KS1 Nativity- Beep Beep Bethlehem

Wow! What a wonderful day it has been!

All of the adults are so proud of the children for their fantastic singing, dancing and acting.

Once again, thank you for supporting the children by helping with their costumes and also helping them learn the lines/ words to songs.

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy spending time with your families.

Thanks for your continued support.

Curriculum Governors Involvement in School

The Curriculum Committee Governors met on the 11th December 2024. The enjoyed listening to the Upper Phase Leader talk about her role and the impact she has across Year 5 & 6.

They viewed the new Pupil Premium Strategy and questioned the lead on expenditure and the impact expected over the year.

As ever, the Governors really enjoyed talking to the children about their learning. This time, the theme was Religious Education. The Governors agreed that the children all enjoy this subject and were able to confidently articulate their learning so far this year and from previous years.

Finally, the Governors spent time looking at parent and pupil voice information linked to our Breakfast and Afterschool club. Governors were reassured that the offer we have is robust and looked on favourably by both parents and children. During the next meeting Governors are going to look at our Science curriculum.

Y1 & Y2 Nativity – this Friday

We cannot wait for parents and family to see our Y1/2 Nativity this Friday. We kindly ask that if you have a pushchair, or a young child, that you sit towards the back of the hall or at the side as this would make it easier for you should you need to pop out if they become unsettled.

 

Thank you

Parent View

Dear Parents/Carers,

As a school we are very proud to deliver the highest quality of education for your child, along with offering them all of the additional experiences that we feel make our school so unique. We never become complacent and are always striving to further improve what we do.

One of the many ways that you can support us is through completing the annual Ofsted questionnaire – ‘Parent View’. This would only take you five-minutes and would be invaluable to us in knowing what we continue to do well and what, if anything needs a tweak!

If you are unsure about any of the questions, rather than clicking the ‘don’t know option’, please visit our school website to find out more information or ask a member of the team before completing the survey. Please also find attached a reminder of our feedback from our Parent Survey from the summer term.

Please let us know if you would prefer to complete this survey in school or if not, follow the link below.

Free School Meals

Dear Parents/Carers,

We already have many families who enjoy the benefits after applying for Free School Meals and we urge you to reconsider if you meet the criteria listed below.

By applying for Free School Meals, very often parents think it is all directly linked to school dinners- it isn’t! If you qualify for Free School Meals, it also means that you are entitled to significantly reduced prices for school trips, breakfast clubs and after school clubs. There are many other benefits that your child could directly receive to potentially support them at home and if needed, with their learning at school.

Families with children in years Reception up to Year 6 can apply for Free School Meals if they are entitled to certain benefits and have an annual income of £16,190 or below.

Please follow the below link as this will take you to the Telford & Wrekin website where you are able to access more information and download an application form which will be sent directly to the team. Or alternatively, speak to a member of staff in the school office for support in applying.

The Polar Express

Year One all had a fantastic time on the Polar Express. We did lots of exciting things! We went on a big coach, had a snowball fight, went to look at the engine on the steam train, travelled on the Polar Express, listened to a story, ate cookies, drank hot chocolate, danced, sang and had a visit from SANTA! It was all great fun.

Take a look at some of our pictures from the day.
