Reception Parents’ Evenings Next Week – Information

Reception Parents’ evenings are being held after school next week on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.

You should have now received your time slot slip in your child’s reading diary to confirm your appointment.

On the day of your appointment, please enter and exit through the gates situated near the Reception classrooms/Reception outdoor area and then enter the building via the blue door to the left of Miss Hailey’s classroom (where the lost property box is located.)

If you arrive to your appointment a few minutes early, your child’s books will be located outside their classroom door along the corridor to give you the opportunity to have a look through at their wonderful work prior to your appointment.

We look forward to meeting with you next week.

Reminder – Halloween Events

Dear Parents/Carers,

We will be holding a Halloween School Event on Friday 25th October after lunch. Children must come into school in their school uniform. They will then be able to change into their Halloween outfits or simply dress down after lunch (please label all items). Staff will be running a disco in the hall and carrying out Halloween fun events in the classroom. Children will go home in their outfits.

We appreciate that not all parents want their children to take part in Halloween events. If that is the case, please do let your child’s teacher know through the home school communication book. We will prepare something non-Halloween themed for them to enjoy.

Due to the Y6 trip and Y5 swimming on this day, they will have their Halloween event the day before on Thursday 24th October.

Kind regards

Miss Cook

Parents Evenings

Reception’s parents’ evening is the week beginning Monday 11th November. Paper letters were sent home last week with the children. If you haven’t filled in the form please do so and return to your child’s teacher.

Y1-6 parent’s evenings will be during the week beginning Monday 2nd December. Please note that we have reverted back to our old system for arranging appointments. For the last couple of years, we have used an online booking system. This system came with an annual subscription of £1,000, which was used only twice a year. Due to tighter budgets this year, we have decided to move back to our old system (paper letters) and put the £1,000 towards subsidising for trips and visits.

 

Many thanks
