Dear Parents and Carers,
As we approach the end of term, there’s a buzz of excitement in the air! We have a busy few weeks ahead, filled with fun activities, important updates, and opportunities to get involved. Please take a moment to read through the information below.
Ninja Warrior Trip – Important Informatio
We’re thrilled about our upcoming trip to Ninja Warrior! On Friday, I visited the venue to complete the risk assessment, and everything is set for a fantastic experience.
Key Details:
- Date: Thursday 10th July
- Departure: Bus leaves school at 9:15 AM. Please ensure pupils arrive on time.
- Clothing: Pupils should wear PE kit and trainers (no sandals, Crocs, or open-toe shoes)
- What to Bring: Just a water bottle – squash will be provided throughout the morning
- No bags or money needed
- Special Treat: Ice cream for all pupils on our return to school!
For the first hour, our pupils will have exclusive access to the venue. From 11:00 AM, another school will join us. A waiver will need to be completed by parents – we’ll share the link via Schoop as soon as it’s available.
Nursery Graduation – Thank You!
A heartfelt thank you to all the parents and carers who joined us this week to celebrate our amazing nursery pupils at their graduation. We hope you enjoyed the special occasion as much as we did – it was a joy to see the children shine!
Unfortunately, we’re currently experiencing some technical issues with uploading the graduation photos to our website. We’re working hard to resolve this and will get the photos to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Changes to Our Family Engagement Team
We’re saying a fond farewell to Gemma Addis-Fuller, who has secured a new role within the local authority. We’re incredibly grateful for her contributions and are pleased to share that she will still be involved in family engagement across the cluster – so you may still see her around!
We’re delighted to welcome Ceri-Marie Jones as our new Family Engagement Officer. Ceri will be with us on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and we’re already planning some exciting activities for September.
