I have sent home the following questionnaire and would be grateful if you could complete it and return it tomorrow. Thank you.

I am sure all of you are aware of the statement from the Prime Minister regarding schools yesterday evening. We will await further clarity from our Local Authority over the next steps and will communicate further during the day. 

Teachers have prepared work for each year group on the school website under the 'Parents' tab and will continue to add to those pages over the coming weeks. We have also produced hard copies of additional work which will be sent home today.

School is CLOSED today due to bad weather conditions.

Due to the caretaker and key holder being unable to get into school we are unable to answer the phone or respond to messages. School will be open as normal tomorrow (Tuesday 24th February)

I hope that you all enjoyed our recent Science Fair. I thought that our Science Ambassadors did a tremendous job explaining their experiments to children and parents alike. It was so nice to be able to demonstrate the amazing Science that goes on in our school and by showcasing Early Years, Primary, Secondary, University and GSK (employers)in our school. Thank you to Dr Greenwell for organising this.

We try to give children and parents good advice about online safety. As we approach the half term break, here is a reminder about the importance of being aware of the types of apps and games your children are accessing.

I hope that you all enjoyed the MacMillan Coffee Afternoon on Friday. It certainly was a great turnout! I thought that the stalls created by the staff were fantastic and I know that the children learnt new skills as they baked copious amounts of cakes and treats in class. We raised around £500 for MacMillan which is superb – I will let you know the exact figure in Friday’s newsletter. Thank you and well done everyone!
