Newsletter No.38 9th July 2014


Staffing Update I am pleased to welcome Chloe back from maternity leave. Chloe has returned on a part time basis and will cover classes and provide specialist Dance teaching across the school.
 
Sad Farewells We will be sorry to see Jo Biggs and Kate Hill leave the school to take up new avenues in their career. We will also be waving ‘au revoir’ to Harman, who will be taking up a teaching position in Mexico; and to Ian and John, who are joining an international school in Hong Kong. Finally, we will also be losing Paven, one of our Assistant Headteachers, who will be taking on a full-time role as Deputy Headteacher at John Bramston Primary School in Redbridge from September 2014.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank these staff for their hard work and their valuable contribution to Cranbrook. They will all be missed! 
To replace them we welcome the following new teachers: Jacob, Michael R, Sofia, Dia, Rehana and Sukhraj. Please see overleaf the arrangements for class teachers for September 2014.  
 
Last Day of Term on Wednesday 23rd July Parents please note that Year 6 will finish at 12pm and the remainder of the school will finish at 2pm. Please ensure that you have made arrangements for the early closure.
 
End of Year Reports All reports will be sent out on Friday 11th July. Please ensure that you read them and if there is anything you wish to follow up with the class teacher, I would ask that you make direct contact with him/her. Reply slips should be completed and returned to the class teacher by Wednesday 16th July.
 
Strike– School Closure on Thursday 10th July 2014 The school will be closed tomorrow, due to the high number of staff on strike over pay for public sector workers.
