Welcome back to the new year in school!
I hope you all managed to get some time off to enjoy the summer and are looking forward to the next few months. Obviously, the building work is still ongoing – but we are very hopeful that the Little Herons will be moving into their new accommodation early next week! The new classroom, where the old conservatory was, is due for completion at half-term – frustratingly!
School is back to normal with the Juniors attending the County Show next week, and Class 4 will be away on a residential from September 24th (details to follow).
County Show
Next Thursday (11th September), the children in Classes 2, 3 and 4 will be travelling to the Westmorland County Show. We are leaving at 9:30 am and will be back by the end of the school day. Children will need to be in school uniform with appropriate footwear, plus waterproofs/sun hats and sun cream depending on the weather. They will also need to bring a packed lunch and a water bottle.
If any parents wish to take their children independently on either Wednesday or Thursday, then that is absolutely fine! Just let us know.
We love having volunteers in school to help with anything at all! If you, or anyone in your family, feels you have an hour or even a morning spare and would like to help in school, then please just speak to any member of staff. This can be from listening to children read; helping with a display, helping in a lesson or even gardening – the list is endless…!
Don’t forget the PTA cake raffle every Friday – only 50p!
If you have any questions or queries, then please see me at any time.
Best wishes,
Simon Brabant
