NewsletterAutumn Term w/c 16th October 2023

~ October 2023 ~

Last week our attendance winners were Beech with 98%.

Overall our school attendance was 95% 

We are looking forward to seeing parents at our parent lunch on Friday 20th October.

There will be macaroni cheese, stir fry, jacket potato and pasta, tomato sauce, beans and cheese. Alongside this there is also freshly baked home-made bread, salad, vegetables, fruit, jelly, yoghurt and cookies.

Once you have finished your lunch and your child goes out to play we ask that you exit through the main reception. This will enable us to have time to clean and set up ready for the next sitting.

Please follow the link to give your views on our school lunches. It would be great to hear your feedback. The survey is open until 5th November.

It was lovely to see so many creative designs for our annual pumpkin competition. Thank you to everyone who joined in.

Thank you to Mrs Axten and Robert Miles Club as well as all the staff who helped make our Party such a huge success. We had over 100 children attend and they all had a great time. 

Thank you to Bingham Methodist church and Rev Tim who welcomed us for our Harvest Celebration. It was great to see a packed hall. Mrs Attwood was extremely proud of the children who all sang beautifully. Your donations have been taken to the local foodbank, thank you.

Thank you to everyone who came to our parent/carer meetings this week.

If you were unable to attend please contact your class teacher to arrange a mutually agreeable time.

Children learned all about the charity ‘Young Minds’ as well as ways that they can look after their own wellbeing. Classes took part in relaxation sessions and lessons looking at different emotions. We read a story about filling up our buckets – ask your child for more information!

Thank you to Mrs Tilley for organising.

If you would like to look after our school guinea pigs, Robert and Miles then please contact the office to be added to our list. We are currently looking for someone to take them home for the October half term. Food, bedding and instructions will be provided.

Unfortunately, I have to have to take time off for an operation. This entails at least an 8-week recovery. Mrs Ryan and Mrs Marshall will be stepping up to fill my role while I am off and ensure that school continues to run smoothly. I am terribly sorry to be off this long and I look forward to returning in the new year.
