After school Homework Club

Our second block of Homework starts next week with a Literacy focus.

To support both pupils and parents/carers, we will have an after school Homework Club from 3.00-4.00pm, on Tuesdays 12^th, 19^th and 26^th November and 3^rd December.

Pupils and parents/carers of all stages are invited to join us.

It’s a drop-in session so parents and pupils don’t need to come every week or stay for the full time – the time can be used to help support our pupils to complete their Literacy homework and to use laptops for research/reference, if required.

If you’re planning to join us, please collect your child as usual at 3.00pm then make your way to our Main Office.

Literacy Morning

A warm welcome to all family and friends on Tuesday 12th November from 9.00am – 10.20am,

to visit our classes and see the fantastic Literacy learning and teaching taking place in our school.

We look forward to seeing you all!

We will be celebrating Hallowe’en on Thursday 31st October at the school.

Pupils can either come to school in a Hallowe’en costume or dressed in casual clothes like a Dress Down Day.

Please ensure that their Hallowe’en costume is suitable for playing outside during interval and lunch, and that they can take it on and off by themselves when using the toilet.

If you wish your child to go home at lunchtime to change, please inform the school of this arrangement.

Please note – no huge accessories (swords etc) or scary masks.

Our pupils will be taking part in Hallowe’en activities throughout the day and will be having a party in their class in the afternoon.

We’re looking forward to a spooky and fun-filled day!
