Dear Parents/Carers

Firstly I’d like to wish you all a good half term week-let’s hope this lovely weather continues so we can make the most of it during the break. On the Monday we come back our year 5 pupils will be off on their residential trip to Mersea followed by year 6 the following week. Teachers have planned lots of exciting activities/trips for those not going, so lots to look forward to!

Next half term promises to be very busy with lots of end of term activities planned-I have listed key dates below so parents/carers who need to can make the necessary arrangements in plenty of time.

Please ensure your child has their PE kit in school. PE/games are part of the National Curriculum and as such all pupils are expected to take part so it is important, especially in this hot weather, that they have the correct clothing.
