Dear Parents / Carers

 

We hope that everyone enjoyed the Interhouse Diamond Cricket yesterday morning. Thank you to Mr O'Sullivan and the Amersham School Sports Partnership for running this event. 
 
It has been a colourful day in school today with lots of fabulous costumes for the Walk4Art Sponsored walk today. Your support and your donations for this event are very much appreciated.
 
Thank you to the PTA for providing the hot dog lunch yesterday.

This will begin at 8.35am in Acacia class and we would like to invite the children in as close to this time as possible. They will be given a drink and a biscuit and will have the chance to chat with their friends and relax before we begin each morning. Entrance via Parsonage Road gate only at this time

Music lessons - no music lessons during the mornings Monday to Thursday this week due to SATS - regular timetable is here
