Important Notice I am concerned that a number of pupils (some at Year 1) are being left to go into school from the main road on their own. For safety reasons please ensure that your child is accompanied all the way to school and that they go into school safely, especially if they are late as they need to be signed in by an adult. 
School Lunches—Online Payments with Cypad The school meals catering providers, ISS  Facility Services will soon be offering an online payment service. From 22nd June, in addition to paying for your child’s school meals by cash or cheque, you will also be able to pay online. Cypad is an online payment system which offers you the freedom to pay for your child’s meals by credit or debit card and to view your account balance. It is a straight forward, secure and easy system to use. Furthermore, once registered, you will be automatically reminded when your balance falls below falls below £5 to remind you to top up your account.
Cancellation of Clubs on 20th June Due to the Summer Fayre event, all after school activities are cancelled on 20th June 2013. Please note that the after school childcare club that runs until 5.30pm will be open as usual.

Non-Uniform Day Children are invited to come into school in non-uniform on Friday 14th June. Children can wear their own clothes and we will be asking for a small donation (per family) of items that can be used in the Summer Fayre. This may include a box of chocolates, bottles of soft drinks or raffle prizes.
Summer Fayre 20th June The date is fast approaching and we are hoping that the sunshine will come out for the Wild West Bonanza! As advised in last weeks newsletter, we will not be able to sell any further tickets at this stage as the weather is so unpredictable. If it rains, the event will take place inside, where a limit on numbers has to apply for health and safety reasons. Therefore, we will see what the weather forecast is closer to the date before selling more tickets. If it is sunny on 20th June, tickets will be available on the day. Tokens can be purchased in the playground before and after school at a cost of 50p each. These can be used on most stalls.
After School Activities On Monday 24th June the main school hall will be used for an event. If your child takes part in any of the after school activities, please note that following the session you will be able to collect your child from the school playground.

“What Does Your School Mean To You” Competition Calling all students! What does your school mean to you? Imagination and creativity? A safe place where friends are made and memories are created? Your school councillors are working on something very special and want you to tell them what Cranbrook Primary School means to you. You may choose to write your responses in a paragraph (no more than 100 words please) or draw a picture with a caption. You may choose to work on a response alone or with friends. It’s up to you! Just make sure you give your entry to your teacher by 4th July 2013.           
Transition Information Session For Year 5 Parents We would like to invite all of our Year 5 parents to our secondary school transition information session. This is a very important meeting which will take place on Wednesday 19th June from 9am - 10.30am. We will discuss the secondary school application process and how we at Cranbrook can support you. You will have the opportunity to meet the Heads of Year 7 from Valentines and Wanstead Secondary Schools. They will talk about life in secondary school and answer any questions that you may have. Refreshments will be available on the day. Please ensure that you attend this meeting.
CGP study books (English, Maths and Science) will also be available to purchase at this meeting.
Security Bike Marking Event The police will be carrying out security bike marking in the playground tomorrow. Please bring your child’s bike and leave it in the fenced off gym area with the form attached. Forms are available from the school office or will be given out in the morning.
 
Bikeability Training for Year 5 We are able to extend the Bikeability training during the week commencing 8th July to Year 5. Two instructors will work with groups of 8 children in the playground progressing onto the road. If your child will be aged 10 on 8th July, has a roadworthy helmet and is able to ride their bike, they will be eligible to take part. A letter was sent home on Monday and the deadline for returning forms is Friday 14th June. Don’t miss out—there are a limited number of places available!
 
Free Sky Ride Local Guided Rides The London Borough of Redbridge is working in partnership with British Cycling to offer free, fun, guided bike rides around the local area as part of the Sky Ride Local Programme between June and September 2013. Guided by friendly British Cycling Ride Leaders along scenic planned routes, they are a great way to get out and see the local area on two wheels. With different levels, there are rides for all abilities—whether you are building your confidence or already comfortable on a bike and looking for a challenge. There are off road family rides too! Redbridge is a great place to cycle and now there are even more opportunities for local residents and families to get out and about on their bike in the area. For all dates and times to register for a free Sky Ride Local Ride in Redbridge, please visit
