Attendance
Well done to the following classes who have achieved 97% or more attendance this week:
- Year 1 with 98% attendance.
- Year 5 with 98% attendance.
- Year 5R with 100% attendance.
- Year 6 with 99% attendance.
This means that Year 5R and Year 6 will have non uniform days. Their teachers will decide on which day and inform you all via text.
Thank you for your continued support in helping us to improve attendance.
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.
