Welcome Back I would like to welcome you all back and hope you had a good Easter break and Baisakhi celebrations and are now looking forward to the term ahead.
Year 6 SATs These will be taking place the week beginning Monday 9th May. Please ensure that all Year 6 pupils are in school throughout this week. A timetable of test arrangements and information will be sent out to all Year 6 parents for information.
Attendance The class with the highest percentage is Year 6 Red with 98.6%, narrowly beating Year 2 Yellow with 98%! Well done to both classes! The overall percentage for the whole school was 93.3%, which is still below the national expectation of 95%.
Percentages for other classes were as follows:
R Blue 92% R Green 92.4% R Red 82.7% R Yellow 92%
Yr 1 Blue 88% Yr 1 Green 96.7% Yr1 Red 96% Yr 1 Yellow 90.3%
Yr 2 Blue 93.3% Yr 2 Green 94.3% Yr 2 Red 94.7% Yr 2 Yellow 98%

Yr 6 Red 98.6 %
IF YOUR CHILD’S CLASS PERCENTAGE IS BELOW IS 95%, PLEASE MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO ENSURE HE/SHE ATTENDS REGULARLY. POOR ATTENDANCE = POOR PROGRESS = POOR SELF ESTEEM
Unauthorised Holidays and Fines Please note that any absences between 26th April and 28th April will not be authorised unless we are in receipt of medical evidence.
New Fencing By now you will have noticed the new fencing that has recently been erected in the playground. This is to enable us to create a quiet area for activities at play and lunchtimes as well as to ensure a safe and secure handover of the children to parents at the end of the school day, when it is extremely busy.
Staffing Update Welcome to Sam Patel, Year 5 Group leader, Joyce in Year 2, Saima who will be supporting and covering classes across the school, Schweta who has returned from maternity leave and Tahera who has joined Nursery.
Cookery Room I am pleased to report that we have furnished a room on the middle floor as a Cookery and Parents room, which will be available for use by all classes and PTA events.
Breakfast and After School Clubs These clubs will now be held in the new location of the Small Hall where new facilities have been fitted. If you are interested in using this childcare provision, please contact the school office for information on costs.
Open School As usual, I would like to invite all parents and carers to walk through the school and look at your child’s class books on Wednesday 4th May between 3.30 and 4.15pm. Please note that this is an opportunity for the children to show their books to their parents, rather than a meeting with the class teacher.
Non-uniform Day In celebration of the historic events that have and will be taking place, i.e. St George’s Day (23rd April) and the Royal Wedding, all children are invited to come into school tomorrow (Thursday 28th April) dressed as Princes or Princesses, Brides or Grooms or any character relating to the Wedding Party. We look forward to seeing you all.
