Well done Year2!
The overall attendance for the whole school for the week is 94% which is below our school target of 97%. This is due to the number of term time holidays taken in school.
We have enjoyed another very successful week in school. The staff have been very impressed with the learning this week.

Halloween Disco
Tickets are now on sale for our Halloween Disco to be held on Thursday 26thOctober, please call into the office for more information. This was a very successful event last year with lots of prizes to be won.
Safety in the morning and end of the day
We have asked parents /carers on several occasions to not allow pupils to play on the fixed play equipment. Myself and other staff have witnessed several incidents of pupils playing unsupervised and risking injuring themselves. There have also been several occasions where children have become upset due to boisterous play. Please ensure that your children are reminded that this equipment is ONLY to be used during the school day when there is adequate supervision andsafe ratios.
Please be aware that it is the parents’ responsibility to supervise their children at these times on the playground.
PE Kit
School policy states that children must have a PE kit for indoor and outdoor PE lessons. This must be a change of footwear for outdoor PE, black or navy blue shorts and a white t-shirt or polo shirt.
We have had quite a lot of children coming to school with no PE kit either for lessons or afterschool clubs.
We are asking parents to please provide your child with the correct equipment for PE, as they are a compulsory part of the curriculum.
Yours sincerely
Mrs. T Gulliver
Headteacher.
