Weekly Newsletter - 04.10.24
Weekly Newsletter - Important Information
Friday 4th October 2024
Dear Parents and carers,
We hope that you have had as much fun as we have this week! This week children in Year 3 have come to share their alternative traditional stories with me and I was blown away by their use of vocabulary and sentence structure. Well done to year 3.
Next week is our Harvest Festival week, we will be collecting donations for the Harold Hill food bank. If you are able to, please send in a donation of canned and packet foods throughout next week.
Tesco Stronger Starts
You may have already seen that Mead ARP have been selected as one of the options for Tesco stronger starts (the blue tokens) to raise money to improve for the ARP playground. You can vote for our school now until January 2025 in over 15 different Tesco stores. Please help us by collecting the blue tokens and voting for us!
Parents Evenings Year 1- 5
We are looking forward to sharing all of the wonderful things your children have been learning with you during parents evening on Tuesday 15th and Wednesday 16th October. Your child’s teacher will send out their availability via Ping this week. If you are unable to attend your parents evening appointment please let your child’s teacher know in advance where possible. All KS2 appointments will be held in the dining hall.
Year 6 parents and carers will receive a letter sharing the details of a Year 6 meeting on Tuesday 22nd October and Wednesday 23rd October.
Nursery and Reception parents meetings will be held later in the Autumn term once the children are fully settled into their new routines. A letter will be sent out by the Reception team with dates and details of how to book online.
Reception Open Days
Please book through the school website. The link can be found on the bottom of the home page. The next dates are:
Thursday 17th October at 10am,
Thursday 24th October at 1.30pm,
Friday 8th November at 1:30pm
Wednesday 13th November at 10am
Meeting with staff
We are always happy to meet with parents and carers, should you have any questions or queries please speak directly to your child’s teacher at the end of the school day. Should you need to speak to them or a member of the senior leadership team, please contact the school to make an appointment to do so. You can contact the year group directly using the year group email address or contact mail@mead.havering.sch.uk should you need a longer meeting time or to talk in private.
Collecting children from the office
When collecting your child earlier than the end of the day the office will ask you for the reason you are collecting early so that the children can be signed out. If you are attending an appointment you will be asked for evidence of the appointment so that the absence can be authorised. Any other reasons for collecting early will be unauthorised.
The front office is becoming increasingly busy at the end of the school day. If you are collecting your child from here please let the office know that you are here and wait outside for your child to be seen out by a member of staff. We are hoping this will ensure that the space remains clearer and safer for all.
