Dear Parent / Carers,
Key Stage 2 Christmas Show
Thank you for your patience and understanding regarding the Key Stage 2 Christmas Shows. We have never had this level of interest in previous years so we have been caught on the hop and are doing our best to ensure that as many parents as possible can attend.
I am very sorry if you do not have a ticket but I am at my maximum capacity for both shows now and do not have any tickets left. The office staff and the rest of us our doing our best but we have strict health and safety guidelines which we have to follow so we can’t just squeeze one more in.
I will meet with Jeannie in the new year and develop a plan for next year so that we can ensure that every child in key stage 2 is guaranteed a spot for at least one parent.
Final Day of Term
Don’t forget that school closes at 1.45pm on the final day of term which is Friday 16th December. There is no after school provision on this day.
Class Rep Meeting Change of Date
Please note that I have had to move my class rep meeting for class reps from the junior school from Wednesday 1st March to Wednesday 8th March.

The children have been enjoying the sport of hockey in the MUGA at lunchtimes for this half-term. Despite reservations at first it has been lovely to see the numbers increase over the weeks with many more girls joining in and boys who didn’t normally join......
This week the children across the school had the opportunity to meet Father Bruce, a priest from our local Baptist Church. All of the children heard Father Bruce’s views on their big questions, such as ‘Is the Christmas story true?’ ‘Has Christmas lost it’s true......
