Good afternoon,

I sent an email last week for parents/carers to share their views on attendance. Please see the message below. Your views matter to us:

It is two years in March since we overhauled our behaviour policy. We have started the process of reviewing the policy and would love some feedback from parents/carers. Please click the link and complete the survey attached: https://forms.office.com/e/saRE2QkA29

Please try to remain constructive as much as possible. It is important to be able to help us move forward in reviewing and improving our policy.

Happy weekend,

Mr Robinson

Our school value for this half term is Generosity. “Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Galatians 6:9

The Christian value of generosity can be seen in many aspects of school life, both inside and outside the classroom. During Collective Worship for this half term we will be focusing on this school value and how we can show this in school and in our community.

Our focus in Collective Worship this week has been looking at the Christian Value: Courage. Our theme this week has been about Positive Input. Our Worships have been looking at the Big Picture News Question: Should YouTube have more rules for younger users? This has struck up lots of discussion in Collective Worship and in the classroom regarding how things have changed from when our children's parents or grandparents used to watch things compared to now? Please continue this discussion at home, we would love to hear your thoughts regarding YouTube and the internet. #LetYourLightShine💡

Dear Parent/Carer,

We are writing to inform you that there have recently been a couple of cases of head lice in school. While lice are nothing more than a nuisance, it is important that children are checked on a weekly basis so that any head lice can be dealt with quickly and before they can be allowed to spread.

Please follow the simple routine below to ensure that you are doing all you can to keep head lice outbreaks to a minimum.

CHECK:

Your child’s hair once a week 

Use a proper detection comb to trap head lice. 

If you find live lice, consult a pharmacist for treatment advice immediately. 

If head lice are spotted, take a close look at the hair of all the family. Please contact your local pharmacy for treatment and continue to check for head lice on a regular, weekly basis.

For further information on head lice please see your pharmacist or visit https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/head-lice-and-nits/

Maths Number Day - Friday 7th February 2025

# data[].attributes.body
We are proud to be celebrating Number Day on Friday 7th February. Number Day is recognised in many schools across the UK. It is in partnership with the NSPCC. On this day we are taking up the challenge and Dressing up for Digits. We are asking your children and staff to wear an item of clothing with a number on it and make a donation.

This could be a favourite sports top or cap, or even a onesie. Or why not get more creative and design a unique t-shirt, hat or even become a human-sized calculator or dice. Be as creative as you like.

Thanks, Mrs Metcalfe

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
