Junior - Weekly email - Friday 12th May

Dear Parents / Carers
 
It has been a busy week in school with Year 6 SATS and Year 5 CATS, Mini Enterprise planning work, a Year 3 Tennis Festival and a netball match amidst the sunshine and showers.

Well done to Year Six for their positive attitudes towards their SATs this week, they have been focused and extremely resilient and they should be very proud of themselves, as are we. They were a credit to their parents and our school.

Congratulations to our winners in the Misbourne Matins Rotary IT Competition, Archie in Year 3, Alayna and Lois in Year 6 all won prizes and have been presented with their certificates in school today,
 
Congratulations also to the netball team who won in their matches against St Mary's in Beaconsfield - we won on aggregate 10-5 over 2 games.
 
The PTA are running a second hand uniform after school today and some Year 6s are holding a charity cake sale on the top playground.
 
Year 6 Mini Enterprise request - Year 6 are working hard preparing their products for sales in school next week. Some of the groups would really appreciate donations of crisp packets, Prime bottles and cardboard tubes (kitchen roll or wrapping paper but not toilet roll tubes). There are some collection boxes in the dining hall.
 
Zebra Crossing on Deanway - The Parish Council have managed to get the zebra crossing on Deanway reassessed and it now qualifies for a school crossing patrol. This is fantastic news, but now they need someone to take on this role - see flyer hereMore information on the Parish Council website https://www.chalfontstgiles-pc.gov.uk/2023/05/school-crossing-patrol-needed/
