• STAFF SHOUT OUT FOR CHRISTMAS

  Mon 30 Nov 2020

  I know that children love to pass on gifts to staff at this time of year and for the past few years we have donated to charity instead.  This year is a bit different for us all. 

  I have sent home shout out cards for you and your child to write.  Give a shout out to any staff member, teaching or non-teaching and let them know why they are so great! 

  Drop them back into a box in school and nursery and our secret Santa will share them on the staff shout out board.

  This will mean so much to all our staff who work tirelessly in school. 

  Thank you so much for supporting us this year - I can't wait to read and share all your wonderful messages to the staff

• Join us for Five to Thrive

  Mon 09 Nov 2020
  Good afternoon
  Please see the poster for an invite to a fantastic online session which looks at Five to Thrive!
  This is a brilliant opportunity to learn about how your child learns and how you can help your child's brain develop healthily. I have done this course myself and as a mum, it was so powerful.
  See the details at the bottom to register.
  Remember all of the local schools are part of THRiVe and we work collaboratively to improve outcomes for all our children and young people.
  
  Let me know how you get on.
  Many thanks
