Dear Parents

Children in Need
A fantastic response from you all has meant that the school raised £1,135.00 for Children in Need. This is an amazing achievement especially in the present climate. Thank you very much for your generosity. A big well done must go to Year 6 pupils for organising such an enjoyable afternoon, they should be very proud of their efforts.

Parking - Palalwyf Avenue
I have recently had a lengthy conversation with the Athletics Club in an attempt to try and resolve the car park issue. A number of ideas have been discussed which the Chair has kindly agreed to take to the Committee. Hopefully, we will be able to work with the Athletics Club and reach some form of compromise in the near future. We will inform parents as soon as decision a has been made.

Mr & Mrs Burton-Williams
Thank you to Mr & Mrs Burton-Williams for their kind donation of a surface top hob and oven which has gone to Year 1. I am sure that the pupils in Year 1 will have a lovely time cooking some wonderful recipes.

Concerts
Tickets for Concerts will be available from Tuesday 30th November at the school office. Tickets will be limited to 4 per family in the first instance, and spare tickets will be released closer to the performances. Tickets cost £2 each.

This year, an additional Infant concert for Grandparents only will take place on Friday 10 December starting at approximately 1.30 p.m. in the main hall. This will be a ticket event, but we will not be charging Grandparents for this concert. Four tickets per family are available on a first come, first serve basis. (We have a maximum of 250 seats per performance.)

Dates of the Concerts are below – all performances will start at approximately 1.30 p.m.
8 December Infant Christmas Concert
9 December Infant Christmas Concert
All our children in the Infant Department will be in the finale of our concerts, so therefore they will need to stay for the whole duration.

14 December Junior Christmas Concert
15 December Junior Christmas Concert

School Meals
With the end of term quickly approaching, please could I remind parents that all meals are to be paid for in advance on a Monday morning. It is school procedure to report any arrears at the end of the half term to our auditing team at the Education Office.

Yours sincerely

Rugby Tournament

Dear Parents

Due to the weather conditions, the rugby tournament has been cancelled. Apologies to parents who may have re-arranged their day to attend but the heavy rainfall and water logged pitch has defeated us!

Dear Parents

Children in Need
Children in Need is this Friday 19th November. In support of this event, children may come to school in non-uniform, pyjamas or spots, if they so wish. A contribution would be appreciated. Year 6 will also be setting up a variety of stalls and activities that children can take part in, this will be open to pupils from Year 1 upwards. Last time we collected for Children in Need we raised a staggering £415.10! Let’s see if we can beat last year’s figure.

Inset Day
Just to remind parents that there is an Inset day on Monday 22nd November so therefore school will be closed to pupils on this day.

Parent Behaviour
May I please remind parents that verbally aggressive, intimidating or insulting language directed at staff will not be tolerated under any circumstances. Should it transpire that a parent is guilty of such behaviour, the school is within its right to ban the parent from the school grounds. If an issue or concern has arisen please discuss it sensibly with the Class Teacher or alternatively see myself or Miss Harwood.

Palalwyf Avenue
I have received a number of complaints from the residents of Palalwyf Avenue regarding parking before and after school and the attitude of what appears to be some of our parents. I appreciate that the parking is not easy and that at times can be stressful, but I would urge parents to please be respectful of the residents when dropping off or picking up pupils.
Thank you for your co-operation in this matter.
