Congratulations to our table tennis teams who competed in the Warwickshire Schools Team Table Tennis Championships on Thursday at Stratford. For many children it was their first tournament and we were very proud of how well they played and how they demonstrated our school value of respect at all times.
A big well done to our boys A team who came first and qualified for the Area Finals in February.
We would like to thank Sport England and the National Lottery for funding our Saturday morning club sessions.
Mr Kumar and our catering team will be serving Christmas dinner on Wednesday 17th Decem-ber. More information about how to book a meal for your child will follow shortly.
We will also be inviting the children to wear Christmas jumpers to school on this day, but would like to stress that we do not want this to be an expensive event for families– please don’t buy a jumper for this day. If your child does not have a Christmas jump-er, they can wear clothes in Christmas colours or a party outfit they already have.
We welcome donations of Christmas jumpers that children have outgrown and will hang these on the preloved uniform rail in the main reception when we receive them.
We are very grateful to the PTA for organising the Christmas dis-cos for Years 1-6. The discos will take place after school on Tues-day 16th December.
Due to the Year 1 and 2 disco taking place immediately after school, pupils in Year 1 and 2 only can wear dis-co/party clothes to school on 16th December.
Children in Year 1 and 2 who have bought a disco ticket will be taken to the disco by their class teacher at 3.30pm.
Our first school junior parkrun is this Sunday. It will take place at the War Memorial Park near the play park. There will be a fun warm-up followed by the run/walk for the children. We are delighted that over 100 have registered—that is a quarter of our school!
The PTA have been busy preparing for the breakfast at school. We have bought rolls and sausages for all those who indicated that they would like one. These can be purchased in the school dining room which can be accessed through the school car park after the parkrun.
We look forward to seeing lots of families!
Many thanks to everyone for supporting us to make end of the day collection procedures safer for children. We are delighted that children are all being collected on time. Please note that we don’t make phone calls home for children who aren’t collected. These children are given a place at after school club and should be collected from the side entrance.
We have quite a lot of children who are arriving late to school in the morning. If your child is only a few minutes late: - they don’t start the day calmly as they have to rush to get into class - they miss extra adult support and the start of learning. Also our office staff have to manually add late children to our registration system. This often means that our office staff lose up to half an hour in total each day processing late arrivals.
Please get your child into good habits for secondary school, help them start the day calmly and help our office staff by arriving on time. Thank you!
We will be running two sessions for parents in Reception to introduce them to our phonics scheme—Little Wandle. These are very informative sessions and will help you to support your child with learning to read. The sessions are either Thursday 13 November 4-5pm or Tuesday 18 November 9-10am. We look forward to seeing you at one of the sessions.
Year 4 represented the school at Coventry Schools' Remembrance Service at the War Memorial Park on Wednesday. A special thank you to the Coventry Young Ambassadors who greet?ed schools and special visitors.
Please save the date for our first ever allotment winter lights trail. This will take place on 4th and 5th December after school. It will include a magical light trail at our allotments and also a visit to Santa. Warm refreshments will be available. Tickets will be limited and will be going on sale next week
Please join us at the allotment for an afternoon of winter wreath making. This will be a relaxing session with refreshments provided. There will be a separate session for children. Pre-booking is essential as there are a very limited number of places. The event will take place on Saturday 6th December 2-3.30pm.
As part of our commitment to being a school that promotes active and healthy lifestyles, we have linked with Junior Parkrun. This takes place every Sunday at the War Memorial Park. We will be inviting families to join us there as part of a school group on the last Sunday of every month in term time. Following the children’s run, you will be welcome to come back to school to join us for sausage and vegetarian sausage sandwiches, pastries and hot drinks. Our first session will be on Sunday 30th November. We will be sending a form out to ask if you are intending to come and if you hope to come back to school for refreshments. This will help the PTA with buying the food.
