Weekly Newsletter-21st June 2019


Dear Parents,

A huge congratulations to Mr Robinson and Mr Stanbridge and all of the pupils who took part in the Primary sports day at Drapers’ Academy on Monday. We are thrilled and extremely proud to announce that Mead Primary came second overall. It was a wonderful day enjoyed by all.

Please be reminded smoking is prohibited on the school site-this includes vaping

Due to circumstances beyond our control the LFPA have had to change the date of the summer fete. It will now be on Friday 5th July from 14:00-17:00 at Broadford School. Parents wishing to attend the fete will be able to collect their children from Mead at 14:00. I will be sending out a letter nearer the time to ascertain which children will need to be dismissed earlier but please be advised pupils leaving early MUST be collected by their parent/carer.
If you would like to run a stall at the fete please contact Jenny or Lisa-contact details below.
