Spaghetti Maths will not be on Monday 4th July as some children are performing in the Brass Extravaganza at Theatre Severn. The last session will now be on Monday 11th July.

FOBS will be selling bacon rolls during the break of the morning session.  The price will be £2.00 and they will need to be ordered by 10.00 am from the refreshment stand.

We look forward to seeing you all there.

Sports Day- Tuesday 21st June 2016

Just a reminder that next Tuesday is our Sports Day, providing it does not rain! Should the grass be too wet, we will make the decision to cancel as early as we can and send out a tweet/put a post on the website.  Fingers crossed we will still be able to go ahead so children will need to bring a drink and sunhat and remember to wear/bring to school their coloured t-shirt.  Our reserve date is still Thursday 23rd June.

The kitchen will be serving a picnic-style lunch consisting of pizza (vegetarian option available), hot-dog, chips/pasta, a cookie and a bottle of water. You are more than welcome to bring your own packed lunch and join us. Please could we remind people to use the village hall car park and not block Bicton Lane.  Thank you.

Well done and thank you

On behalf of all the staff, we would like to say well done again to the Year 2 and 6 children who have worked so hard in the lead up to their SATs and during the tests.  The children’s positive attitude in school and the desire to do well has been wonderful to observe and has made us all very proud of them.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the children at home and also to the rest of the school who have done their best to move around the school quietly during the tests!

School uniform

We have a growing pile of lost property in the corridor, with a range of uniform that is unnamed.  Please could you check that all of your child’s uniform is labelled. Thank you.
