Sports Day Rescheduled to Wednesday 10th July Thank you to all parents who understood that for safety reasons we have had to postpone Sports Day. The weather  forecast from next week is excellent. Roll on the sunshine!

We would like to invite parents to Sports Day for Reception classes on Friday 19th July from 9.15am-11am. This will take place on the school field. Nursery will have their Sports Day in the school hall on Friday 12th July at 9.15am and 1pm.
Attendance Well done to class 5Y who achieved 99.3% attendance! The overall percentage for the whole school was 95.4%. Fantastic! Let’s keep this up.                                             

Parent Survey Once again, I would ask all parents to provide us with feedback on what the school does well and where we need to improve. We are also carrying out surveys of the pupil and staff views, so that we can agree our priorities for 2013 and plan towards our journey to outstanding. The survey accompanies this newsletter and should be returned by 12th July.

End of Year Reports Please note reports will be sent home with your child on Friday 12th July.

Open School/Meet New Classteacher Parents/Carers are invited to come into school on Tuesday 16th July from 3.30-4.15pm to view your child’s books, class work and to have the opportunity to meet your child’s new classteacher for September. The new teacher will be available in the new classroom.
Lost Property We have a huge number of good quality clothing items in our lost property tubs. They will be placed outside the small hall daily at the end of each day. Please have a look and claim lost items. If anything is left at the end of term, it will be given to charity shops.

Medicines and Asthma Pumps Would parents/carers please check the expiry date on any medicines and/or asthma pumps that we have in school. Any that have expired should be discarded and arrangements should be made for new ones to be brought into school for September.

Uniform Please ensure your child continues to come to school in uniform daily.
