It has been great to enjoy a little sunshine this week - it finally feels like spring is here! It has been especially lovely to see the children enjoying the new Well Being Sensory Garden outside; staff have commented on how wonderful the area is, how much the children are engaged and how calming it is. Thank you so much to all who donated to the PTA to fund this and to all of the parents who were actively involved in designing and creating this fabulous space! THANK YOU!! This morning we welcomed a representative from the NSPCC who came to talk to parents about Online Safety. She provided a really useful update for parents and reinforced some of the key messages about how to keep your children safe online. There is further information on the NSPCC website about risks and how to start having conversations about Online Safety with your children. You can also sign up to their Newsletter by following the link. NSPCC ONLINE SAFETY INFORMATION
Have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend! Lets hope the sunshine makes an appearance! |
Parking! We have received another letter from a local resident this week expressing their ongoing frustrations with parents and carers parking disrespectfully, blocking driveways and sadly being rude and aggressive when challenged. Please be respectful at all times to everyone in the community. It is never ok to block driveways ....even if you will just be a few minutes! Residents need access to their properties at all times. |
YEAR 2 LEAVERS' BOOK All Y2 parents should have received a letter outlining our plans to produce a commemorative yearbook featuring photographs as well as your child's best memories of their time at the school.
