Many thanks to the PTA who did a marvellous job organising the Halloween disco.  It was a great success.  A huge thank you is extended to PTA members and parent helpers for giving up their  time along with school staff (who also give up their own time) to organise and supervise the event.  Many thanks to all parents for your patience while waiting to pick up your child.  We had a lot of children and have to ensure each child is collected safely and that everyone leaves the building in an orderly manner.   Thank you for your understanding.

Changes to the Lunch Menu

Leave a comment

Reminder – a letter was sent to all pupils last week to highlight planned changes to the lunch menu due to ongoing building work taking place in the school.  Please note cash will be required each day to pay for breakfast or lunch if your child is not in receipt of free school meals.  There will not a tuck shop in operation this week. Apologies for any inconvenience this will cause.

Our week ahead is an extremely busy one with Parents Evenings taking place both on Tuesday and Thursday.  If you have not already made your appointment online please do so or contact the school to confirm a time. Throughout the week we have an action packed timetable of workshops, presentations, assemblies and prayer services for our MISSION WEEK.  Please check your child’s bag for a letter detailing all that will take place this week. The MISSION TEAM will work with classes this week and prepare them for a presentation to share with parents – Wed. Pr. 1 – (2.00pm), Thurs. Pr. 4 – 7 (2.00pm) – all parents and grandparents are invited to come along and share the learning. Please note the team will also set up a stall this week selling pocket money priced goods to support their Mission – i.e rosary beads.
