Headteacher's Welcome
Welcome Back! I hope you have all had a fantastic Easter break. The recent sunshine has certainly been very welcome! The children have returned happy, well rested and ready to learn which is brilliant. It has been a particularly exciting week for our Kangaroos and Turtles classes who have been to Conisbrough Castle - their first school trip ever! They had an amazing day and the rest of the Y1 and Y2 classes are looking forward to their visits next week. We will share some photos of all the class visits next week. Parent Drop Ins Next Week We are looking forward to welcoming you into school next week for our informal parent drop in sessions. This will be an opportunity for you to see your child's classroom, look at their books and see any work displayed in classrooms - we are sure your child will love showing you around and sharing their fantastic work with you. Classrooms will be open from the end of the school day until 5:00pm.

Summer Fayre - Would you like to join us next week to plan this exciting event?
The PTA is starting to think about this year's Summer Fayre which we are really hoping will go ahead after school on 24th June. Many of you won’t have had the opportunity to be involved in the summer fayre but it is a really lovely occasion, is great fun for the children and is a really good way to raise money for the school. For the year 2 children it will be their only opportunity to experience this event. We have had an initial meeting but a small group of us is gathering again via Zoom on 27th April at 7.45pm, to talk further about the fayre and would love it if more people feel able to be involved to help organise the event. If you did not necessarily want to attend meetings but are happy to support in organising the fayre there are some specific roles that need doing such as organising the raffle, organising the prizes for the games and organising the strawberries and cream stall, and we would be delighted if people could take on these roles. We will need an enormous number of volunteers to help on the day and we will be asking for people to sign up for this nearer the time. The fayre is a wonderful event but it can’t go ahead without people to help organise it and to help on the day.
If you are interested in helping in any capacity please email the pta inbox nethergreeninfantschoolp
