Dear Parents and Carers

What a whirlwind of exciting activities we've had at Delce this week!

Firstly, we're currently seeking a dedicated member of our school community to join the Governing Board as a Parent Governor. This is a fantastic opportunity to be involved in the strategic direction of Delce and make a real difference in the lives of our children. More information below in the community section. 

On Monday, Year 4 truly brought history to life with a captivating drama workshop based on the adventures of famous explorers. Their creative energy and acting talents were on full display, leaving everyone thoroughly impressed!

On a similar note of exploration, Year 3 and 4 children embarked on a delicious journey during a World Food Workshop delivered by our catering company Chartwells. The children not only learned about different cultures' culinary traditions but also had the opportunity to taste some of these delectable dishes themselves. This hands-on experience is a wonderful way to broaden their understanding of the world and foster a spirit of cultural appreciation.

We were also delighted to welcome our Trustees to Delce this week.  Their feedback was overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the warmth, nurture and enthusiasm displayed by both our adults and children in their learning journey.  Our active engagement strategies across the school were noted as a particular strength, showcasing the dedication and passion staff bring to their roles every day. It's truly inspiring to see such commitment to our pupils' growth and development. I'm thrilled to share that the visit has sparked excitement about the transformation journey we're embarking on this year at Delce. I couldn't be prouder of the team we have here at Delce. Their dedication ensures that our children have exactly what they need to thrive. Our See our Chair of Trustees, Andrew Lawrence's, tweet here.

At Delce, we are committed to providing a well-rounded education that extends beyond the textbook. As part of this philosophy, all classes embark on trips and have opportunities to experience different activities through workshops and visits from external speakers. These engaging experiences allow our children to interact with the world around them in a meaningful way, fostering a love of learning that goes far beyond the classroom walls.

We look forward to sharing more exciting news with you in the next newsletter!

'At Delce We Do Belong'

At Delce, a well-presented uniform plays a valuable role in fostering a positive and unified learning environment.  Wearing a uniform promotes a sense of belonging and reduces distractions based on clothing, allowing everyone to focus on learning. It also creates a positive image for our school and instils pride in both children and staff.  Uniforms can be more practical and durable than everyday clothes, saving money on wardrobes.  Our pre-loved uniform program offers a budget-friendly option.  We kindly ask all parents to ensure their children wear the full and correct uniform, labelled with their name.  

Additionally, while makeup and nail polish might be worn on weekends, we request they are not worn during the school week.  

Regular school shoes are required, with trainers only permitted for PE lessons.
