WEEKLY BULLETIN Dear Parents and Carers,
Finding out about our school
It has been a really enjoyable week in school, as children have got back into their routines and into their new topics. We are very proud of how all of the children have settled into new classes, especially our new reception children and new starters in other year groups. It is amazing to see how confident they have all been. I would like to take this opportunity to remind all parents and carers that our uniform policy needs to be adhered by all pupils. As a reminder, pupils must wear: School sweatshirt or cardigan Plain grey straight leg school trouser or plain grey skirt Plain grey shorts are optional during the summer months Plain red or white polo shirt with collar Red, grey or black tights are permitted Socks must be grey or black Red school dress is optional during summer months Black leather or leather look, flat school shoes (no trainers)
Year 1 and 2 have spent their English and Topic lesson researching and discussing how our local area and school has changed over the years. We invited Mrs Short (school cleaner) in to school so she could share her knowledge. The pupils wrote questions which they then asked her about the local area. They all loved learning about how things have changed over the 20 years that Mrs Short has worked at the school. Pupils were fascinated to hear how there used to be curtains instead of doors between the classrooms and all about the newly built corridor connecting KS1 and KS2. A huge thank you to Mrs Short for helping us understand more about where we learn and the place we live.
Pupils must not wear jewellery except one small stud in each ear. Hair must be of natural colour and no extreme haircuts including lines are permitted. Thank you for your continued support.
Mrs Charlie Summers - Headteacher
