Dear Parents and Carers,
Below are some awards that we would like to share with you and some important information that you should be aware of.
Bank Holiday - Monday 3rd May
Please don’t come to school on Monday as we are closed! We reopen as usual on Tuesday 4th May.
Chromebooks
Children who have been loaned a school Chromebook should bring them back to school on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday. These were originally issued to support with the enforced full school closure and bubble closures; I hope that the recent weeks of non-bubble closures are here to stay now.
Polling Day - Thursday 6th May
The children do not need to come to school on this day and work will be set on Google Classroom. If either parent is a Key Worker or your child is considered to be vulnerable, places are available for children to come to school to complete their Google Classroom learning. A few key points to note:
Breakfast Club will not open on this day as the school kitchen is closed.
Any child staying at school on this day must have a packed lunch.
Please complete the Google form ASAP to secure a place.
School will reopen to all children on Friday 7th May.
Mystery Friday Phone call!
Starting next week, class teachers will be making a mystery phone call to a parent whose child has enjoyed a great week at school. This may be for an academic or non-academic reason and will be a surprise to both you and your child - they will not be told in advance! We introduced this in Y6 a couple of months ago and the feedback from the children, parents and staff has been really positive.
Bikes and Scooters
We advise that children who bring bikes/scooters to school have a simple locking mechanism they can use to secure their bike/scooter to a school stand. This keeps the bike/scooter safe and also ensures that no one takes home the wrong bike/scooter. This may have been the case in Y4 this week; can I ask Y4 parents to check their child has the correct scooter. Thank you.
Attendance
Attendance for this week is 95.5% which is a little disappointing, especially after last week’s fantastic 97%. However, I would like to congratulate Palau and Malta who both achieved 100% this week. They will both have a cupcake party to celebrate their fantastic achievement.
