Dear Parents / Carers
 
We hope that children have enjoyed the tennis taster sessions at the CSG Tennis Club this week. Those that were missed due to the rain have been rescheduled. Many thanks to their tennis coach James Martin for running these sessions.


SEN questionnaire - Thank you to those who have taken the time to share their views on the SEN provision at our school. If you have not yet completed the questionnaire but are happy to share your views, Mrs Bannister would really appreciate your contribution.

  
Year 4 MTC - Information for Year 4 parents about the 2023 Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) is available here
School Photo orders - the ordering deadline for free delivery to school has been extended to Monday 21st November. If you order after this date, a delivery charge will apply.
 
PTA Pop up Christmas Shop for children - on Friday 16th December the PTA will once again be running a Christmas Shop during the afternoon, where the children can pick their own pre-paid small gifts for their family and even their pets! Children will have the opportunity to visit the shop and choose their gifts during the school day on Friday 16th December. The PTA has asked that all orders be placed by Friday 25th November, to allow them time to buy a selection of gifts.
