Evening Nativity Performance Information – Monday 9th December

Please can all Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 children be brought to school for 5.30pm on Monday 9th December.  (This will give them time to get their costumes on and settle down before the performance begins at 6.00pm).

If you are not staying to watch, please can you be back at school to collect your child from outside their classrooms at 6.45pm.

Thank you!  We hope you all really enjoy whichever Nativity performances you are able to attend, the children are very excited about performing for you all!

Missing Books

Dear Parents,

We have completed our reading book audit and unfortunately there are still 74 books missing and this is a substantial amount. These missing books have accumulated over the past two years.

We would be very grateful if you will have another really good look at home over the summer as, if we were to order all of these books, it would cost the school a significant amount of money! They are vital for us to be able to deliver the reading scheme effectively to provide the best reading experience for our pupils.

If these books are not returned and this level of depletion continues, then I will have no choice but to start charging parents for missing books.

Rooms 3 & 5 African Experience Day – possible cancellation

Unfortunately we have not (as yet) had sufficient parental contributions for the African Experience Day to go ahead, so a decision will be taken this Wednesday (14 March 2018) as to whether or not to cancel the day.

This is a great shame as it is an experience we have previously organised and it was very successful. The children thoroughly enjoyed the day and despite it appearing to be costly for an in-house visit, it was deemed to have been very good value for money.

As I am sure you can appreciate, taking children off site always involves an additional cost for transport and means the activities are more limited because travel time is lost. By having visitors to our school this means we get a day full of activities which is better value for the children.

You will be informed on Wednesday of the decision, in the meantime, thank you to those of you who have already paid. It isn’t too late to contribute to the African Experience Day to ensure it can still go ahead. If you haven’t yet used your £6 credit (refund from the Chester Zoo visit) this can be applied to the cost so it would leave £6.50 to pay. Thank you.

Apologies to Room 5, PE mix up.

To parents of Room 5,

A quick email to send my apologies to Room 5. I recently sent out an email stating that your children will be having an extra PE session with a local cricket coach, starting on Wednesday 31st. This is incorrect as I got the class room numbers wrong.

The extra PE session is available for Room 8 and Room 3.

I apologise for the inconvenience (and probably confusion) which this has caused.

Kind regards,

Miss Evans (Room 8 teacher)
