News
The children have certainly had a really busy week with the disco, The Lion King performance, Netball tournament and a super hero landing!
The Lion King performance was indeed spectacular, made even more so by the collaboration of parents to make the stunning costumes. I wish to thank Jane Hodgson-Lewis, Cath Folkes, Lucy Davis, Lizzie Adams, Rachel Mills, Rachel Lennon, Hayley Brady, Becky Wrightson, Jenny Smith, Janette Nugent, Beata Palewicz and Liv Matty. The cast and parents will enjoy an Oscars evening after the Easter break. Well done all.

Sporting Triumph
The children also took part in a netball tournament in which they were victorious and won.
Clubs
Please note there are no after school clubs next week.
After School Provision
There is no after school provision on Friday 5th April due to the school finishing early.
Early Easter Closing
Can I remind parents that school finishes at 2.00pm for all the children and we would appreciate that you make arrangements to collect your child. The school office will be closed at 2.30pm. We are back on Tuesday 23rd April.
Parents Evenings
A final reminder that there are two parents evenings next week; Tuesday 2nd April 3.30pm- 6.00pm and Wednesday 3rd April 3.30pm- 6.00pm. If you haven’t already booked your appointment times please do so on the boards in the main entrance or phone the school office.
Easter Bonnet Parade
We are very much looking forward to the Easter Bonnet Parade at the start of KS1 assembly on Thursday 4th April at 9.15am. For our new parents who may not have experienced Easter with us before, we encourage every child to make an Easter Bonnet at home which they will wear in a pre-assembly parade in front of parents. The Easter assembly will then be followed by the presentation of the praise trophies.
KS2 Praise Assembly
The KS2 praise assembly is on Friday 5th April at 9.00am.
Community Centre Play Area
Can I please stress with parents/child minders that the Community Centre play area is only for the pre-school children and not a public park. The school children know this area is out of bounds to them and by some parents/child minders taking children in this area after school they are encouraging the children to break the school rules. The climbing apparatus is not suitable for older children. Our insurance does not cover public use.
Rags to Riches
Thank you for your donations of clothes we raised £94.00.
Staff Leaving
A reminder that Mr Scorer’s last school day with us is on Monday 1st April. He will be taking up the position as Headteacher at Greatfield Primary School in Cheltenham.
Miss Armstrong will also be leaving us for pastures new at a primary school in Cheltenham. Miss Armstrong’s last day will be Friday 5th April.
I am sure you will join with me to wish them both every success.
