I hope you are all well. We’ve had a wonderfully busy and positive week in school, and I think children and staff are ready for the half term holiday!

A huge thank you to everyone who supported our Valentine’s Disco. It was a brilliant event, full of fun and energy, and it was lovely to see the children enjoying themselves. We are very grateful to FOBs for organising this event for us.

We have also had visits a plenty this week! Willow and Birch welcomed the Imam from Craven Arms Mosque, and Oak Class had a wonderful opportunity to meet author M.G. Leonard this week. It was an inspiring session, sparking lots of excitement about reading and writing. We would like to extend a special thank you to Adcote School for kindly inviting us and providing transport for the visit.  Another visit came from Reverend Dave who worked with our Worship Council to help make our school more dementia friendly.  We were also pleased to welcome Julia Buckley MP into school this week. She spent time meeting groups of children and hearing about issues in our local area. The children were engaged, curious, and excellent ambassadors for our school.

A Polite Reminder About Communication
As always, we strive to maintain open, positive, and respectful communication between school and home. Please may we remind parents and carers to communicate politely with staff at all times—whether in person, by phone, or via email. We are all working together for the benefit of your children, and respectful dialogue helps us achieve the best outcomes for them.

Thank you, as ever, for your continued support and have a wonderful half term.

Mrs Mavin
