Dear parents and carers,

Thank you for all your support during such an exciting week at Larks Hill. The pupils have experienced educational visits to support their learning, taken part in sporting events in and out of school, and performed in front of audiences displaying their musical and theatrical skills.

On Tuesday morning, our WMS music students performed to their families and fellow students showcasing their musical talents. The children all put on a great performance on a variety of different instruments showed everyone how much progress they have made this year.

On Tuesday morning, Year 5 were kindly invited to watch Carleton High's end-of-year production of We Will Rock You. It was a fabulous performance that showcased an incredible amount of talent, and we were delighted to spot some former Larks Hill pupils among the cast!

The children were captivated by the singing, dancing and acting, and thoroughly enjoyed joining in with the songs by clapping and singing along. The performance was especially inspirational, as it took place just a few hours before our own Drama Club performance.

A huge thank you to Carleton High for the invitation. We look forward to attending more events in the future!

Gardening club have harvested some of their onion and garlic crops this week.

You are of course more than welcome to take photos of your own children during events such as sports days, concerts and performances however please ensure that you avoid taking pictures where other children appear in the background wherever possible. If other children are in the background of the pictures you take, you must crop them out or redact their image before sharing with family or friends or on social media.

Thank you for your understanding and efforts in keeping all of our children safe.

We will be opening the gates at the bottom of the school field (not the usual gates by the office) and Children can be collected from 2pm from their classroom doors where they will be signed out by their teacher. Children that aren’t collected at 2pm will stay with members of staff and have the opportunity to look around and take part in the fair. Children in Year’s 5 & 6 who usually walk home by themselves, can attend the fair by themselves however they cannot leave school until 3.15pm unless accompanied by an adult. If an adult who doesn’t usually collect your child will be collecting them on this day, please let us know.

Thank you again for your attendance and support at the events this week. Next week, we look forward to the Summer Fayre on Tuesday, as well as the Year 6 production and Year 3 guitar performance.

Yours sincerely,
Mr Beevers

Next week we will be on Week 1 of the Summer menu.

EITs will be available over the summer to take calls from parents and carers who may have concerns regarding their child / young person's return to school in September. The telephone helpline can support parent / carer worries in relation to attendance, behaviour, anxiety, SEND or transition. Please share the flyer attached with any parents / carers you feel may find this service helpful.

Please see below information regarding upcoming workshops in June & July. If you would like to book, please use the QR codes on the flyers.

Please find attached promotional materials for parents/carers for the summer HHH events. Following the QR code to book onto the sessions.

Due to a recent increase in demand for our Wraparound After School club, we have taken the decision to increase our capacity from 15 to 18 children per day. We hope this will help out those families that need childcare either on a regular or ad hoc basis.

If you haven’t used our Wraparound After School Club before, please drop in to the office to sign the agreement form.

The Club runs from 3.15pm-5.45pm Monday-Thursday and costs £12 per session (or £10 each for siblings).

Children can take part in games, activities, crafts and more! We also offer a selection of snacks and light bites for them to enjoy.

From next week we will also be launching our new Friday offer! Friday club will run as the rest of the week but at a discounted price of £8 for the full session, or £5 for a 4.30pm pick-up. This could be an opportunity for parents to get ready for the weekend, do some shopping or run any errands that need doing without the children there.

Places should be booked on MCAS by Friday of the preceding week, please give us a call if you need to book after this deadline and we will see what we can do.
