New Website Launch We are very pleased to launch our new website which has now gone live. The website offers information about various aspects of school life. Although in its infant stage we are continually developing the website further to enhance communication between home and school and provide useful links for you to access at home.
Parents Evening It was great to see such a high turnout and engage in many positive discussions with parents. We continue to value your feedback and were thrilled to hear how well the recent homework projects have gone. It is also pleasing to hear that since the introduction of the reading scheme and regular phonics lessons, parents and teachers have seen an improvement in reading standards.

Late Collection of Children During the week of 14th March to 18th March, a total of 68 children were collected as late as 4.00pm at the end of the school day. If your child is collected late, you must ensure you sign them out in the late book as the main office. Over the following weeks we will be closely monitoring this situation. Persistent lateness in collecting your child from school may result in a referral to the Education Welfare Services.
Dress-Up Day for Book Week This Friday (25th March) is Dress Up Day as your favourite book character, which coincides with our Book Week activities which the children have been enjoying in class. If you’re not able to dress up, then bring in some props or something relating to your favourite book/character.
Year 2 Trip This week year 2 went on a school trip to the Natural History Museum. They got to see moving dinosaurs, lots of animals and especially liked looking at rainforest creatures. The children had lots of fun and bought some exciting things from the gift shop
Eggciting News Our first Cranbrook chicks have hatched! Six eggs have successfully hatched and the Reception children have been busy taking care of them. The chicks have provided an amazing experience for the children (and staff!) and invaluable learning opportunities.
Packed Lunches We are having an increasing amount of packed lunches being dropped off during the course of the morning, please remember to give your child their packed lunch at the beginning of the day so that your children have their lunch at their allocated time.
Cranbrook Chronicle Caroline and Ian would like to thank all who supported the school by buying a copy of ‘The Cranbrook Chronicle’ produced by Year 5 pupils. The total amount raised for our vegetable garden was just over £130 which is much appreciated.
