Mrs N’s Notes, 17.5.24
Week 3 menus ahead. Please remember that P.6 & 7 pupils do not automatically receive a free school meal. All meals should be payed online before your child purchases their breakfast or lunch.
PRIMARY 1 INDUCTION
We look forward to welcoming our new Primary 1 pupils to join us on Monday afternoon, 20.5.24. All families should enter through the main school doors. If your child is at our own nursery that day, they will be brought around to Room 1 by our nursery staff. All children will have the chance to play in class, while I run the adults through some important information for the year ahead. The adults will meet in the gym at 2.00pm. We will be finished by 2.45pm, allowing you time to collect any other children when they finish.
NURSERY GRADUATION
Our youngest learners are looking forward to performing for their families at their Graduation on the afternoon of 19th June. Doors will open at 1.15pm, with the event kicking off properly at 1.30pm. A letter is coming home on Monday with information about ticket sales.

If your child attends Kirkshaws Primary or Nursery you are a member of our Parent Forum and eligible to attend all meetings and be a part of the committee if you wish.
POLYTUNNEL UPDATE
Please remember that we would welcome any volunteers with a little bit of gardening knowledge to guide us in our growing project this summer. You don’t need to be fit enough to kneel & dig – we’ll get our hands dirty if you can give us a little advice! Please contact Mrs King if this is your thing!
PARENTS’ NIGHT
It was lovely to see so many of you last night as we celebrated your child’s achievements over another year. If you did not manage and would like to speak to your child’s teacher, please contact us and we can arrange something to suit. We asked all parents to complete a short questionnaire last night. If you weren’t there, or missed this opportunity, please see the link below. This will remain open over the weekend.
