Half Term news.
Fri 28 May 2021Dear Parents
We are delighted that we have managed to reach half term without any positive cases of covid in school. This means that the children have had over 6 weeks of uninterrupted learning. The children have thoroughly enjoyed being back to normal routines, learning and spending social times with their friends. Many of them are now ready for a half term break to recharge their batteries. I hope that you received your box of bagels or cereals that were kindly provided by The Magic breakfast Club. Those entitled to a free school meals voucher have also received those. We look forward to seeing everyone back in school on Monday 7th June for another 6 weeks of learning and hopefully some sunshine too!

Important information about P.E. kits
Mon 17 May 2021Dear Parents
Please read the very important information below about P.E. kit.
We recently sent a message home saying that on P.E. days the children could come to school in their kit. This increases the amount of time for physical activity and supports those older children that are beginning to become self conscious about changing in front of their peers.
This kit must be as follows:
Plain black shorts or joggers - not leggings - they are not appropriate for P.E as they are too thin and revealing.
A plain red T shirt
Black trainers
Their normal school sweatshirt - not a hoody or a tracksuit top.
If you do not have the items above children should come to school in their normal uniform and change into their P.E. clothes before the P.E. lesson.
At the moment too many children are not following rules, coming into school in branded tracksuits, hoodies and colourful trainers. This means that school looks like a non uniform day every day and attitudes in class are slipping.
We MUST and will uphold our standards. School is a place of learning not a place for high end sports fashion.
Please support us and make sure that your child has the correct P.E. kit or comes to school in their normal uniform every day and gets changed before the P.E. lesson.
If children continue to come into school in inappropriate clothing for P.E. we will stop the system and go back to all children having to change in school before the lesson.
Thank you.
