PTA May Fayre Please remember the PTA May Fayre will be taking place tomorrow Thursday 26th May from 3.30 –6.00pm. Children will be dismissed from the FRONT of the school (look out for signs telling you which door) 5 minutes early on that day, so that the playground is all set up for the start time of 3.30pm for our afternoon of excitement! Helpers are still needed. The PTA Committee will be selling a limited number of tickets which will be sold on a 1st come, 1st served basis, before and after school in the playground. The tickets are £1.00 each. They will also have Games tokens on sale at 50p each. Please note that all children must be accompanied by an adult, except Year 6 children who are helping to man some stalls. Children will not be allowed in on their own.

Transition Meeting All year 5 parents are invited to a Transition meeting on Wednesday 8th June from 9am – 10am in the school hall. This is a crucial meeting offering parents support and guidance around the Secondary school application process for their child once they move up into year 6. Parents will have the chance to meet the head of year 7 from Valentines Secondary School as well as the LBR travel team and can pick up some freebies. Please ensure that you attend this very important meeting as the application deadline is fast approaching.

Dr Bike Session - Dr Bike will be coming in again on Wednesday 8th June from 9am-12pm. Letters will go out to those children who brought their bikes but were not able to be seen last Friday.

Warm Weather Please make sure that during the warm weather your children wear sunhats and have sun cream applied before coming to school. They may also bring water bottles and should shelter in the shade regularly.

Lost property A pair of glasses belonging to one of our pupils has been lost. The glasses are black with the brand name Bench written along the side.
