What a fantastic couple of days we had back at school last week - well done to our fantastic Clockhouse community!
It was absolutely lovely to welcome all the children from Year 1 through to Year 6 back to school last week as well as welcoming new staff and children along with their families. We were all pleased to see everyone and the children seemed to settle quickly, we are all looking forward to an action packed and exciting year ahead.
If they have not come home already, Home / School Learning Diaries will be coming home early next week. Please ensure that the children bring these to school with them everyday and that you sign them and add any comments. A letter will be coming out in the near future about changes to the reading reward initiatives we have although we are sure your children will tell you about these.
Last week, some children did not have all the equipment they require - particularly full P.E. kits, water bottles, etc. Please ensure P.E. kits are in school and that earrings are removed. Please can we also remind you of the importance of full school uniform and that this, along with coats are clearly named.
