Dear Parents/Carers
POPPY APPEAL: We have a variety of items for sale in aid of the Poppy Appeal this week – suggested donations are .50p or £1 – please see attached sheet. Please can Infants bring money in a clearly marked envelope with your child’s name/class, thank you. Year 6 pupils will be going around the classes before 9.30am so that items can be bought.
T4U Shoebox Appeal – ‘Give Love in a Box This Christmas’ – we will be supporting this cause again this year – if wanting to participate, children can ask for forms from their class teacher. Please can any shoe boxes be brought to school on Friday 16th November – many thanks. A copy of the information leaflet is attached for reference or you can visit www.teams4u.com for more information.
AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS on MONDAYS AND WEDNESDAY: Please note that if any After School club is cancelled at short notice due to staff shortage and there is another Club being held on the same day, children will automatically stay to do the alternative After School club. This refers to Dragon Sports (Tennis) and Netball on Mondays and Tri-Golf and Rugby on Wednesdays. Please note that Dragon Sports and Netball are weather dependent.
PTA UPDATE: NEXT PTA MEETING: The next Meeting will be held on Monday 12th November at 3.30pm – all welcome! A total of £66.40 was raised from the Year 1 and 2 Film Night and £225.24 was raised from the Monster Ball Discos – many thanks for your support and to the parents and staff who helped on the night.
SCHOOL DINNER PAYMENT REMINDER: AS PREVIOUSLY ADVISED, PLEASE NOTE THAT WE WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTING CASH OR CHEQUES FOR DINNER MONEY PAYMENT – ALL DINNER MONEY PAYMENTS MUST BE MADE VIA PARENT PAY. If this is a problem, please telephone Reception to make an appointment to see Mr Jones. Letters were sent to parents on how to set up Parent Pay (if not already done so) before half term. School dinners cost £2.30 per day or £11.50 for the whole week. A new School Dinner Menu has started after half term.
PLEASE NOTE THAT PAYMENT FOR THE PANTO THIS YEAR WILL ALSO BE DONE VIA PARENT PAY THEREFORE IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU SET PARENT PAY UP WHEN YOU RECEIVE THE PARENT PAY ACTIVATION LETTERS (IF YOU HAVEN’T DONE SO ALREADY). Again, we will NOT be accepting cash for Panto payment.
