Pentecost Service – Wednesday 24 May

Year 5 will be leading the Pentecost celebration at Holy Trinity Church, Coalbrookdale on Wednesday 24 May.  All school children will attend, and we would like to invite parents/carers to join us.

 

The service will start at 1.45pm.

 

All children will walk back to school and should be collected as normal at the end of the day.

RSE Parent Drop-in

Next half term children from Years 1 – 6 will begin their Relationships and Sex Education lessons.  The lessons are age appropriate and follow government guidelines.

 

In preparation for this, we will be holding a parent drop-in session on Thursday afternoon at 3:30pm in the school hall.  Please come along to have a look.

 

The purpose of this is to share the materials we use to teach these lessons, so you have a clear understanding of what your children will be taught.

 

Mrs Postance and Miss Walton will be on hand to answer any questions.

 

We will also be providing a leaflet with the information for you to take home with you and for those who can’t attend a copy will be put on Seesaw.

After School Clubs

The following clubs will run after the Half Term holiday (week commencing 5 June)

 

Monday:  Summer Games (rounders, athletics, and tennis) with Embrace (Years 1 & 2) (5 June – 10 July; 6 sessions – £15.00) (max 20 children)
