We do not want the children to miss out on having some Halloween fun, while we cannot have our usual party in the evening we have decided that Friday 30th of October will be a dress up day in school.

Children can come wearing a costume and will enjoy some Halloween activities with their class throughout the day. Lunch that day have a special Halloween theme and there will be some special treats in class too. Please choose costumes carefully – nothing too scary and no props as these will be easily lost of broken

Our Parent Council has been working hard to think of great ideas to help keep events in the community as normal as possible.

Attached below is a poster for a Neighbourhood Pumpkin Trail – let’s get as many people involved as possible.

As I am sure you will understand, due to COVID-19 we cannot conduct face to face meetings with parents and have been working to find an alternative approach. This year, parents consultations will be conducted by telephone throughout the week beginning Monday 26th of October.

You will receive a text informing you which day you will receive your call, all calls will be between the hours of 3.30pm and 4.30pm. The call will appear as no caller ID on your phone. This will give you an opportunity to chat directly to your child’s teacher who will be able to update you on how they have settled back into school and for you to ask any questions you may have.

As you know, we normally issue a school newsletter each term to keep you informed in advance of any special events in school. This year things are very different and although we have many plans for the school year these need to be flexible as we adapt to changing guidance surrounding COVID-19.

We do not want to issue a newsletter and then have to change dates frequently therefore we will issue news via the app and blog. We will try do do this in a timely manner and appreciate your patience.

Well done to this week’s Star Pupils. Great effort and manners displayed this week.
