Communication with our families and wider school community is very important to us. We want to keep in touch with you in order to keep you updated about your child/children’s progress as well as letting you know about events and opportunities across the school community.

We have sent letters out to all of the families that have not yet provided us with emails or downloaded and signed up to Groupcall Xpressions.

All families who have provided a valid email address and have signed up for Groupcall Xpressions by Friday the 4th of November 2022 will be entered into our Aldi Voucher Competition! Winners will be announced on Monday the 7th of November 2022.

A Halloween Treat

Thursday 27th of October 2022
A Halloween Treat!
Dear Families,

As you will be aware we will be celebrating Halloween on Friday 28th October 2022. In order to raise some money for school funds, which supports us to pay for trips, parties and treats for the children, our House Captains will be selling Halloween body transfers during the day on Friday. The transfers are Halloween themed and will be priced at 10p each. If children wish to purchase a transfer they should bring money to school with them on Friday.

Yours,
Miss L Davidson

Halloween 2022 Arrangements

Arrangements for Halloween!

Dear Families,

We will be celebrating Halloween on Friday 28th October 2022.

Children are welcome to come to school dressed up in their Halloween costumes, but there is no obligation to do so. Anyone opting not to dress up may come in non-uniform.

NB: There will be no facilities for changing into costumes, or having any make-up applied, in school. This will all need to be done at home.

For children who do dress up, please note that no accessories of any kind should be brought to school, for example masks, swords, knives, wands, guns, tridents etc. This helps prevent loss and / or injury. Please remember that costumes should be age appropriate. We kindly ask that families are mindful of the age range in our school when preparing costumes for the parties as we do not want to scare any children. Children should also avoid full face coverings as this could pose a hazard when climbing stairs and moving around the building etc.

A special whole-school Halloween assembly has been organised and classes will be able to undertake spooky activities throughout the day within their classes. Pupils will also take part in their own Halloween class party. We would also like to say a huge thank you to one of our family members who donate a recent bingo win to the school. This has helped us to purchase crisps, sweets and juice for all the Halloween parties.

We are all looking forward to a spooktacular week!

Yours,
Miss L Davidson
