The latest newsletter for the school

10th February 2025

Good afternoon, everyone!

Today’s newsletter is shorter than usual – it’s just got a couple of reminders as we move through this last week of the half term.

Firstly, I hope everyone has been able to book a parents' evening meeting this week. Remember, the meetings are being held on Tuesday and Thursday after school this week.

The second reminder is that next week is half term and the school will be closed for the half term week. The last day of this half term is Friday 14th February and we’ll be open again on Monday 24^th February.

The workers on the playground are confident that the work will be finished by the time we come back – thank you very much for your patience and support over the last two weeks.

Have a lovely half term when it arrives and we’ll look forward to seeing you again soon 😊

Many thanks –

Ms Harrison

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:

https://www.worldbookday.com/books-and-tokens/books/participating-retailers/

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

Happy reading!

Happy reading everyone!
