Dear Parent/Carer School Dinners Dinner debts continue to rise despite our continued reminders for payments. Our school does not provide school dinners, it is an external company and as a result of this cumulative debt funds are being taken from an already stretched budget to cover this, meaning that all children in our school are affected. If contact with parents is not successful, this via a daily text message, phone call and/or letter then we will request you either provide your child with a packed lunch or collect them at lunch time. Payments for all school meals must be made at the start of a week via our online system. If you currently have outstanding payments please make sure that these are cleared. If you have concerns
or are having difficulties with paying please contact reception or the school office and we will do our best to help and support you.
Year 3 – Magna Over a couple of days last week all the year 3 children were taken on an educational visit to Magna. This links to the children’s work in the classroom ‘Meet me by the Steelmen’.
Student Council – Keeping us Safe The Student Council successfully made a bid for some parking buddies to help keep our children safe. They recently arrive and have taken pride of place along our school drive. Usually this section of road is covered in cars making it a hazard for other road users and pedestrians. Well done Student Council!
