Dear Parents
Welcome back and Happy New Year! You will have no doubt
heard that 2015 started out in fairly unusual circumstances
with a whole school evacuation whilst a gas leak was
identified and fixed. Whilst I wouldn’t choose to start the
year that way, it did demonstrate that everyone involved
could think quickly, make good decisions and stay safe. This
is reassuring should any other out of the ordinary events
occur!
FRENCH ASSISTANT
On Monday we welcome Barbara Reboullet from Agen who
will be working in our classes for the next fortnight. You can
read a little more about her on our new website.
READING INFORMATION EVENING
There will be a reading information evening for parents on
Monday 19th January at 6pm. We will share information
about the teaching of reading at Luckwell and ways you can
support your children. There will also be information on
reading for pleasure.
RECEPTION ADMISSIONS
If your child was born between 1 September 2010 and 31
August 2011 you need to apply for a school place by 15 January
2015. Ffi www.bristol.gov.uk/schooladmissions.
PARENTS’ FORUM
We held the first of this year’s parents’ forums (fora?)
yesterday. There was very interesting discussion around a
range of issues, from EZY pay to how we will celebrate Bristol’s
successful Green Capital bid in 2015. Full notes will be
published on the website by next Thursday.
There are two more forums scheduled in 2015:
18 March at 6.00pm & 8 June at 2.00pm
