Dear parents,
Pantomime.
This year’s Junior pantomime will be ‘Aladdin’. However, the closures due to snow have meant that rehearsals for the Junior pantomime are a little way behind schedule. Therefore I need to change the dates for the performance. The pantomime will now take place on Tuesday 9th February and Thursday 11th February. The shows will start at 1.30pm. Tickets, priced at £2.00 each will go on sale from Friday (22/1/10). Tickets will be limited to 3 per family in the first instance with the remainder being made available on a first come first served basis from Wednesday 3rd February.

Parent’s evenings.
Unfortunately, due to the change of dates for the pantomime parents evenings will be moved to Tuesday 23rd February and Wednesday 24th February. A letter detailing appointments will come out closer to the date.

Haiti earthquake
Year 6 are planning a series of stalls and activities to raise money for the Haiti Earthquake fund. This will take place on Friday of this week and will involve years 2-5. It would be appreciated if children in these years could come to school with monies to enable them to participate in the activities.
There is also a Haiti earthquake concert being organised by St Pauls on Friday 27th January starting at 7.30pm. The entrance fee is £5.00 per person and includes refreshments. All proceeds to the Haiti earthquake fund.

Extra Curricular
After school clubs will be running as normal this week.

Kingswood.
The date for the year 6 outdoor pursuit transition trip is 17th March -19th March. As in previous years the cost of the centre and all activities will be met by the schools. Parents are asked however to contribute £20.00 to the cost of transport. Please fill in the reply slip below if you wish your child to attend this highly successful and enjoyable experience.
A meeting for all parents will be held shortly in Y Pant to outline the activities, discuss any issues or concerns that may arise as well as providing clothing lists, medical forms and dietary requirements. The evening will be hosted by a Kingswood representative and head teachers from the cluster comprehensives.
Monies will need to be in school by half term please.


I do/do not wish my child _______________________________ class ____________ to attend the Kingswood visit on the 17th – 19th March. I do/ do not enclose the £20 to cover the cost of transport.
