Remember this week:  

Tuesday – walk singing your favourite songs.
Wednesday – walk wearing sunglasses.
Thursday – walk wearing something bright to be seen.
Friday – walk with crazy hair/special hair accessory.

Next week, week beginning Monday 15th May, is walk to school week. We will post more information regarding this in due course.

If your child wears earrings, please make sure they do not wear them to school on their PE days.

Please also can children leave their PE kit in school during the week rather than taking it home with the chance of forgetting to bring it back in.

Thank you

Please remember the importance of bringing glasses to school with you if you need them.

The children are encouraged to bring with them a picnic cover/blanket  to sit on when we are outside enjoying our garden party on Friday for the King’s Coronation.

Please ensure that all children going to Dumfries House have the appropriate clothing, including sturdy outdoor shoes or wellies if possible. Long sleeved tops, trousers and waterproof jackets.

Gloves should NOT be worn.  Any open cuts on hands should be covered with a waterproof plaster. Ensure that long hair is tied back.

Thank you for your co-operation

Payment at the door and bring return slip with you on the night!

Please check your child/children’s hair for any “unwanted visitors”. 

Thank You.

In celebration of the Coronation of His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen Consort, our pupils will take part in a dress down day with the children wearing red, white and blue (no football shirts please) or purple. As part of the celebration we will have a garden party for pupils as well as some other fun activities to complete in class.

This will take place on Friday 5th May. A reminder that the school will be closed on Monday 8th May.

We will be having a Non-Uniform day this Friday(28th April). Children can come to school in their own clothes ( no football strips etc). We are asking kindly for a £1 donation to be paid via Parentpay. This money goes towards the cost of our House Prize trips, without these donations we would be unable to have these special events for the children.

Children who take part in this activity will automatically receive an entry into our Raffle (which is also on Parentpay)

Week 1 – w/c 24th April, 15th May, 5th and 26th June

Week 2 – w/c 1st, 22nd May and 12th June
