We currently have a large amount of lost property that needs to be reclaimed. It will be on display each day after school this week. Please take some time to look through it, as unclaimed items will have to be disposed of shortly.
I have been asked by Danae Woolacott to mention that there will be a meeting on Wednesday 8th June at 7:30pm regarding the proposal for a bike park. If you would like to attend please call Danae on 370068.
Pupils will be running a stall at the school Summer Fete to raise funds for the project.
Key stage 2 children are in the process of rehearsing for their end of year production, which is “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat”. Would anyone be willing to help make the costumes? Whatever you can offer in terms of time, skills, ideas will be greatly received.
This is approaching fast, therefore would you please start thinking about the following: Sorting out bric a brac and white elephant goods, books and toys which we can sell, making cakes, biscuits for refreshments and cake stall.
Children will be wearing non-uniform on Friday 24th June , therefore they can provide an item for the tombola stall in payment (bottles, tins, non perishable goods, chocolates, bubble bath, soaps etc.).
We are also in need of empty Panda pop type bottles. Please bring the empty bottles to school.
You will shortly be approached to offer some help for stalls on the day of the fete. Please help to support this main school fund raising event.
As you can see this is a really busy but interesting few weeks. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need further clarification or have any concerns or comments about your child’s education.
Yours sincerely
Bernie Green
Head teacher
