The Bonneville Buzz
September 2023
In this final Buzz of the academic year, I will share some updates and events from when I last wrote to you.
In a fantastic turn of events, Ms Innes (current Reception class teacher) will no longer leave us this term. Instead, she will continue with us as a year 3 class teacher in September.
Thank you to everyone for your patience and flexibility when we have had to change the dates of key events. We appreciate you accommodating some last-minute challenges, including the weather for the years 5 and 6 Sports Day.
Last week, we celebrated the arrival of our new staff members on a warm and welcoming handover day. We welcome Mariesa Ford, Sesi Thomas, Tanesha Edwards, and Louie Da Costa into our Bonneville family.
Thank you, Tina and the catering team, for keeping us all fed throughout the year. You are a big part of the team here at Bonneville. Your consistent presence means you know our children well and help us provide them with what they need to thrive. We appreciate you.
To mark this phenomenal year, we unveiled our new 'Outstanding' banner to the community. We share this moment with great pride and hang our achievements for the world to see!
By now, you should have received a welcome letter from your new teaching team for September. Please familiarise yourself with the routines for the next academic year and get in touch with your child/ren's class teacher at the beginning of the year if you have any concerns.
For those leaving us, I wish you all the best.
For those joining us or returning, I will see you at the gate no later than 8:59 a.m. on Tuesday, September 3rd.
Keep safe!
From their production of 'Pirates of the Curry Bean' and the prom to the leavers' assembly, it has been an absolute blast celebrating your time at Bonneville with you.
Congratulations on graduating from primary school with such finesse!
You all worked incredibly hard and achieved outstanding results, so it's only right that we partied hard, too!
We will certainly miss you!
Raising a Concern
It is important to us that any concerns or questions you may have are dealt with as efficiently as possible. The structure we have in place is designed to do just that.
The structure
1) Your first port of call is -Your child’s class teacher
(email via the admin team to request a meeting)
2) You may contact the leader of your child’s phase (see below)
This includes issues regarding communication and organisation
(email via the admin team to request a meeting)
Should you be dissatisfied with the handling or outcome...
3) You may raise your concerns with Ms Parker
(email via the admin team to request a meeting outlining the nature for the purpose of the meeting)
Leaders are required to share items (as appropriate) with Ms Parker on a weekly basis, even if the matter is being handled by them.
We request that you do not field your concerns to FAB but instead work directly with the school staff as outlined above.
FREE Lambeth Summer Cricket Opportunities- Urgent Response required
Please see the attached flyers for our summer programmes, which we are running across the borough. Due to the funding received, we are delighted to offer these spaces to your school free of charge. Below are the venues that we have running.
- Myatts Field Park
- Mawbey Estate
- Streatham Common
- Myatts Field North
- Brockwell Park
To register, click one of the links on the respective flyers and use the DISCOUNT PROMO CODE when booking your place. It is essential to keep this link private, as only a select number of places are available.
As you can see, we have two links for each session: one for boys and one for Girls. This allows us to keep track of numbers for funder reports. So that you know, the session will run as a mixed session.
Your school's participation is of great importance to us. It would be wonderful to see your students register and be a part of our summer programmes.
Thanks
