Dear Parents/Carers,
It has been lovely to welcome everyone back to school. Our new Reception children thoroughly enjoyed their first induction session and there were lots of smiling faces. We are looking forward to welcoming our nursery children from Tuesday. We will be continuing our Growing Great Learners activities next week with lots of interesting lessons planned.
SCHOOL COMMUNICATION - PLEASE READ!
Please can we ask that ALL parents read this weekly email as it is likely to contain important information for your child. Previously parents have missed out on key pieces of information which have been included on the weekly email.
MEET THE TEACHER EVENINGS
You are invited to meet your class teacher at the times and dates below:
Nursery - 5.00 pm Wednesday 17th September in Nursery
Reception - 5.00 pm Thursday 18th September in Sapphire classroom
Year 1 - 5.45 pm Wednesday 17th September in Emerald classroom

Earrings
Children are not permitted to wear earrings of any kind in school, including retainer earrings. If your child has their ears pierced please ensure that the earrings are taken out prior to coming into school. Children should not have earrings taped over, they must be removed.
Mobile Phones
We would like to remind you that as a school we take safeguarding very seriously and accordingly, it is our policy that mobile phones are not to be used whilst on the school premises. This includes whilst visiting for class reading on Friday.
Please can you ensure that your phone is not just on silent but switched off whilst on site; this is to protect both you and the children.
Break time Snack and Water Bottles
If children are bringing in their own snack from home please can it only be fruit or vegetables. Fruit winders are not permitted.
Water bottles must only contain water, no squash please.
Pick Up from School
If someone else is collecting your child from school please can you contact the school office by midday.
Captiv8 Football Club (PFO)
Please see the attached flyer for more information and how to sign up.
Governing Board
The Governing Board is looking to fill a vacancy with a new governor drawn from current parents and carers. No qualifications are required; you just need common sense, time, enthusiasm and a commitment to working as part of a team to make a difference to the education of all the children at our school. The experience can provide an opportunity to develop a wide range of skills and is both interesting and rewarding. Being a school governor would take on average about 2-3 hours a week of your time, including some meetings in the evenings and some during the school day (a number of employers grant time off for school governor duties). The term of office is four years and full training is provided. This is not an elected position, anyone who applies will be interviewed by a small group of current governors, then the full governing board will take the decision on whom to appoint. To find out more, please email chairofgovernors@csgvillageschool.org.
