If you would like to drop food off with us, you are able to do this at any point during the morning on Thursday. Please try and do this before 12pm so we know how much we have and we can begin to organise it for each class.
If you are coming to help out and spend the afternoon in school with the children, please arrive between 1.15 - 1.30pm.

Visit to Cleethorpes tomorrow - Rose, Tulip, Bluebell, Poppy & Snowdrop Classes
Tue 17 Jun 2025We are all very excited about our visit to Cleethorpes tomorrow! Please ensure children come dressed for the warm weather - they DO NOT need to wear uniform. Please send them in a thin t-shirt and shorts, and they need to wear trainers as there will be walking to the pier and down to the beach. Please ensure you have put sun lotion on your child and that they wear a sun hat.
Children also need to bring a small rucksack (which they need to carry themselves) with a towel and a small bucket and spade for them to use on the beach.
Packed lunches have now all been ordered and prepped by school. If you ordered a school packed lunch, DO NOT bring a packed lunch from home as we do not want to waste the food we have bought in school. If you did not order a packed lunch, please ensure your child brings a packed lunch from home.
Thank you for your continued support. It's going to be an amazing day!

Welcome back!
Mon 02 Jun 2025Welcome 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.

Sports Day 2025
Tue 20 May 2025Following on from our newsletter shared yesterday, we apologise that we did not add the upcoming Sports Day date onto this. Sports Day will be happening on Wednesday 2nd July in the morning.
All children will be placed in a Sitwell Superhero team and will need to wear a specific colour t-shirt for this day. Children come to school dressed in their PE kits. We will send out further information shortly.
Thank you. -
Behaviour of older children on school property
Sun 18 May 2025We are growing increasingly concerned about the behaviour of older children when they come onto school property at the beginning or end of the school day. Over the past few weeks, class teachers have had to speak to several children about using our equipment. Scooters and bikes should not be ridden on school property either.
Please ensure that you do not allow your children to play on the school equipment during this time - it is NOT permitted. Parents are responsible for the behaviour and safety of their children whilst on school grounds. Please ensure you remind your children of our expectations.
Thank you for your continued support.

Wraparound Care @ Sitwell Infant School

We are offering a FREE taster session for any children not yet accessing our Breakfast Club or Tea Club provision. If you would like your child to attend and find out more about this provision, please get in touch with the school office with the specific date you would like your child to attend on. We will then set this up for you free of charge.
Thank you for your continued support.
