School and Nursery Closed Friday 2nd March

Due to the deteriorating weather conditions, and the forecast for this evening and tomorrow, we have made the decision to close School and Nursery now in order to give you sufficient time to make alternative childcare arrangements. Thank you.

School Opening

Please keep an eye on the school website and Shropshire Council website on Friday morning to check if the school is open.  We will make the decision as early as possible on Friday morning if we need to close.

Open as normal – Thursday 1st March

Just to confirm that School and Nursery are open as normal today – Thursday 1st March.

Class 4 homework

Apologies for the confusion of homework set this week…the homework that was set before half term is due in tomorrow please.  Many have handed this in already, thank you. The play script homework that was set on Monday is due in next Wednesday (March 7th).  If there are any questions about this or you need a copy please ask me. In future, homework will be set on a Friday and due in the following Wednesday as usual.

I also asked the children if they have a copy of their favourite book at home if they could bring it in tomorrow please for World Book Day. Please don’t worry if they don’t have one.

Many thanks, Mrs Thomas

Mardi Gras instruments

The Class have been looking at and sharing their instruments today. Some have used our junk modelling to make more.

Forest school and tennis session dates

Due to the bad weather we have taken the decision to postpone the start of Forest School to the 15th of March.  The children will still get the planned 5 sessions as we will continue after the Easter break.

We do however have another treat for the class.  This Friday and the following 2 Fridays the children in class 1 will take part in some tennis coaching sessions.  We will send your child’s PE kit home with them, so that they can come into school wearing their PE kit on a Friday am.  We will continue to have PE on a Monday afternoon, so please send their kit back in on a Monday morning.

Thursday 1st March:   World Book Day – come to school dressed as a character

World Book Day

Dear Parents/Carers,

I have asked the children to bring in one of their favourite books from home on Thursday for World Book Day so that we can spend some time talking about them as a class.

Thank you,

Miss Barratt

Changes to Clubs

In response to parents’ requests, we are starting a Homework Club next Monday for Key Stage 2 children; this will run instead of Science Club.  At Homework Club, children will be able to complete any homework set by their class teacher, as well as read with an adult or carry out revision or research linked to what they have been doing in class.

We are currently monitoring attendance at all clubs and we will reduce the clubs that are provided, if we find that some are no longer viable.

Year 6 SATs Booster

Year 6 SATs Booster will run every Monday from 26th February from 3:15 to 4:30 and we hope that all Year 6 children will be able to attend. A parent meeting will be arranged before Easter, to provide information on the SATs which take place in May.

World Book Day – Reminder

As in previous years, we are taking part in World Book Day next week on Thursday 1st March.  Children can come to school dressed up as a book character of their choice and there will be a prize for each class, including Nursery, for the best costume. We can’t wait to see who or what the children dress up as!

We hope you have had a good half-term and we look forward to seeing all the children again on Monday 26th.
