Thank you to all parents and carers who contact the school when their child will be absent due to ill health or holidays.
We would be grateful if you could contact the school before 9:30am on the day of your child’s first absence and if you could give the reason for the absence and where possible, date of return to school.
This helps us to ensure that the children are safe and have not gone missing on the journey to school.
Lost property is an ongoing concern for parents, pupils and staff. If school staff or pupils find belongings in the playground or at the end of the day they will look on labels for a name and return the item to the pupil or their class teacher.
We would be grateful if you could please ensure that all belongings are clearly labelled with your child’s name so that this can happen as quickly as possible.
Any items without names will be kept in lost property so that they can be claimed. We will put any lost property on a table at the main entrance during parent interviews so that it can be claimed.
We encourage all children to be responsible for their own belongings and those of others by clearly labeling belongings, putting items in bags and trays and taking home items at the end of each day.
We’d like to take this opportunity to remind all children, parents and carers that scooters and bicycles brought to school must be stored in the bicycle park behind the blue fence. This area cannot be locked as this is a fire exit.
We would therefore recommend that children use chains or padlocks to secure their bikes and scooters during the day.
Please note that there are no office staff in school on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday afternoons this term.
