It was lovely to welcome the community back to school last week and to hear about everyone's holiday.
Thank you for your responses to the questionnaire as well as your positive feedback from Parents' Evening. We hope you found the meetings with your child's teachers useful and were proud to hear what the teachers had to say. We also hope the children enjoyed 'We are...' Week and they came home inspired. Finally thank you for the support you showed for Amazing Attendance and Perfect Punctuality Week - well done everyone!
We have another busy week ahead.
Year 1
We are very excited to be welcoming a Theatre company to Year 1 on Monday. The Drama Club will be working with Year 1 to complement their learning about London. If you have not sent in the contribution yet, we really would be most grateful if you could do so by the end of the day on Monday.
Year 4
We look forward to welcoming our Year 4 parents / carers for their next Learn with my Child session on Tuesday at 9.10am - 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.
China
Following the postponement of China's Learn with my Child session before half term, we are looking forward to welcoming China parent's on Wednesday (9.10am - 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.
World Book Day
Next Thursday is World Book Day. In order to celebrate this, we are inviting the children to take part in an exciting competition. We would like the children to design a new book cover for their favourite book. Once they have completed their book cover, we ask that the children give these to their class teacher and they will then be passed onto the judging panel! All entries need to be submitted by Friday 3rd March. Winners will be announced after this and prizes given.
During the day, an author will also visit us.
On Friday, should your child wish to come dressed as a book character to celebrate World Book Day this will be optional. If you child does not want to dress up they will need to come to school in uniform.
Strike Action
As I am sure you are aware NEU members are being asked to strike again on Thursday 2nd March. A letter regarding this will be coming out tomorrow (Monday). Please bear with me.
