Weekly reminders for week beginning 6th July 2026

Well last week was another very busy week at Clockhouse - just the way we like it and this week is just the same as we get closer to the end of the year! 

Thank you to the parents and families who joined us on the last week for the Celebration Assemblies of Peru, Argentina, Scotland and Wales, we are sure you will agree they were a lovely occasion and we look forward to seeing more of you at these events during the term. Thank you also for your support with Enterprise Day and the Sponsored Walk, it really is so appreciated.

We are looking forward to seeing many of you there: 

Wednesday 8th July - Brazil (9.10am) Key Stage 2 Hall

We look forward to welcoming you to school to celebrate with your children.

School Reports

Please be aware that your child's annual school report will be coming out via Dojo after school on Monday. If you would like a paper copy please do let teachers or the office know. For those in Reception, Year 1 and some of Year 2 -  your child will also come home with an envelope with the statutory tests results in them.

Should you wish to discuss your child’s report with myself or the class teacher, arrangements for this will be communicated with you before the end of term or can happen on 13th July at Open Evening.

Year 6 results will be coming after they are received (7th July) and then checked. We will get these out to you as soon as we can.

Ice Lollies with the Head

As you all know we are constantly striving to improve Clockhouse for your children. 

This year we are 'Relentless and Rigorous' in everything we do to ensure that our school is a fabulous place to be and the children get the best all round experience possible. Each week, the Heads of Year as well as Miss Ward, Mrs Abeledo and Mrs Savidge choose a person (child or adult) who has been seen to do this and then they get to have Hot Chocolate with Mrs Savidge!

This week the following Clockhouse Citizens have been seen to be 'Relentless and Rigorous':

Year 4 - Alex B (Uganda) for always being rigorous and relentless and trying his hardest in class. I have seen a big improvement in his writing and wanting to work independently.  
Year 5 - Riley F (Japan) for always being relentless and rigorous in his learning both at school and at home.
Year 6 - Noah B (Australia) for being relentless and rigorous and stepping out of his comfort zone. He embraced all activities whilst in Brighton.
