Afternoon all,

Please can I gently remind you ( mainly Y5/6) that children are not allowed to wear lots of jewellery to school. We allow a watch and one sensible earring.

This last week with Y5/6 we’ve noticed a lot of bracelets, rings, multiple earrings and necklaces creeping in.

We would really appreciate your help with this.

We had our talk from the Head of Newbridge last week and their policy is the same so this is helping to get them into good habits for their next school too!

Thank you,

Mrs Robbins

Morning all,

Next Friday, the day before half term, we are having a special Jubilee day!

The children can wear whatever they like to school as long as something they wear is either red, white or blue.

In the morning all the classes will be doing Jubilee activities and then after dinner all of the classes will be going to the park to enjoy an afternoon of fun.

Please could you pack your children an extra drink and some little treats for example some crisps, a piece of fruit, a cake and some sweets so that we have an afternoon mini treat picnic whilst we are there. The teachers are then planning some games and activities for the park.

If it rains we will have our fun afternoon in our classrooms.

This will be a lovely way to end our half term.

Many thanks,

Mrs Robbins

Message from our PTA:

Hi! The children will be coming out this week with empty cups for our Jubilee themed cup tombola.

Please help us raise money for the PTA fund for the school by filling these cups with a few little gifts (sweets, chocolate, pens and pencils etc) and decorating them with a Jubilee theme!

All cups need to be returned to school please by Tuesday 24th May.

The children will have an opportunity to win them back on Friday 27th May for £1. Thank you for your support. Xx

Morning all,

We are really looking forward to this week as we hold KS2 class assemblies! It’s lovely to be able to have parents/carers back in school and you’ll also be able to have a look at your children’s books.

All the dates went out on the newsletter.

If you need a reminder please send your child’s teacher a message or ring the office later today.

For now we are limiting class assemblies to 2 adults per child in line with our risk assessment.

I’m really looking forward to seeing them all!

Mrs Robbins

Good morning,

If you have time we would really appreciate you answering a short survey. It only has a few questions:

Thank you very much,

Good morning all,

The local authority have given all schools guidance regarding who collects children from school and asked us to tighten up on these procedures.

It won't apply to most of you, as I know nearly all our children are collected by adults.

However, going forward primary school children will not be able to be collected by a sibling under the age of 16 unless the school has written permission from the parent/carer.

We are happy to help with this, so if there are any of you who regularly get a sibling to collect the children and this sibling is under 16 please can you put this in writing to the school making it clear you give permission for this to happen.

If you have any questions or need any help please ring the office and we will be only too happy to help.

Many thanks,

Mrs Robbins

Good afternoon,

I hope you all had a good Easter break. As you know there are lots of changes happening with the curriculum and one of the big changes is that from September there will be an area of the curriculum called ' Relationships and Sexuality Education'. All of this will be taught at an age appropriate level and so I hope you find this short video helpful in knowing the kinds of things your children will be taught about. We will be starting to introduce these lessons over this Summer term.

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to contact your child's teacher.

Over the next two weeks, the children in KS2 will be making rockets and junk model instruments.

We are asking for donations please:
- Empty plastic bottles (the big 2L ones will work the best) for the rockets.
- General clean recycling like cardboard boxes and plastic tubs for the instruments.

And on other brilliant news we have raised £1950 for the Alzheimer’s Society.

That is simply amazing and a great way to end the term ❤️
