Infant - Weekly Email - Friday 15th September

Dear Parent/Carer,

 
Birthday Sweets
Sweets and other foodstuffs for any occasion (eg birthdays, holidays, other celebrations) are no longer allowed to be given out at school. This is due to the increased severity of allergies and potential allergic reactions. Thank you for your understanding.
 
Dogs On/Near Playground
Please can we remind you dogs should not be brought into the playground under any circumstances, including dogs being carried. If you bring your dog along on the walk to and from school they must be tied up away from the school and not to the fence next to the playground. There is a tie ring by the Memorial Hall. If you bring your dog at pick up time you will need to tie the dog up or give it to someone to look after and come into the playground to collect your child. We will not allow children to walk to the gate by themselves. Thank you.
