Dear Parents

Commemoration Day

Please remember all pupils Reception – Year 6 will be walking to church tomorrow to celebrate Commemoration Day. Pupils will be dismissed from church at 3.00 p.m. Pupils will only be escorted back to school for 3.30 p.m. if you have notified me in writing. I look forward to welcoming you to the service if you are able to attend.

Soccer Stars and Guitar Lessons

Please note that the above activities have been cancelled due to the Commemoration service.

May Fayre

Thank you to all parents, pupils and friends of the school who supported the May Fayre on Saturday 14 May. Congratulations to Bridget Charlton, Karen Lawley and Susanne Leeder and their team of helpers for organising such a successful day; their hard work is greatly acknowledged. Thank you to Bronwyn Skinner and Sheila Matthews for counting all the 2p, 5p’s, and 10p’s etc until late on Saturday afternoon.

School closes for the half term holiday on Friday 27^th May and re-opens to pupils on Tuesday 7^th June.
