Start of year updates

Dear Parents and Carers,

It was a real pleasure to welcome the children back to school this morning – their bright smiles and enthusiasm were a joy to see! We began our day together with a whole-school collective worship, themed around our very own Great British Bake Off. It was a fun and engaging way to talk about the ingredients we’ll be adding to our own Recipe for Success this year. The children’s behaviour was excellent, and we’re excited to build on such a positive start as the year progresses.

While we won't usually send mid-week updates, we have a few important pieces of information to share with you:

School Dinners

As you know, we introduced a new dinner ordering system at the end of last term. There have been a few initial hiccups, and we really appreciate your patience and understanding.

For this week, children will still be able to place their lunch orders in class. From next week onwards, we kindly ask that parents complete dinner orders five days in advance. For example, orders for next Monday will need to be completed by this Wednesday.

ParentMail Updates

ParentMail details are currently being updated to reflect the children’s new year groups. This should be completed by today or tomorrow. Thank you for your patience while this rolls over.

PE Days

PE days are now listed on our school website here.

For children in Reception to Year 3, the outdoor PE lesson rotates each week. Teachers will remind children in class, and we will also include an updated PE schedule with our weekly newsletter. For example, please see next week’s schedule attached.

Breakfast Club

Our Breakfast Club continues to be a fantastic support for families. If you would like to book a place, please do so via ParentMail. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the school office.

School Clubs

Several clubs will begin next week:

  • 10/09 - Yoga Club - 3.30 - 4.30 in Main Hall
  • 12/09 - Art Club - 3.20 - 4.20 in Yr 5 Classroom
  • 12/09 - Tennis - 3.30 - 4.30 in Main Hall

Information about further clubs and their starting dates, including those ran by SCS, will be sent out in the coming weeks.

 

Thank you once again for your continued support. We’re looking forward to a happy and successful year ahead!

Warm regards,

Louisa Sillett

Head of School
