Year 4 visit Kew Gardens!

Year 4 had a great time when they finished Kew Gardens to support their learning all about the Rainforest.

They loved all that they saw and got to do some fabulous sketching as well.

All in all, a great day, with great behaviour from our fabulous Clockhouse Citizens.

Well done Year 4!

Thank you to everyone for trying hard with punctuality and respecting the slight change to arrangements. Thank you also to all those who have responded and gifted us items from the Amazon Wish List - we are so lucky to have you all.

After the busy week that we had last week, this week is just as busy!

Reception
We look forward to welcoming our Reception parents for Learn with my Child on Tuesday and Wednesday (please check with teachers if you are not sure which day you are due to come). As with the other year groups, regrettably we are unable to accommodate younger siblings at these events.

Year 1 and 2

As per the letter that was sent home last week, Year 1 and 2 will be taking part in a scooting / skateboarding experience on Monday.

Year 1

Year 1 are off to the Library on Wednesday or Friday. Please ensure permissions slips are returned by Tuesday if you have not done so already.

Year 5

We all hope that Year 5 have a fabulous time at Condover Hall. Please remember to meet your group leader in the canteen on Wednesday morning. The children will be departing at 10am promptly if you wish to wave them off. Updates about the trip will be on the school blog and dojo.

If your child is not going to Condover Hall, please ensure that the children come to school at normal time. 

Things to be aware of

Please remember that Monday 4th May is May Day and therefore the school will be closed. We will be back to normal on Tuesday 5th  May.
