Dear Parents / Carers,
This week we kick started with our new Forest School program in Alexander Palace! Year 5 and Reception will be taking part this term and they began their adventures building bridges, exploring the mud kitchen, climbing trees, drawing the intricates of the surrounding flora and generally having a fabulous time whilst learning all about the area. The children were superstars walking to and from the Palace and we were particularly impressed with the Reception children, considering the length of the walk! We look forward to hearing more about their adventures in the coming weeks.
Some friendly reminders!
Please can I remind parents that the children’s snack at breaktimes should be a healthy choice. Crisps and chocolate biscuits are not allowed and these will be taken away from the children if spotted by a member of staff and given back to them at the end of the day. Please can you also remind your child not to share food with other children due to potential allergies. Many thanks.
Please can I remind you that our office email address is admin@campsbourne.haringey.sch.uk and the previous email address you may have used, is no longer active.
Latest from the HSA
Comedy Night:
Last night’s comedy night was an absolute RIOT! The comedians were on top form and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house…from all the laughter! A massive thank you to everyone who came along and enjoyed a delicious homemade curry with all the trimmings and a truly unforgettable evening of comedy. We managed to raise £902.11 for the HSA which is just incredible. We know adult-only events only happen once a year at Campsbourne, so we’re so glad to have shared this special comedy evening with so many members of the Campsbourne community! We can’t wait to see you all next year!
