Head Lice – Reminder

Following last week’s newsletter, please could we ask you to check your child’s/children’s hair for head lice.  We are aware that some children in school have needed treatment again this week, after also needing treatment last week. Thank you in advance for your support with this.

KS2 Cross Country

Several KS2 children expressed an interest in taking part in the final event in The Corbet’s cross country league on Monday 16th after school.   If your child is taking part, please return reply slips on Monday morning (if you have not done so already) so that we have an idea of numbers. Thank you

Quick Sticks Hockey

Well done to the group of children who competed in the hockey tournament at The Corbet earlier this week. Mrs J was very proud of you!

Morning Routines

Now that things are back to normal, and the children are entering their classroom through the infant playground in the morning, just to clarify that we would prefer for children to go into class straightaway when they arrive and not to stay out on the playground.  During the autumn term we found that children settled much quicker and it prepared them for the day ahead by going straight into class so we are keen to continue this.  If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to speak to me or your child’s class teacher (s).

Allergy Forms

Thank you for the allergy forms returned to date.  We will presume that children for whom we have not received a form do not have any allergies.

Year 5 Bikeability

Please could the Bikeability letters be returned as soon as possible.

Pantomime – Advance Notice

We have booked seats for all classes to see the pantomime at Theatre Severn in December.  We thought we’d mention it now just in case you were super organised and decided to buy tickets yourself!  A letter regarding costs and times etc will be sent out in September.

Snow

In the event of bad weather, please check to see if the School is open before travelling to the site. This can be done by:

• Checking the school website
• Listening to BBC Radio Shropshire 96.00 FM for the list of school closures
• Checking the list of school closures on www.shropshire.gov.uk

If the school is closed, we will try and make a decision as early as possible and will intend to re-open as soon as we can. Please refer to the snow and bad weather guidance in the public area of our school website (Policies page) for more information.

Have a good weekend.

Mrs Johnson
