued hard work. 

Photographs on Facebook

As you know, we currently use Facebook to promote our school and keep parents informed of what’s been happening throughout the school day. We love sharing photographs of the wonderful work our pupils have been doing, however we currently have a number of parents who have not given consent for photographs to be used  - this may be through your own choice or simply a forgotten tick box on a form! 

We would like to be able to include as many pupils as possible in the photographs we use, so if you would like to give consent for your child’s photograph to be used on Facebook, or even update your consent options, please call into the school office to let us know. 

Curriculum Information

In preparation for the upcoming parents’ evening, we are publishing overviews of each classes current curriculum on the school website (Years 1-6) -

https://sites.google.com/a/ctk.education/www/learning/our-curriculum

These overviews will shadow you what your child is learning each term.

Attendance

Well done to the following classes who had attendance at over 97% this week:  

  • Year 3 with 97% attendance.
  • Year 6 with 97% attendance.

O uwagę naszych polskich prelegentów

Please help! We have a growing number of Polish families joining our community and it has become increasingly important for us to learn some Polish words and phrases related to school. Do we have a parent who feels they would be able to run a regular, short Polish lesson for staff after school on a Wednesday? We would be very grateful for your help! Please speak with Mrs Jordan if this is something you feel you may be able to do with us.

Secondary School Applications

Secondary school applications must be submitted by 31st October 2021. Please follow the link for information on how to support your child’s application submission.
