Non-Uniform Day Friday 24th October To celebrate Black History Month, children are   invited to come dressed as their favourite black ’hero’ or historical figure, such as Mary Seacole, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, Jessica Ennis and Bob Marley (just to name a few!). Please bring in a £1 donation. We are raising money to support a school in Africa.  
 
Parents Evening Please remember to send in your reply slip for Parents Evening so that teachers can allocate time slots.
 
Uniform/Jewellery As always I would ask for your support in ensuring that children follow the school’s uniform policy each day and that they wear no jewellery to school. No jewellery should be worn, other than for religious observance.
 
Sensible Shoes/Coats Now that autumn has truly set in, please ensure that your child brings a coat to school every day, even if you drive him/her to school as all children do go out for play and lunchtimes. Please also ensure that sensible shoes or trainers are worn to school.

Please remember, if you still want a paper copy of the newsletter, you may collect one from the school office. If you require a paper copy of your child’s homework, please request this from the class teacher in advance.

Also may I remind you that all dinner money from next half term needs to pay in advance, before your child has a school meal. Payments are £2 per day or £10 per week.
