Cross Country Trials

What an overwhelming response to our cross-country running trials today!

We are incredibly proud of every child who took part. Cross-country and long-distance running is challenging, and it was fantastic to see so many children pushing themselves, showing determination and giving their very best. A huge well done and thank you to everyone who participated — you should all be extremely proud of yourselves!

The number of children taking part has certainly shown us that there is a real enthusiasm for cross-country and athletics. It is something we would love to explore further in the future, with more opportunities for all children who wish to get involved.

We were particularly impressed by the supportive and positive attitudes shown by the children, from Year 1 all the way through to Year 6. It was wonderful to see everyone encouraging one another and celebrating each other's achievements. Well done, everyone!

A special congratulations to the children who finished first in their year group and will have the opportunity to represent the school at the ‘Race Against Hate’ event. Your teachers will be sending a message via the school app with all of the information you need. This message will also include a consent form for you to authorise your child’s participation in the event.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support. Most importantly, a huge well done and thank you to every child who took part today. You have truly done yourselves proud! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️👏

📚 Weekly Attendance Update 📚

Each Friday, we’ll be sharing our whole-school attendance figure with families as we work together towards achieving 95% attendance or above consistently. Every day in school counts, and we really appreciate your continued support in helping our children attend school regularly and make the most of every learning opportunity.

🌟 This Week’s Attendance: 94.6% 🌟

A huge well done to our pupils and families for achieving 94.6% attendance this week! 👏

We are incredibly close to our school target of 95%, so every day really does make a difference. Let’s keep up the fantastic effort and see if we can reach 95% and beyond next week! 💪📚

📚 Roald Dahl Day – Change of Date 🍫🦊

TUESDAY 15th SEPTEMBER

Just a quick update regarding our upcoming Roald Dahl Day.

As Year 3 will be starting their swimming block next Monday, we have decided to move Roald Dahl Day to Tuesday instead. This will make things much easier for children who are dressing up, as changing from costumes such as The Fantastic Mr Fox or an Oompa Loompa into swimming attire (and back again!) could prove a little tricky!

We hope this change doesn’t cause too much inconvenience and that the children will still have lots of fun celebrating all things Roald Dahl on Tuesday.

Thank you for your understanding and support! 

We look forward to seeing all the wonderful costumes! 📚✨

IMPORTANT REMINDER

As we begin the new school year, we would like to kindly remind everyone of a few important guidelines regarding snacks brought into school.

• No nut-based products are permitted. This includes spreads such as Nutella. 
• Grapes must not be brought into school as a snack, even if they have been cut.
• Raisins must not be brought into school as a snack.

These guidelines are very important for the safety and wellbeing of all our children, and we kindly ask everyone to ensure they are followed.

Thank you for your continued support, cooperation, and understanding.

Children are welcome to bring in a Roald Dahl book or even dress as their favourite Roald Dahl character.
