Good afternoon,

This week has been another fantastic one in school, with so much happening across every year group. From exciting classroom learning and memorable enrichment activities to musical performances from Years 1 & 2, it has been wonderful to see our pupils embracing every opportunity with enthusiasm, resilience and pride.

One of the highlights of the week has been our transition morning, where the children spent time in their new classes with their teachers and classmates for September. It was wonderful to see their excitement, confidence and enthusiasm as they began preparing for the next stage of their learning journey. We were also delighted to welcome our new Reception children for their final INSPIRE sessions. These have been a fantastic opportunity for our youngest learners and their families to become familiar with school life and we can't wait to welcome them properly when they begin their adventure with us in September.

A huge thank you to our dedicated staff, supportive families and, of course, our amazing children, who continue to make our school such a positive and vibrant place to be.

I can hardly believe that we are already heading into our final week of the academic year. This last term has flown by and as we prepare for the summer break, we are looking forward to celebrating all that our children have accomplished. There is still plenty to look forward to over the coming week and we hope everyone enjoys the special events and opportunities that will round off another successful and memorable school year.

Dates to Remember for the Final Week:

Leavers Assembly Y6 Wed 15/07/2026 09:00 - 11:30

Please find attached the information regarding taking holidays during the school term. This guidance is provided to school from the Local Authority. We will keep this item on the newsletter as a standing item and as a reminder to all families.

I would like to remind families that if they are choosing to take a holiday during term time that they ensure that they notify school that they are absent with the genuine reason for absence. It is important that we know this for safeguarding matters.

Kind Regards,

Mr M Fletcher

Our school expectation is that pupils will read 5 times per week.

This is monitored by staff in school and at the end of each half term, pupils who have consistently read will be rewarded for their tremendous effort.

If any parents require support getting logged into 'Boom Reader' can access this each Wednesday morning at the start of the school day.

Thanks,

Mrs Roberts
