Gardening Party Saturday 10th June

Can you spare a few hours this weekend on Saturday 10th June? If so, we would love you to join us at our next gardening party.

We still have lots of fences to be painted (weather-permitting) and some of the play equipment to be reinstalled, as well as plenty of other jobs, so your help is much needed. If you would like to take part in the event on 10th June, please could you sign the contact list in reception or speak to myself or Catherine Orrell.  We are not sure yet if there will be refreshments, as we know that several of the FOBS ladies are unavailable on Saturday, but we will let you know later in the week.

Our aim is to finish as much as possible this weekend so that the children can start to enjoy the wildlife garden before the end of term!

Thank you in advance for your support.

Nursery/Class 1 outdoor area

Please could we stress that the area outside Class 1 and Nursery is not to be used after school under any circumstances.  The equipment, apparatus and resources are there for children in Nursery and Class 1 to use with staff present and not for children to use after 3:15.  Thank you.

Arthog Consent Forms

If you have not already done so, please can you return your child’s Arthog consent form on Monday 5th June.  Even if your child does not take any medication, we still need the Telford and Wrekin Consent Form completing as it is a requirement of Arthog.

Concord College – Choir event

If you are planning on attending the choir competition at Concord College, we have been informed by the organisers that adults watching must arrive by 9:45 as they are not permitting anyone to enter once the performances start. This is to ensure that the children performing are not distracted.

We hope you have a good half-term break and we return to school on Monday 5th June.

N-CAT Research Study – Years 3 to 6

We are expecting a representative from Reading University in school next Thursday to meet with the children for whom we have received completed surveys and parental permission forms.  If you would still like your child to take part, please return the survey and permission form by Tuesday 23rd. We still have a few surveys at the school office if you have mislaid the original information pack.

Class 4 Visit to Liverpool

Please can all remaining permission slips and outstanding contributions be returned by Tuesday 23rd. We rely on parents’ voluntary contributions towards trips such as this and without them School does not have the funds available to arrange class visits.

Gardening Day – THANK YOU!

Thank you to everyone who came along and helped at the gardening day on Saturday.  It was a fantastic day and, thanks to all the groundwork, gardening and painting that was done, the wildlife garden is really taking shape.  One more day should do it!

Thank you to FOBs for serving refreshments throughout the day, to the Co-op for their generous donations and to people who brought along cakes and snacks to keep everyone going.

Gardening Party Saturday 13th May

Are you free for a few hours on Saturday 13th May?  If so, we would love you to join us at our next ‘all hands on deck’ gardening party!

We still have lots of planting to do, fences to be painted and play equipment to be reinstalled, as well as plenty of other jobs, so your help is much needed.  If you would like to take part in the event on 13th May, please could you sign the contact list in reception or speak to myself or one of the FOBS committee.  We would like to know who is coming so we can prepare the tasks and organise refreshments.

Even if you weren’t able to join us at our previous gardening day a few weeks ago, you may remember seeing the photos on the website and it really was a fantastic and very productive day for all those involved. We are hoping that this next event will help us finish as much as possible in the wildlife garden so that the children can start to enjoy it!

Thank you in advance for your support.
