Dear Parents and Carers,
Parents’ Evening
Parents' Evening will be held on Tuesday 22nd and Wednesday 23rd March, from 3:30-6pm. These will be held in school and at a safe distance. From Monday afternoon, please contact the school office to book your appointment.
Attendance
Well done to YEAR 4 who have achieved 97% attendance this week - keep up the good work.
We’ve seen lots of illness across the school this week, and whilst we want to ensure all our pupils are fit and healthy, please remember that most minor ailments aren’t a reason to miss lessons and can usually be managed in school.
Thank you for your continued support in helping us to improve attendance.
Clubs
Please be aware there will be NO MULTI SPORTS CLUB NEXT WEEK (THURSDAY 18TH MARCH) due to staff training. If you have already booked this session, your payment will be refunded to your School Gateway account.
Lateness
Please be reminded that the school day starts at 8.50am, with the doors opening at 8.40am to enable children to come onto site and get settled. We have recently had a number of children arriving late, and as well as starting the day off in a stressful way for the late child, it can also be disruptive to the rest of the class. Please ensure children arrive at school on time, every day. Frequent lateness may result in a Penalty Notice (fine) being issued.
Breakfast Club
As you may know we run a daily Breakfast Club for our pupils. Breakfast Club runs daily from 8am and is a great opportunity for children to have a healthy breakfast and socialise with their friends before school. Not only is Breakfast Club great for socialising and promoting healthy eating habits, it can also greatly benefit children’s attendance and behaviour. For pupils from Reception-Year 6, Breakfast Club is just £1 per day, and doors are open for breakfast until 8.20am (children arriving after this time will miss food service). If you would like to book a space at Breakfast Club, you can do this using the School Gateway app.
If you have a nursery aged child and would like further information about a space at Breakfast Club, please contact the school office.
