Weekly reminders for the week beginning 23rd March 2026

Well, it is almost impossible to believe that we are in the final week of the Spring term and at the end of another successful term at Clockhouse. As always we thank you for your unreserved support in all that we do. I am sure you are ready for the holiday and a good break come Thursday.

Well done to everyone for trying so hard with OCAttendance - keep going. Keep a look out as I believe there may be a surprise visitor this week!

Easter Bonnet Parade

The annual Easter Bonnet Parade is definitely a Clockhouse tradition for Reception and Nursery. We look forward to welcoming Reception families on Wednesday. Bonnets at the ready!

Year 1

The Year 1 children are off to the Church on Monday morning. Please ensure that consent forms are returned by Monday at the latest if you have not done so already.

Year 4

The Year 4 children are off to The Barbican on Monday. Please ensure that consent forms and money are returned by Monday at the latest if you have not done so already.

Year 6 

Year 6 will continue with their final round Mock SATs test this week, please do support them and make sure they get plenty of rest so that they can do their best. This is to help the children prepare for their tests in May as well as to help to inform learning and teaching.

Parents' Evening 

Do not forget that on Monday and Tuesday (Year 6) / Tuesday and Thursday (Nursery - Year 5) of this week it is Parents' Evening after school. It is not too late to book an appointment if you have not done so already. Please use the link on School Story or ask Mrs Collins in the office, whi will be able to help you. As you know, we are offering a blended approach, so if you have not done so already, please do tell the teachers if you want a Zoom or face to face meeting.

Please do allow your children to be part of the meeting so that they also know how they are doing and what they need to work on. The importance of the co-education of your child cannot be overstated
