Weekly Newsletter - 20/11/2020



20th November 2020

Dear Parents,

We are very much looking forward to welcoming our Nursery children back into school on Monday and desperately hoping that we can have all our children in school between now and Christmas.


PLEASE DO NOT STOP/PARK ON THE ZIG ZAG LINES OUTSIDE OUR SCHOOL GATES-I HAVE HAD A REPORT OF ANOTHER NEAR MISS INVOLVING ONE OF OUR CHILDREN

I am putting this message on every week and whilst fewer parents are stopping here there are still a few who are totally ignoring my plea-We ALL have a responsibility to keep our children safe!


Havering Catering Services

Week beginning Monday 23rd November is week 1 on the Havering catering services menu. All meals are served with unlimited salad and vegetables and cost £2.25. The menu can be accessed here (it says infant school but is the menu for both infants and juniors).

Please be reminded to top up your child’s catering account as we cannot provide dinners for pupils whose accounts exceed a debt of £10.
