We are looking forward to holding Year 1– Year 6 sports day on Friday 12th July. The event will start at 1pm and will be held on KHV111 school field again this year. Please put the date in your diary.
The reception children will enjoy a separate sports session on the playground on a separate morning.
This year we will be continuing to support the Book Trust in their campaign to get all children reading! On Thursday 23rd May we will be inviting children in Years 1-6 to wear comfy clothes and bring their favourite book to share. We would welcome a donation of £1. Money raised will be shared between the Book Trust and our school chosen charity -Earlsdon Library.
Reception children will be celebrating 35 years of Elmer on this day and are invited to wear colourful clothes to school on Thursday 23rd May.
Donations of £1 for the previously mentioned charities, will be gratefully received.
We are hoping that lots of Earlsdon children sign up to take part in this fun annual run at the Memorial Park on Sunday 9th June.
Please return reply slips by Monday 20th May so we can enrol everyone before the booking deadline!
We have a very exciting event on Saturday. Our Coventry Young Ambassadors will be taking over the running of St Mary's Guildhall. Please take the opportunity to visit this fantastic historic building next to the cathedral. Go CV card rates apply to all Earlsdon families, including free entrance for families eligible for Pupil Premium.
We were invited by Sky Blues to take a group of children to a very special event last week. The lucky children got to play football on the Coventry City football pitch! The children said that it was the best afternoon ever!
We will be holding a parent workshop next week in school on Tuesday 21st May at 5pm.
The session will be led by West Midlands Police and will focus on raising parents awareness of the dangers and possible consequences of children accessing the internet if appropriate safety measures and monitoring are not put in place. The session is extremely relevant and important for all primary school parents as school and West Midlands Police are seeing an increase in primary school age children getting involved with things online or accessing things they shouldn’t.
Throughout the session PCSO Chater will give tips and strategies that parents can use to make the online space a safer place for their children. Some of the topics included in the parents workshop are listed below:
· Apps and appropriate ages
· Children sharing inappropriate images
· Gaming
· Grooming and Radicalisation
· The dark web
· Settings
· Digital footprint
Please email school by Monday at 3pm to let us know if you will be attending so that we can decide if we need to set up the hall or can use a classroom for this event. Thank you
It has been lovely to enjoy some sunny weather this week– fingers crossed this continues through the term! Please help the children to be ready for the day by sending them to school with a named sunhat and water bottle. (Please also double check that school sweatshirts and cardigans are named as the children often take them off when they are on the playground and it is difficult to return an unnamed jumper to the correct child!) In addition, please apply sun cream at home in the morning before com?ing to school. Thank you for your ongoing support.
Thank you to all the families who joined us on Saturday at our allotment open morning. The sun shone and we had a lovely time planting seeds for the RHS Big Sow and enjoying coffee and cakes. Thank you to the volunteers who ran this event
It was fantastic to welcome nearly 3000 visitors to our school on the May Bank Holiday to take part in different sports tasters including sitting volleyball, wheelchair tennis, boccia, parkour, boxercise and table tennis. The highlight of the day was a visit from Perry, the Com?monwealth Games 2022 mascot, who presented some of our pupils with prizes for their winning art work. Thank you to the PTA and our Changemakers for all their hard work.
We were very pleased to be asked by the LTA to organise and run the West Midlands Deaf Awareness Week Tennis Festival. We welcomed over 100 young people to this event many of whom were deaf or had auditory processing conditions. The children had the opportunity to join in a wide range of tennis activities and to meet Cathy Fletcher, the LTA Deaf Tennis Coach. Well done to our sports leaders who helped to run some of the activities.
