Please put the date in your diary for the annual World Book Day. We work hard to promote a love of reading for pleasure throughout the school year and will be celebrating this national event with a range of activities. We want to give parents plenty of notice as the children have asked to dress up as book charac?ters. There is no expectation that families spend money buying costumes– please encour?age the children to make a costume. If you have any costumes that your children have outgrown and they could be useful to other families for World Book Day, please send them into school. They will be gratefully received and will be displayed on the preloved uniform rail in the entrance area. Thank you
We are holding a parents workshop on Thursday 30th January 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. This workshop is open to all parents. Please let us know if you wish to attend (and if both parents will be attending) by emailing the school office by 3pm on Monday 27th January.
We are very excited to be launching a city-wide initiative for Rail200 - a celebration of 200 years of the railway.
