We have a number of plates and storage containers which have been left in school after the cake sale. They are in reception for collection. Thank you.

Christmas Lunch

We know it may seem a long way off yet but the school kitchen have asked if you could let them know if your child would like the Christmas lunch on Wednesday 16th December.  We will put class lists up next week for you or your child to tick their name if they think they would like a lunch on that day.

Cold weather

As the weather looks as though it may be turning colder next week, please could we remind children to bring a coat to school.

Have a good weekend.

Mrs Johnson

Children In Need – Thank you!

Thank you for such a fantastic effort with children’s costumes today and for the donations of cakes, biscuits, sweets and not forgetting donations for not wearing school uniform.  By the end of morning break we had raised over £180 and with more cakes sold after school we raised a grand total of £241.86!  Thank you again for all your support with our fundraising efforts today.

Shoe Boxes

Many thanks for the shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child.  If you are planning on filling a shoe box, these will be collected from school on the morning of Tuesday 17th November.

Swimming Gala

You may have noticed that our area swimming gala is being held next Wednesday at Oswestry.  Originally we were intending on asking some of our Year 4 children to take part but we have such a strong group of swimmers in Year 4 that there simply aren’t enough events for them all to compete in.  Therefore only Years 5 and 6 will be competing this year but we are definitely looking forward to seeing our current Year 4 children taking part next year!

Craft Club

Just a reminder that there is a small charge of £1 a week for children attending Craft Club on Wednesdays.

Arthog

We need to give Arthog the final numbers by Tuesday so please could you return the letter and deposit by Tuesday morning.  If you have any questions, about the visit prior to booking your child’s place, please do not hesitate to speak to myself or Mrs Jones.

Year 5 Brass Forms

If you would like your Year 5 child to take their brass instrument home to practise, please could you return the form to confirm that you have home insurance in place to cover the instrument. Thank you in advance.

Parents’ Evenings

On behalf of all the staff, thank you for your support and comments at Parents’ Evenings this week.  If you were unable to meet with you child’s/children’s teacher/teachers, you are welcome to make an appointment to see them if you have not already done so.

Great Shrewsbury Run

Our grand total raised as a result of last Friday’s run/walk is an incredible £932.60! This is an amazing achievement and we would like to thank the children for their efforts and everyone who sponsored them. If you do still have any sponsor money to send in, please could you do so by Monday 19th at the very latest.

Harvest Celebration Assembly

Next Friday is our Harvest Celebration Assembly and we are looking forward to seeing each class ‘perform’ in front of parents, grandparents and family members. We aim to start at 9:25 and ask you not to park on Bicton Lane, once the school car park is full, but to use the car park at the village hall instead. Thank you in advance for your support with this.

Harvest Donations

If you are able to donate any produce, tinned goods, biscuits etc. for our Harvest Assembly, we would be very grateful.  Items can be left at the school office and will be delivered to St Winefrides soup kitchen next weekend.  Many thanks.
