Friday 8th Sept

Welcome Back 

Dear Parent/Guardian,

Welcome to the start of the Autumn Term. The children have settled well and are becoming familiar with their new routines. Everyone looks so smart returning to school in their school uniform, behaviour has been impeccable. Pupils are asked to wear their PE kit to school on a PE day, this consists of a plain white t-shirt and black shorts or joggers, we have had a fantastic response with this, thank you. Please be reminded that attendance is of the upmost importance, I ask you not to take holidays in term time. Taking holidays in term time impacts negatively on the well-being and progress of your child.

I look forward to working with our new families and existing families over the academic year.

Regards

Miss Rutledge

(Headteacher)

 

Extracurricular Clubs

Due to popular demand, Science Club and Forest School Club will now be running on a half termly basis. All pupils who haven't been allocated a place for the first half term will be notified and can start the club week commencing 6th November.  

School will use Google Forms to book Spring Term clubs, further information will be available closer to the time. 

I'd like to take the opportunity to thank staff who take clubs on a voluntary basis.
