This is where you will find all of the information that will keep you up to date with our latest events!
As part of our PSHE curriculum the children have been working hard this week to complete an enterprise project. Each year group will be selling their products on Thursday 11th July between 3.45pm and 4.30pm on the playground. We hope that you will be able to join staff and children at this informal end of year event. Please bring your spare change as selling, giving change and counting the money afterwards will support the children’s learning.
A very big thank you to our choir and some of our very talented musicians for a wonderful performance on Monday at St Barabara's Church. We were treated to a lovely programme of old favourites, modern pieces and even some compositions by students. Well done to everyone who made this such a great evening.
Sports Day will take place on Friday 12th July from 1pm -3pm at King Henry VIII’s School, Spencer Avenue entrance. It is for pupils in Years 1 – 6.
Children should wear their school PE kit.
Please avoid bringing rucksacks to school on this day.
Children will have an early lunch on Sports Day and will be walked up to King Henry’s by school staff. We will not need any additional support with this. We ask that parents arrive at King Henry’s School at 1pm through the car park entrance on Spencer Avenue.
Please do not arrive early as we need time to organise the pupils into their house groups. We have planned a Sports Day that combines both participation and competitive sport. All children from Years 1-5 will take part in a carousel of activities that will be led by our Year 6 pupils.
Children in each year group will be called from the multisport activities to take part in one running race. After they have run in their race, they will rejoin the carousel of activities.
At approximately 2.30pm, the activities will finish and all children will watch the Year 6 races.
After this, all children will be taken to the other side of the field to line up with their class teacher for home time.
To ensure that we can keep all children safe we ask that:
• Parents don’t take their child to the toilet – staff will do this.
• Parents to remain at the race track after the Year 6 final races until we invite you to collect your child.
Children must not be taken before they have lined up with their class teacher.
UNLESS YOUR CHILD HAS A PRE-BOOKED PLACE AT AFTER SCHOOL CLUB OR A SPORTS CLUB, THEY MUST BE COLLECTED FROM KING HENRY’S SCHOOL AT 3PM. CHILDREN WHO ARE NOT COLLECTED WILL BE ALLOCATED TO AFTER SCHOOL CLUB AND WILL INCUR A CHARGE OF £10. Thank you for your support.

Friday 12th July– sports day for children in Y1-Y6
From 1st September Earlsdon Primary will be ‘going cashless'. This means that no change will be kept in the office and no cash payments will be taken for trips, dinner money or clubs. Payments will all need to be made using Schoolcomms, the school online payment facility. If you are not familiar with Schoolcomms, please see a member of our office staff who will be more than happy to take you through the process. Thank you
As part of the school's Go Parks commission, Earlsdon Primary have been asked to run an Olympic/Paralympic themed tennis event at Spencer Park. We will be running various tennis activities from 3.30pm - 6pm on Tuesday 18th June. This coincides with International Picnic Day, so please come and join us with your picnic!
Go Parks: Active Schools Chal?lenge returns this Sunday! This time it will be celebrating the Olympic and Paralympic Games with a Paris 2024 Special from Sunday 9 June – Sunday 7th July 2024. Those who take part earn points for each scan, and these points can be given to a chosen Coventry school. Schools are grouped dependent on their pupil numbers. The schools with the most points in their group on Sunday 7th July will win. There are spot prizes for residents to collect along the way, as well as pop-up taster activities in parks with the opportunity to try out new sports for FREE. You can read more about the Challenge and how to get involved on the Coventry Sport webpage.
We would like to request that the children wear plain navy or black shorts/ leggings or jogging bottoms, a plain white t shirt and a plain navy or black sweatshirt/ hoodie to school on their P.E day. To prevent the added costs of buying additional clothing, we would like to suggest that the children wear their school t-shirt and school sweatshirt or cardigan as their P.E kit. We would also like to ask that they refrain from wearing sportswear with logos– the only logo the children should be wearing is the school logo. Thank you for your ongoing
