Here we are again at the end of yet another term.
The past few weeks have been a very challenging with a number of staff and pupil absences due to Covid. We would like to thank you for your patience and understanding with this. We are trying as hard as possible to keep learning and routines as consistent as we can.
I would like to thank you for completing the Parent Survey. All feedback has been shared by the Trust and we are in the process of analysing your comments. I am delighted to share with you that 96% of parents and children are happy to be at Tree Tops Primary Academy! We will work on on the other 4%!
You may notice over the next few months children wearing badges with a purple star. These are our Star Awards. Star Awards are for children who are showing good manners in the way they behave and the things they say or do.
S Speak polite words
T Tell the truth
A Ask questions and listen
R Repair your mistakes
The children are excited about the Star Awards and are already displaying their good manners.
As the weather changes and the cold sets in please make sure your child is wearing appropriate clothing and footwear (no trainers).
I wish you a wonderful break and look forward to seeing the children back into school on Monday 21st February 2022.

Blue Bird's Community Cafe runs once a week, on Thursday, from 8.45am - 10.30 am . We provide hot and cold drinks and snacks for a small donation. Toys available for small children to play with while you have a chat with your friends. We are very lucky to have it managed by one of our parents.
We are hoping for members of the community to hold 'surgeries' in the coming weeks. Keep an eye on our social media for more information.
It is really important that children are in school every day. All absences are being marked as unauthorised and will result in a fine.
We have a number of children who have a severe, potentially life threatening nut allergies. The school is therefore now with immediate effect a NUT FREE zone. Please ensure that your child does not bring any nuts or food items to school which have nuts as a listed ingredient, thank you.
