Attendance

As you are aware our attendance figures have been very low and we are monitoring absences very carefully particularly those who are off on a regular basis. Thank you to all those families who are ensuring that their children are attending each day. The reward of this is that your children will make better progress than those who have a lot of time off school. We are also planning a number of activities to reward the children who have good attendance figures.Miss Rowe’s class won the trophy this week for the best attendance during this week. Well done to them. Extra Golden Time for them!

Year 6

The children have been working hard and the results of their most recent tests demonstrate this. We are proud of all the children in our school as long as they work hard and do as well as they can. Keep up the hard work children and well done.

Sponsorship for Haiti

In response to the disaster in Haiti the School Council organised the biscuit decorating and eating sale and silver coin collection! Thanks to all for your efforts, the total raised was £123.62 As usual we received great support and all the monies raised will be sent directly to the appeal fund.

Ella

Well done to Ella in Year three. She has been competing in trampolining competitions and has achieved some marvellous results. She is heading off in March to compete in the finals of the Nationals having come third in the regional competitions. It is great to see Ella having such ability in a sport that she enjoys so much. We will all be hoping that you do well.
