🌞 End-of-Term Newsletter for KRIII
July 2025

Dear Parents and Carers, Families and Friends,

As we come to the end of this school year, we want to say a big thank you to all of you for your support. It has been a brilliant year, full of learning, fun, and friendship. Your encouragement and care have helped your children to grow and shine – thank you for everything you do.

🎉 End of Term Celebrations

Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve been celebrating the wonderful year we’ve had! Children have enjoyed fun activities in class – singing, dancing, storytelling, creative play, and outdoor fun. We are so proud of how hard they have worked and how much they have learned.

👋 Goodbye and Good Luck

Some of our super pupils are getting ready to leave us and move on to new schools or settings. We will miss them very much, but we know they are ready for the next step in their learning journey.

To all the families who are moving on: thank you for being part of our school. We’ll be thinking of you, and we look forward to hearing good news about your child in the future!

📅 Important End-of-Term Information

🔸 Tomorrow is the last day of term – Friday 11th July
It will be a typical Friday with the normal finish time in the afternoon, so please make sure your child comes to school as usual.

🔸 School reopens on Thursday 28th August
Children will return on this day after the summer holiday.

🛠️ Summer Work at School

If you walk past the school during the summer, you might see some building and improvement work happening! We’ll share more information with you before we come back in August so you know what to expect.

🌈 Have a Wonderful Summer

We wish all of our families a safe, relaxing, and happy summer break. Whether you’re going away or staying at home, we hope you enjoy time together. We can’t wait to see everyone again at the end of August, ready for another exciting year ahead.

With warmest wishes,
Ms Lou Harrison
Headteacher
King Richard III Infant and Nursery School

World Book Day 2025!

This year we will be celebrating World Book Day on Friday 7th March.

We are going to be having a theme of ‘snuggle up and read’ and will be inviting the children to come to school in their pyjamas to take part in a bedtime read in the hall. If your child would like to dress up as a character from a book that would also be fine but please do not feel that you need to buy a costume especially for the day. Alternatively, if your children would prefer to, they can wear their normal school uniform.

Throughout the day we will be sharing lots of stories, having a World Book Day Assembly and all of the adults will be reading to a different class than the one they would normally read to.

All of the children will be bringing home a £1 World Book Day Book Token that can either be exchanged for one of 10 special World Book Day books or used to get £1 off any book costing £2.99 or more.

You can find your nearest bookseller at:

If you type in ‘World Book Day’ into Amazon, you can also find books for only £1.
