We are celebrating our school being 150 years old and would love you to join us.

If you have any items that would be suitable for a tombola we would be grateful for any donations.

Here are the term dates for the entire year - obviously some will be added as the year progresses and we will highlight these in red.

Long-term dates will normally be in our monthly newsletter rather than the weekly bulletin but have been added due to this being a new year.

Weeks beginning:

14th Sept, 5th Oct

As a school, we want to encourage high attendance as we know the positive impact this has on children not just academically but socially too. Many schools give out rewards for 100% attendance but this is not something we do. We appreciate that children can be ill and do not want to discourage those who always attend when they can. We are parents ourselves and can appreciate the battles that sometimes occur in a morning trying to get your child to school when they are not feeling it that day so do want to try to help with this.

We do not want to penalise children for being off but want something that we can all aim for to encourage high attendance. As a team, we have decided that we will trial a new approach this summer term. For every 50 sessions that your child attends they will earn some form of reward. The first one will be non-uniform for the day, which is always popular. This means if your child is ill they do not miss out, all children will achieve this when they have earnt 50 sessions. We hope that if for example your child is on 45 sessions it might encourage them to attend to reach their 50.

We will share resources each week but also see our monthly newsletter for a collection of these resources that have been sent previously.
