Weekly reminders for week beginning 7th October 2024

It is hard to believe that we are already a week into October - where is the time going! 

Thank you to all of those who showed their support for the school on Thursday by having a school dinner! 

World Mental Health Day

On Thursday we will be supporting World Mental Health Day. This is a charity close to the school's heart and we ask that the children come to school in non-uniform including something yellow - this can be a small as a hair clip, a pattern on socks etc. to show their support. If you wish to donate this will also be gratefully received. PE will continue as normal. 

Sport

Good luck to the Year 5 and 6 Cross Country Team who take part in a Borough Competition on Wednesday.

School Closure

Please do not forget that Friday 25th October is a staff training day and therefore the school will be closed to children.

Things to be aware of

Open Evening is coming up (23rd and 24th October), as per the letters sent last week, please ensure you are booking appointments in with teachers. 

We finish for half term at the end of the day on Thursday 24th October. We return to school on Monday 4th November.
