Parents’ Evening / Book Fair

Help us earn free books for school!

We are looking forward to welcoming you into the school for Parents’ Evening this week on Thursday 12th October 2023. You should have already received your appointment time, so if you are unaware of your time slot(s), please contact the main office.

This week we have the Scholastic Book Fair in school. Children are getting the chance to visit the Book Fair today and write down the name of a book they like. The starting price for books this year is £2. There is also a small amount of stationery on offer once again, with prices ranging from 40p to £4.

If you would like your child to purchase a book/stationery in school, they can do this between Tuesday and Friday of this week. The Book Fair will also be on display in the main hall during Parents’ Evening, so you will be able to purchase a book for your child at this point also.

Thank you.
