Welcome back!

We hope all our children and families have had a wonderful half term holiday. We are very much looking forward to welcoming everyone back to school tomorrow for the final half term of the year! Thank you to everyone who has shared learning and experiences on Google Classroom this week. We have loved seeing what you have been getting up to! Every class will be holding a Google class news time this week so make sure to share! 

 

Please see below some key reminders for the coming week so you are well prepared: 

 

Eid celebrations

We know that many of our families will be celebrating Eid on Friday 6th June. This day is an authorised absence, but only if families let us know that this is the reason for the absence. Please either ring or email school to inform us that your child's absence on this day is for the Eid celebration. We can then authorise this. Just a polite reminder that children can only have one day's authorised leave and anything other than this will be unauthorised.

 

School Lunches

Please ensure you have ordered your child's lunches for the week if they require a lunch provided by school. This must be done before 8am each day on Parent Pay so it is much easier to order a week or multiple weeks in advance rather than ordering each day. PLEASE NOTE THAT SCHOOL LUNCHES NEED TO BE ORDERED VIA PARENT PAY AND NOT ARBOR. 

 

PE kit

All children's PE kits need to be brought back into school tomorrow as we will be beginning our new PE lessons this week with Live & Learn. Please ensure your child has a pair of leggings/jogging bottoms in their PE bag as well as we may complete PE lessons outside sometimes. The hoodies that have been provided by school must be included in their PE kit bag (if they were taken home), and not worn to school as a jumper.

 

School Uniform

Please ensure you have labelled your child's uniform clearly so that if it is misplaced, we can easily find it. We had a lot of uniform lost last half term where there were no names in. 

 

After School Clubs

As shared before the holidays, all club places have now been allocated and will begin this week. Please ensure payment has been made or the place will be offered to the next on the waiting list. 

 

Wraparound Care

Thank you to those of you who have signed up for Breakfast Club and Tea Club places. As a reminder, all sessions must be paid for in advance and for safeguarding reasons, children are not able to just turn up on the day. Please ensure you have booked and paid for your places via the Arbor App. Don't forget - we are offering a free session at either club if you want your child to try this for free. Just get in touch with reception and we can organise this for you.

 

School reopens at the normal time tomorrow morning. We look forward to seeing you all! 

 

Thank you for your continued support.
