Bronze for our Kurlers!

Online Safety Guidance for Parents
Parent Zone was founded in 2008 to make a difference by improving outcomes for children in an increasingly digital world. They provide support for parents and families around digital family life. The following link takes you to their parent guide page where they have a wide range of guides for specific platforms which your child/ren may be using and a whole host more. I hope you find the useful https://parentzone.org.uk/guides
New Entrance for Breakfast Club
Due to the ongoing issues parents are experiencing trying to access the Breakfast Club using the main entrance we have taken the decision to move Breakfast Club to the Infant building where After School Club is based. Parents will therefore need to drop their children off at the nursery entrance from Monday 29th February.
Read all about it!
We would like to take the opportunity to say a huge thank you to the HSA and our parental connections at Bloomsbury, who have donated a large number of new books for our library. They range from fiction to non-fiction and were chosen according to the children’s interests, as asked by them. In a number of cases there is more than one copy of each book, as we know once recommendations start flowing, there’s always a rush! We are so grateful and hope that the children will enjoy the new texts.
During the month of February, we will be hosting a sponsored Readathon! More information will be sent home next week with the children but they will have the opportunity to track their reading mileage everyday and try to get as much sponsorship as possible to raise funds for our fabulous HSA and the school. The children can borrow books from the library, including our new ones. Look out for more information next week!
