Children in Need – Friday 17th November

Get your pyjamas or spotty outfit at the ready for Children In Need on Friday 17th November. If children don’t want to wear pyjamas or spots, they could wear something that will make others smile! We ask that all children pay £1.00 donation towards the charity which they can bring into school or pay via our JustGiving page – click here to donate.

We’d also welcome donations of cakes or biscuits for our breaktime cake sale – nothing containing nuts please – and, if sending in homemade products, please attach a list of ingredients.  Children can bring money in to buy a cake and we will then pay in the monies raised to our JustGiving account. Thank you in advance for your support!

Remembrance Sunday plans

Dear Friends,
As we approach Remembrance Sunday (12th November), I thought I’d let you know of our services around Severn Loop. Please note the earlier start time at Bicton and Shrawardine, and the Festival of Remembrance at Fitz (to which all are warmly invited). You are most welcome at any of our services. 

9am- Bomere (Holy Communion with an Act of Remembrance)
9.30am- Montford (Holy Communion with an Act of Remembrance)
10.45am- Bicton– A Service of Remembrance, led by Steve Jones (Padre of our local branch of the Royal British Legion)
10.45am- Leaton– A Service of Remembrance, with the local Scouts in attendance, followed by Acts of Remembrance at the War Memorial and Preston Gubbals
10.50am- Shrawardine– A Service of Remembrance
5.30pm- Fitz– A Festival of Remembrance with the Yeoman Singers
Many of our churches have beautiful poppy displays to mark the occasion. At Montford, there is a Poppy Path set up in the churchyard- do go along and see it. Here is a (rather windswept!) video of it as well:
Finally, in Bomere Heath there will be an Act of Remembrance at 11am on Saturday, 11th November, outside the Methodist Chapel- do gather there about ten minutes before.
With love and blessings,

Multiskills sports club Year 3 to Year 6

We only have a couple of children booked onto multiskills sports club so we are offering a free taster session this Thursday. Please let the school office know if you would like your child to attend so they can be added to the register.

For the children who have already booked on, Mrs Neal will refund the cost of this week’s session to your child’s sQuid account.

No smoking or vaping

As you are aware, smoking is not permitted anywhere on the school site including in cars on the school car park.  This also includes vaping. If a family member or other adult is collecting your child from school or nursery, please make them aware of these rules.

We thank you in advance for your cooperation.
