Campsbourne Newsletter

Dear Parents / Carers,

It has been another warm week and the good weather is set to stay for a few more days yet. During periods of extreme weather it is important that we enjoy the heat in the right way. Please continue to provide your child with a water bottle and a sun hat. It is also very important that sunscreen is applied before they come to school. We are doing everything we can as a school to keep the children cool and hydrated through the day. It was lovely to see so many people at the summer fair last week despite the extreme heat. The fantastic work of the HSA ensured that there was a lot to do for everyone. Just over £5000 was raised which was incredible so thank you to everyone who attended. We look forward to next year’s Summer Fair. Sports Day takes place next week on Friday 4th July on the outfield of Alexandra Park Cricket Club. I have been instructed by the secretary of the club that the wicket area must be kept clear at all times. Please remember to remain in the cordoned off designated area for parents and carers for the duration of the event. We look forward to welcoming many of you to one of the highlights of the school year.
