A letter went out last week explaining that this year’s theme for the Highland Games procession is ‘The Smurfs’. If your child would like to be part of the procession, please fill in the return slip on the letter and send in in their homelink.
Please note that the date of the Highland Games is 15th of June, not the 23rd of June as previously stated in the letter.
The first ‘Toasty Tuesday’ was a great success today!
If children want to buy a slice of toast and butter at break, can they please make sure they have the exact 10p! This is due to us now being a ‘no cash’ school, we no longer have any change!
Thank you
Thank you to everyone who attended the Valentine’s Disco. This event helps us to raise money to pay for lots of the things that happen in school.

International school meals day is being celebrated on 14th March and Woodpark will once again be taking part!
International School Meals Day is a unique campaign with the aim of raising awareness of good nutrition for all children regardless of their circumstances, some of its main aims are detailed below:
• Raise awareness of the importance of the nutritional quality of school meal programs worldwide.
• Emphasise the connection between healthy eating, education and better learning.
• Connect children around the world to foster healthy eating habits and promote well-being in schools.
The menu on the day will be influenced by the pupils in each school with the items being chosen from the current winter menu.
The Woodpark Valentine’s Disco takes place next Thursday (14/2) from 6:30pm – 8pm.
All children must be picked up by an adult at 8pm as usual.
