Half term / PD Days
We break up today for half term (tomorrow and Friday are PD/training days for staff) and return on Monday 2nd November. We hope you enjoy the break.
Harvest
We celebrated Harvest today and the children watched an online service from Revd Naylor. Thank you for your Harvest Festival donations today which will be passed on to Telford Food Bank. Don’t forget to look at Seesaw to see the children signing, using Makaton, Cauliflowers Fluffy.
School lunches – Wednesdays
Please remember to pre-order the week before, your child’s sandwich if they wish to have a school sandwich on a Wednesday. Order forms are available on the school website and can be emailed to caroline.hodgkins@taw.org.uk. Thank you.
After School Clubs – after half term
Please remember to sign up for after school multi-sports clubs for children in Years 3 – 6 which will resume after half term (Monday 2nd November – Friday 11th December). There is a different year group on each day (see below) so class bubbles don’t mix.
These will only go ahead if we get sufficient interest (minimum 5 children per session). Each afternoon session will cost £2.50 (£15.00 for the half term).
Permission slips are attached below. Please return, along with payment, in a sealed envelope to the school office. Permission slips can be emailed back to school (caroline.hodgkins@taw.org.uk) with the money sent in separately with your child if you prefer.
Monday – Year 4 (2nd November – 7th December – £15.00) – 3.00pm – 4.00pm
Tuesday – Year 6 (3rd November – 8th December – £15.00) – 3.20pm – 4.20pm
Wednesday – Year 3 (4th November – 9th December – £15.00) – 3.00pm – 4.00pm
Friday – Year 5 (6th November – 11th December – £15.00) – 3.20pm – 4.20pm
Children participating in after school clubs do not need to wear school uniform on their club day. Please send them in to school in their PE kit.
Half term / PD Days
We break up for half term next Wednesday 21st October (Thursday and Friday are PD Days for staff) and school resumes on Monday 2nd November. We hope you enjoy the break.
Harvest
Next Wednesday children will celebrate Harvest Festival. Unfortunately, we will not be able to walk up to church this year but instead will watch Revd Naylor’s service online in the classrooms. We would still like children to bring in Harvest gifts (tins, packet, dried goods etc). There will be a wheelbarrow on the top playground on Wednesday morning for items to be left in. All donations will be passed on to the Telford Food Bank.
Children in Need
We will be fundraising for Children in Need on Friday 13 November – more details after half term.
Virtual Sports
Telford & Wrekin Sports Partnership will be running virtual sports competitions for KS2 after half term. This will allow schools to compete in their own time and without the need to transport children to other venues and to enable competitions to be completed in ‘bubbles’ adhering to the Government’s Covid guidance. Children in Years 3 – 6 will be participating in a number of these competitions during their PE lessons.
