    A huge well done to Year 6 for working extra hard last week with their tests. We were all extremely proud of you. 
     
    It is another busy week at Clockhouse which is just the way we like it!
     
    Year 2
    A huge good luck from us all to all the Year 2 children who take their SATs tests this week (Monday - Thursday). They could not have worked harder and we know they will try their very best. Get lots of rest and please ensure that all the children are in school promptly so that they can be settled before starting.
     
    Year 6
    We all hope that Year 6 have a fabulous time in Bournemouth. Please remember to meet your group leader in the canteen on Monday morning. The children will be departing at 8am promptly if you wish to wave them off. Updates about the trip will be on the school blog and dojo.

    We also hope that those staying behind have a great Activity Week! If you have not done so already, please ensure money and consent forms are returned on Monday morning. The children will be going out and without written consent they will not be able to do so.
     
    Year 3
    We look forward to welcoming our Year 3 parents / carers on Tuesday for Learn with my Child at 9.30am - 11.45am. Please come for as little or as much as you can. As with the other year groups, regrettably we are unable to accommodate younger siblings at these events.
     
    On Friday, Year 3 have their marvellous middle where they will have their Athens v Sparta Day, linked to their learning theme. We cannot wait to see their costumes.

    Special Dinner for all
    On Thursday we have another special dinner day. It would be really good to get as many people as possible having dinner on Thursday as this determines some of our schools funding. We really do appreciate your help in this matter.
     
    School Nurse Drop In
    Should you wish to speak to the School Nurse she will be available for you to 'drop in' on Tuesday 2.30pm - 3.30pm. Please call the Key Stage 2 Office to book a slot or just drop in.
