1 - 5 March 2026
Our 2026 Book Week theme is The Dark!
Throughout BSM's Book Week the children will explore stories and poems inspired by night-time, shadows, and nocturnal creatures. To start our week, everyone will be invited to wear their pajamas and bring their favourite bedtime read (& teddy bear). On World Book Day (5 March) everyone is invited to dress up as a word linked to the dark or night, a nocturnal animal, or a character from a favourite night-time story.
Across the school, we’ll all be reading The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark by Jill Tomlinson and The Dark by Lemony Snicket, along with other wonderful night-time/dark themed books. It promises to be a magical week of reading, creativity, and imagination under the stars!

We are aware of a few problems with our emails not being received by parents, particularly for Yahoo and Hotmail addresses. To help our emails make it to your inbox we would recommend the following:
Gmail users - emails sometimes go into the 'promotions' tab and occasionally 'spam'. Please check both these folders. To correct, you can just drag and drop one such message to the 'Primary' mailbox and click Yes on the confirmation box for all future messages. Saving our email addresses will also help (see below).
Yahoo & Hotmail users - emails sent to a group (such as a class or year group) are often filtered out as spam by Yahoo and Hotmail. You can avoid this by adding the email addresses below to your contacts. Please also consider providing us with an alternative email address to contact you.

"No nuts" at BSM
"No nuts" at BSM
Here at BSM we recognise that food allergies are a serious concern. 1 in 50 children have an allergy to nuts with some having severe, life threatening reactions (Anaphylaxis). In order to protect our students with severe nut allergies, we have a no nut policy.
We ask that no nuts or nut products are brought into school. This includes:
Any type of nuts
Pesto
Peanut butter
Nutella
Nougat and Marzipan
Sesame seed rolls (we also have children severely allergic to sesame seeds)
Any food items containing nuts - Chocolates, cereal bars, cakes, biscuits etc.
Many thanks for your support with keeping our children safe.
Kind Regards
BSM Nurses
