Climb Against Cancer update

We just wanted to give you a quick update on our ‘Climb for Cancer’ fundraiser. We are delighted with the donations so far and are excited to see what the final amount will be; we are on track to reach our target. On Friday 27th September, we will be holding a Macmillan Grandparents’ Tea Party as a final celebratory event. Following this event, we will announce the final amount which we have raised as a school and community. More information on timings and how to purchase tickets will be shared shortly with you all.

Many thanks for your continued support,

Miss Cook

 

Site Access

 

 Dear Parents/Carers,

I have now completed a site walk and can update you concerning access.

The top gate and top car park will remain closed as the work is completed. We anticipate this to be for approximately 4 weeks.

The main gate and the gate by the Year 6 classrooms will be open. We are also temporarily opening the double gates to the rear of the reception outdoor play area.

This will mean that we have a route open that goes right around the school and therefore everyone will be able to get where they need to be.

Teachers and Teaching Assistants will be visible to help with finding the correct classes. We will also have a good number of other staff outside to assist.

With the top car park being out of action, we are going to have to prioritise staff parking on site for this short time. This will mean our visitor car park will mainly be full of staff cars. We are leaving the 3 disabled spaces free and the 3 spaces next to them free for our visitors and for blue badge holders.

We are concerned about breakfast club drop off time as we know this is a time that this car park is used significantly. Please make alternative arrangements if you can for this short period of time. It is unavoidable and I can assure you that the contractors are working really hard to finish the work as quickly as they can.

Thank you for your understanding.

Regards,

Miss Cook

We would also like to remind you of our pupil booklet, which can be found below on our class page. It would be great to spend a little time ahead of Tuesday, looking through this with your child to help prepare them.
