Dear Parent/Guardians,
Once again CAMHS (Child and Adult Mental Health Service) have organized support workshops for our Year 6 pupils across the school and also for you as parents/guardians, during the Easter holidays.
There are further details on the poster attached. You need to register to attend the workshops 24 hours in advance, but is a very easy process via the QR code.

Good Morning,
Just a quick reminder that tomorrow is the last day for the World Book Day competition entries.
Our book fayre will be taking place next week, on the 20th & 21st. Karen Simmonds will be providing the book fayre this year which will be held in our junior hall. We look forward to seeing you. Don’t forget your book tokens ☺️
Diolch,

Morning,
Don’t forget we are doing Comic Relief in school today so the children can wear their own clothes. We know how tight money is so any donations will be welcome. We suggest £1 but please don’t worry if you have lots of children in the school just send in what you can manage. We will pass it all on to Comic Relief.
We’ll be holding a joke competition today too. We might even share the winners on here later.
Thank you,
Mrs Robbins
Good Morning,
Unfortunately, outside of school this morning there was a serious issue with traffic congestion. Thankfully, no one was injured and everyone arrived to school safely. Thank you to those parents/grandparents that helped.
We have contacted Highways today and requested a PCSO to attend school during the morning rush to monitor the traffic. We understand that congestion and parking issues arise, but if we can work together to resolve the issues, we are making it a safer environment for school pupils, staff and residents.
We as a school are always looking for ways to make the drop off and pick up times as simple and as safe as possible. Since the incident this morning, we have decided that, to ease the traffic congestion even further, we are asking the taxi's that bring our Special Resource Base children to school, to now drop off at the side of school (Pond Row Lane) where the children can come through the double gates as it's quieter for them at 9:00am. Please can we ask that people are patient with us if the lane is blocked for a very short period of time, before school at 9:00am and when the children leave at 3:00pm. This will be implemented from tomorrow morning (14/3/24).
Please can we also ask that if the green cones are placed outside of school, people leave them where they are, not moving them or driving over them. They are placed there to make a safe crossing zone for the children. Can we also refrain form parking on double yellow lines and the zig zag lines. We appreciate that sometimes if we're rushing it is tempting to park up quickly to let your child out of the car, but if one person does this, that then leads to more. The safety of our children is paramount.
We thank you for your continued support and cooperation as always.
Many thanks,
Mrs Reardon
Morning all,
Another busy week ahead. Our older children have their trips to Sophia Gardens this week, some going on Tuesday and some on Friday.
For that reason we are celebrating Comic Relief on Thursday. Children can wear their own clothes and a red nose if they’d like. Get your best jokes ready as each class will be having a joke competition. Any donations on that day will be sent to Comic Relief.
Thank you,
Mrs Robbins

Please see the attached flyer for Sports Schemes available over the Easter Holidays.
Morning all,
Just a reminder that online tonight from 6-6.30 is a short workshop about children’s well being. So far only 3 parents have sent me their email to join the meeting.
We would love to have a few more if possible? You can send me your email today if you’d like to come.
Mr Regulski sent out a survey to you all recently about well being. There were only a small number of people who responded but quite a few said they didn’t know enough about the school’s well being processes, so tonight’s meeting would really help.
I will re-post Mr Regulski’s survey in class pages later in case anyone else has time to fill it in.
Many thanks,
Mrs Robbins
Great post I’ve pinched from another school —
Many children nowadays are using social media when ‘officially’ they are too young to sign up to the sites.
Lots of them say that Mums/Dads/Carers have signed them up – sometimes years ago. There’s nothing illegal in that, but please keep in mind that if you signed your 8 year old up to Facebook five years ago, saying they were 13 years old – they now appear as an 18 year old on the site.
If an adult tries to groom your now 13 year old via social media, they will be able to argue that they thought they were talking to another adult. Remember to update their details, check their privacy settings, and talk to them about which pictures they use for their profile, so they’re safe online. Thank you.
Mrs Robbins
Morning again,
Tomorrow night, as advertised on your newsletter (6-6.30) there is a short online session for parents/carers on
‘Supporting Your Child’s Wellbeing’ on teams.
It will cover things like sleep, exercise, diet, mindfulness and support.
If you would like to join please send me your email address later today or tomorrow morning.
Many thanks,
Mrs Robbins
