School Disco – 14th February

With reference to the school disco, FOBs would like you to disregard request for parent attendance, but if you are happy to help please contact a FOBs member.

Class 2 Cake Sale

As part of our Maths unit, over the next weeks Class 2 are going to plan and hold a cake sale on Thursday 13th Febuary at break time. All children are welcome to bring money to buy cakes that will cost about 20p. We hope to use the money raised to buy some new costumes for our role play area.

Many thanks,

Mrs Chadwick

Reporting an Absence

If your child is unwell and will not be in School, please could we remind parents and carers to phone School before 9:30 a.m. or, if you are bringing a sibling to School, please inform your child’s teacher or the Office.

Many thanks.

Mr and Mrs Conde’s New Arrival!

Just to let you know that Mrs Conde had a baby girl, Harriet Elizabeth, on Wednesday afternoon weighing 6lb 14 (and a little bit!) Mum and baby are doing really well and went home this afternoon.

We pass on our best wishes and congratulations on behalf of everyone at Bicton School.

Weekly Newsletter 17.01.14

Children have had another busy week and we thank you for your support helping your child with homework, spellings, reading and for any special activities planned by individual classes.

We hope you are making full use of the School website, which we are very proud of, to check what is going on or coming up in your child’s class, read about and see photos of what your child has been learning this week and check the calendar for details on clubs, trips, etc. There is an expectation on us to limit printing as much as possible and the website has had a positive impact on how we communicate with yourselves.

If you do not have access to the Internet, however, please speak to Mrs Jones or Mrs Neal at the Office and they will arrange for a weekly newsletter to be sent home with your child.

Swapping Toys

We seem to have a lot of children bringing in toys from home which they are then giving away or swapping with other children.  Teachers have spoken to children about this not being allowed but we would be grateful if you could reinforce this message at home; often children swap toys and then ask for the toy back which can sometimes end in a disagreement or even tears!

Whilst we do not want to stop children from bringing in toys to play with at break times, we would prefer them not to bring in anything which could get broken when children are playing outside.

Thank you in advance for your help with this.

Craft Club

Mrs Hughes would like any clean, empty Muller corner yoghurt pots for her craft club.  She would appreciate them asap.

Lost Uniform

Please could you check that your child has not come home in any items of clothing which belong to another child, as we have a couple of children who have mislaid sweatshirts in the last week (both of which are labelled with their names.)  If you could also check that your child’s uniform is labelled at the same time, we would be very grateful.

Many thanks for your support.

Head Lice

We have been made aware that there are a couple of cases of head lice in school at the moment. Could we please ask that you check your child’s/children’s hair carefully and use appropriate treatment if you find that your child is affected before they return to school.   

There are leaflets available at the Office with the latest information on how to treat for head lice but if you have any queries or questions please do not hesitate to speak to myself or another member of staff.

Thank you for your support.

Mrs Johnson
