Let your light shine through family, friendship and faith
“Enabling our whole school community to flourish and let their light shine, preparing them for their role as gentle and humble agents for change in the world we share.”
Fathers Day Breakfast Friday 14th June
This will take place at 9am in the hall this Friday.
Sports Day
We have decided to attempt our Sports Day again on Thursday 27th June. If that fails we will have one final attempt on Friday 5th July.
Clubs
Clubs running this half term will include Book Club on Fridays for years 1-4 and the Performing Arts Club will continue on Wednesdays for Early Years. Both clubs will run up to and including week ending Friday 12th July.
Some of you will have been asked at our Records of Achievement afternoon about clubs you would like us to run, and we will consult with you further this week before deciding what clubs to run in the autumn term.
Booking on to these clubs will open at 4pm today.
Appointments
We do appreciate how difficult it is to get medical appointments outside of school hours but please try to do this wherever possible. Thank you.
Parking
A reminder to always park with care and courtesy near school and not to use the school car park. The car park is for staff only and is narrow and very hazardous, particularly at busy times. Thank you for your co-operation.
Regards,
Mr J Gordon
