Cookery Room Our new cookery room is now complete- exciting news! We will now be able to hold regular cookery sessions as part of the curriculum.
Holidays during Term Time The number of children being taken out of school for holidays during term time is too high. Can I remind you that Cranbrook is becoming oversubscribed and any child who misses more than 10 consecutive days will be taken off roll. We will soon be introducing punctuality fines for parents who fail to bring their child to school or pick them up at the end of the school day on time.
Office Closure Please note that the School Office is closed from 10.00 to 11.00am and 1.30 to 2.30pm to enable all office staff have their required breaks. Please could you help by sending in any money in labelled envelopes with your child rather than queuing up each day to pay it into the office.
Lost Property Please collect any lost property from the small hall after school.
Attendance Please keep up the good work on attendance but we are noticing that a lot of children have been arriving late on a regular basis which gives an interrupted start to their school day.
