We are in desperate need of some willing volunteers to help us cut back and tidy up our forest school area so that the space can be fully used and enjoyed.  If you would like to help, please bring along some gardening equipment (wheelbarrows, pruning shears etc!) from 9am on the 12th October.  FOBs will be providing bacon baps, teas and coffees!

We are on the look out for parents/carers to join our Friends of Bicton team!

Friends of Bicton School (FOBS) is a registered charity (No. 1093376) run by volunteers to raise valuable funds that benefit the school and nursery.  This can be helping to organise an event, run a stall, or by simply coming along to support one of our functions. It is a great opportunity to meet other parents and help contribute towards resources and facilities to benefit your child or children during their time at Bicton CE Primary School and Nursery.

We would like to invite you to a tea/coffee social morning on Friday 27th September from 9am to come and find out a bit more about how you could help.

If you are not able to attend but are still interested in joining, please contact Sam Horton on 07816226774.

What a brilliant first full week back in school we have had, topped off with a day celebrating Roald Dahl today!

I have been so impressed with the way the children have been coming into school in the mornings.  We have had so many happy faces and punctuality and attendance has been excellent – thank you all very much for your support with this.  The children have all settled well into their new classes and or/new teachers and support staff.  I have been particularly impressed with our 7 new reception children, they have made an excellent start to their school life.

Class Newsletters are available on the ‘Classrooms’ area of our school website.  These will give you a helpful overview of what your child will be learning in school and ways in which you can support us at home.  Teachers will continue to share photos and updates via Class Dojo and the school website so please check regularly.   A quick reminder that the easiest way to get a message to a class teacher is via admin@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk.  Class teachers do not monitor messages on Class Dojo.

Have a lovely weekend,

Mrs Mavin
