Please make every effort to ensure your child attends school punctually and regularly.

Car Park I am increasingly concerned regarding the despicable behaviour and dangerous parking of some parents. Just this morning, a car whose registration is LN10 ZWD drove in the car park the wrong way, over a curb breaking a plant and squashing a bollard! I would urge those guilty of this to show more consideration in future.

Holidays during term time In line with school and local authority policy please note I will not be authorising any holidays, and you will be fined if you decide to go ahead.

Applications for Reception 2012 For parents applying for a place in Reception 2012 a system has been set up so that parents are able to complete their applications using the online eAdmissions system. The system is very quick and easy to use. The link to the eAdmissions page on Redbridge-i—www.redbridge.gov.uk/eadmissions.

School Meal Price Increase Please note that with effect from 3rd January 2012, school dinners will cost £1.99. Please make sure you send in dinner money in advance and in an envelope (not loose) marked clearly with your child's name and class.
No Money = No School Dinner ISS, the catering company will no longer provide a dinner for children whose parents are in arrears. PLEASE ensure you pay in advance, so that we don’t have children going hungry.

Christmas Parties Party clothes can be worn to school on the day of your child’s Christmas party. If children wish to bring in party food, please send in 1 carton of drink, 1 packet of crisps and 1 other item ONLY, in a bag labelled with your child’s name and class.
