Weekly Newsletter - 16/12/22





Dear Parents and Carers,

This week Year 3 and 4 started off the Christmas season with their show- Babushka. The children did a wonderful job in performing and told a beautiful story of kindness and love.

Performance Information

We ask that all parents and carers enter through the junior playground and green gate for Year 2, 5 and 6 performances and outside of the nursery entrance for Nursery, Reception and Year 1 performances. Once all of the children are in place parents and carers will be invited to take a seat in the hall.


Where afternoon performances start at 2:15pm (not year 2), you will be able to collect your child from the playground afterwards. The teachers will release the children in the usual way. You will not be able to collect siblings early as we do not have the staffing capacity to support this.

We look forward to seeing more of you next week!

Morning Clubs

Morning sports clubs start at 7:45am. Please make sure that your child is accompanied by an adult until this time. Access to the school office should be through the playground and the green gate that leads to the office. Children should not be walking through the carpark.



Christmas Dinner Day

Christmas Dinner Day is Friday 16th December so there will be a change to the menu next week. The children will have Friday’s option on Thursday. Children and staff are also invited to wear their Christmas jumpers. This is not a non-uniform day and all children should wear their school uniform.



School uniform

Please ensure that your child wears the correct school uniform to school every day. All children should wear: A bottle green sweatshirt or cardigan, collared white t-shirt, and black trousers or tailored skirt. Leggings are not part of the uniform policy and should not be worn to school. Children may wear flat ankle boots (no heels). We have also requested that school fleeces be made available with the uniform provider and we will inform you when they are available. If you need support with uniform costs please speak to the office as you may be eligible for uniform vouchers if you have not already received these this school year. PE Kits: plain black/grey jogging bottoms or black/green shorts and white t-shirt with appropriate footwear.
