Junior - Weekly email - Friday 11th October

Dear Parents / Carers
 
Thank you to the parents and staff who have been working so hard to tidy and reorganise our school library. This has been a huge task and everyone's help is very much appreciated.
 
Show Racism the Red Card awareness day - children can wear something red (alongside normal school uniform) to raise awareness on Friday 18th October. There will be sessions in class for children but this is not a charity day

Head lice - we are still seeing some cases of head lice across the school - please remember to check your child's hair regularly and treat it if required. We ask that long hair is tied back. NHS info here. Thank you
 
Coats - as the weather is getting colder please can you make sure that your children have school jumpers and coats in school with them. 
 
Lost property - We still have a lot of unlabelled items in school. Please ensure that coats and jumpers are clearly and legibly labelled. Thank you
 
Book donations - we are currently at capacity for books and have no need for additional book donations. Many thanks
 
Our School Amazon Wish List - for any gifts, it is always lovely to know who has donated items so we can thank you properly! The link to the gift list can be found here https://amzn.eu/fVdAqFF.
