World Book Day – Thursday 2nd March 2023
To celebrate World Book Day children can bring in their favourite book to read to other children. If you have any children’s story books at home which you would like to donate to the school we will also be running a book swap shop on the day. Please do not feel obliged to buy any books or costumes for the day. The children are expected to come to school in their normal uniform as we do not wish to put additional financial pressure on parents. However, if your child already has a favourite book character costume and wishes to come dressed up then they may do so.
World Book Tokens were issued last week, please check your child’s schoolbag.
School lunches have a special menu that day, please see the attached poster.

Children’s Mental Health Week – Mon 6th – Fri 10th February
Let’s Connect is about making meaningful connections. Human beings thrive in communities, and this connection is vital for our wellbeing. When we have healthy connections – to family, friends and others – this can support our mental health and our sense of wellbeing. And when our need for rewarding social connections is not met, we can sometimes feel isolated and lonely – which can have a negative impact on our mental health.
As parents and carers, you play an important role in your child’s mental health. Click the link below to find a range of free resources that you can access:
