Weekly Update

Friday 9th December 2016

Dear Parents,

We are very pleased to announce that Parentpay is now up and running and available to make payments on for Dinner Money. Please make sure you activate your account as soon all payments into school can be made this way. Please see the attached letter for more information.

Governors have decided that on Friday 23rd December school for the children will close at 1.15pm. The students will have lunch before school closes. Please ensure that you make the necessary childcare arrangements with this in mind.

Winter Vomiting Bug

We would like to take this opportunity to say that if your child becomes unwell with diarrhoea or vomiting that they need to stay off school for a further 48 hours after symptoms have cleared to avoid passing on the bug.

New Governor

We are pleased to announce that Miguel Garrachon is our new Parent Governor and would like to take this opportunity to welcome him. I would also like to thank Mr Paul Holroyd-Fielding and Miss Paula Hallsworth for their interest and the support they have shown to school.

Lost Property

We are doing our best to keep on top of the lost property in school. Please make sure that all, items of clothing are clearly labelled with your child’s name.

Uniform and PE Kit

Will you please ensure that your child’s uniform including PE kit is clearly labelled. Please see the table below which lets you know the days that each class has PE. It is important that your child has their PE kit in school ready for their lessons. We would recommend that PE kits are brought in on a Monday, and left in school for the whole week. There will be consequences put in place for those children who do not have their kit in school.
