Communication – Arbor

From next week our main communication to parents/carers will be through Arbor using the app instant message which will be similar to the previous text message service. Our website and Facebook page will continue to be used as additional forms of communication alongside Arbor.

 Please ensure you have set up your account by next week in order to receive communication from school.

If you are experiencing any issues with setting up your account, please get in touch with the school office and we shall do our best to help.

Year 6 Spring Term

There will be changes to PE days for the Spring Term.

Tuesday afternoon – athletics (outdoor)
Friday afternoon – Crossbar (outdoor)

Please remember to wear correct PE kit. A reminder that on the first week back Mrs Arthurs’ class will have their swimming assessment on the Tuesday afternoon and will need to bring their swimming kit. We require your consent to take children and this can be found on ParentPay.

Please also consult ParentPay regarding our planned trip to Shrewsbury Prison on 29th January.

Homework has been stuck in today, but this is for the first week back and does not need to be completed over the holiday.

The whole Year 6 team would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Super writing!

Well done to Isla for the brilliant use of figurative language in her character description this week. She secured the Christmas glasses for the day as a reward!
