  Dear Parents/Carers,

                                                                                                                         

  Welcome back after the half term break.

   

  It was lovely to see so many parents and grandparents attend both the sports day and our Jubilee celebrations on the Friday before half term. The dancing from year 3, singing from year 4 and the art galleries from years 5 and 6 made the day a special one and something to remember.  Thank you for all the fantastic contributions to the cake sale, we raised   £270.51  and all proceeds will be put towards the purchase of a tree which we will plant in the school grounds to support the Queens Green Canopy pledge.  

   

  Parents' Evening - Online Appointment Booking for Face to Face Meetings to be held in school

   

  I would like to invite you to attend Parents' Evening in school on Tuesday 7th and Wednesday 8th June between 4pm and 7pm.   Please note 6GB and 6EN only will hold their Evenings on Wednesday 22nd and Thursday 23rd June.  This is an important evening which provides you with an opportunity to discuss your child's progress.

  We would advise you to arrive in school 20 minutes before your appointment to allow time for you to look at your child’s work.

• SCHOOL COUNCIL - FUNDRAISING FUN DAY

  Wed 01 Jun 2022 S.McKinley

  The school council have organised our Fundraising Fun Day for Friday 8^th July 2022.

   

  1. Children are invited to come to school in ‘sports mufti’ and bring in a donation.

   (A suggested £1 – but any contribution is welcome)

  1. A sponsored obstacle race will take place during the day, where the children will have 15mins to complete as many laps as they can. Please help your child to collect sponsors using the form provided.
  2. There will be the opportunity for children to throw wet sponges at some teachers.

  (It will cost 50p for 3 sponges and this is always very popular!)

  1. Bling Your Bike or Scooter! We are encouraging children to bike or scooter to school on Friday 8^th July and to bling their bike. This should be summer themed and prizes will be awarded for the best decorated bikes and scooters.

   

  As a Rights Respecting School we are always thinking of others and ways in which we can help them. For over 10 years we have funded the education of a girl called Agness in Zambia. Not only have we supported her through education, we have also paid for her to have a daily hot meal at school. All monies raised on our Fundraising Fun Day will be used to allow us to continue this funding.

   

  This is a great opportunity for us to have fun whilst raising money to help others. Please make sure any money brought to school that day is in a purse or envelope clearly labelled with your child’s name, as it is their responsibility to look after it.

   

  Don’t forget to put Friday 8^th July in your diary!

   

  Yours sincerely,

   

  Miss S. McKinley
