Dear Parents
Year 6 SATs
Year 6 are to be commended on their positive, mature attitude to their SATs tests, corroborated by the governors who have been present this week checking that procedures for the tests are tight and that the children were able to do their best. Thank you to the Y6 team and all the staff who have worked with the children over the years, we are all very proud of them. Pino, our favourite Ice Cream man has just arrived with a well-deserved special treat for our hard-working Year 6 children … thank you Pino and the Friends who fund it.
Playwriting Star
Last term Grace in Year 4 had written a story called ‘Stargazer’ that was so impressive that she read it to the school in an assembly to inspire us all. Grace had been attending playwriting sessions and took the opportunity to enter a competition run by the RSC. Amazingly she has been shortlisted from 2000 entries down to 71 entries and we await to hear if her play will be one of the 37 selected winners. Well done Grace so far, we will watch with keen interest.

Nursery Key Worker Meetings
It has been a lovely opportunity for the Nursery Key Workers to meet with the parents this week and next week to share the children’s progress – thank you to Mrs Gilkes and the team.
Walk to School Week
Next week is National Walk to School Week. This aims to encourage more people to walk, wheel, scoot or cycle either all or part of the way to school. It will be great to see as many of you as possible taking part in this!
‘The Big Help Out’
Thank you to Joel and Ozias in Year 5 who have helped to cheer up our environment. They cleared out the miserable grey plant pot at the bottom of the slope and planted it up with cheerful, colourful plants. They are a good example of King Charles’ project, ‘The Big Help Out’, volunteering in our community. They will have to keep them well watered and weeded this term!
Let’s hope all our little people ‘Help Out’ at home this weekend ?
