Attendance has been wonderful and we are delighted to see all of our boys and girls at school every day. This is so important. Long may this continue. If you have not registered with Class Dojo then please do so, it is a convenient tool to stay in touch with your child’s class teacher on education matters.
The children have had a wonderful first week back and are looking forward to coming back on Monday to see us!

Welcome back to session 2025 – 2026
Welcome back to school from all of the staff at St Bartholomew’s! We are delighted to see the children return to their academic home . A huge thank you to all of our parents and carers for ensuring that all the children look so smart in their uniforms. It’s so important to feel a sense of belonging and togetherness and wearing our uniform greatly contributes to that.
A gentle reminder that parents do not wait in the playground with their children, before 9am. The playground is supervised just before 9am to ensure children remain in their lines, ready to start the school day, calmly and quietly. Your support with this important matter is much appreciated. Thank you.
Class Dojo is set up in all classes and I would encourage you to use this electronic tool. It is a great way to communicate with your child’s class teacher about their learning. Should there be any health and wellbeing issue that you wish to discuss, make an appointment to speak with the class teacher. Thank you in advance.
St Bartholomew’s feast day is this Sunday 24th August and as such we will celebrate mass, as a whole school, on Monday 25th August at 9.45am in St Bartholomew’s Church. Please join us to celebrate this Patronal feast with us as a Parish community. The children will then have a fun afternoon with the ice cream van paying us a visit. A great way to start a new school year!
Kind regards,
Deirdre Bolland
Head Teacher
