We would like to say a very big congratulations to them for achieving ‘Good’ in their recent Ofsted report. We know how hard they have all worked to ensure that the pre-school will continue to be a safe and enriching environment for all of the children – well done! News from Mrs Searle and Reception! ‘We had a lovely picnic lunch last Wednesday with most parents attending. We would like to say a big thank you to those who brought a 'bring and share ' lunch'. The staff really appreciated roast chicken and all its accompaniments! Time was spent before the lunch looking at the children's Learning Journey books and sharing the many and varied learning steps that they have made. We know the children and parents will treasure the books which not only reflect their time in Reception but also the progress they have made. We have had a great year with the FS 2 children and know the Year 1 teachers are in for a real treat next year!’ I am sure you would all like to join me in wishing Mrs Searle a very happy and well deserved retirement. Mrs Searle has been with us for 14 years and has worked incredibly hard to ensure that our children have had an amazing start to their school life. Junior School Menu Tuesday, 22 July 2014 prospectus handed out on the Open Evening but if you would like another one, please let the school office know. The cost of a meal at the Junior School will be £2.20 per day in September. Please be aware that we will only supply a dinner if it has been paid for – thank you. If your child is having a school dinner each day, then you can pay weekly at the beginning of the week which means cash or cheque for £11.00. Obviously, we don’t want to be in a position of not feeding your child but if an envelope is completed in the morning without money, then we will call you and ask you to supply a pack lunch. Infant School Menu You will have received a letter explaining about the free meals in September together with a copy of the menu – again if you do not have one, please contact the school office. Thank you for returning our questionnaire to help us plan for September.
