Verrucas

Please check your child's feet. Verrucas are very contagious and painful. There has been a big increase of reported cases of verrucas. If children have a verruca they can only swim if it is being treated and a verruca sock is worn whilst in the swimming pool and changing rooms. Verruca socks can be purchased for £2.00 each from the school Office.

Air Quality Around Our School

When waiting in you car to collect your child from school, please switch your engine off rather than sitting in the car with the engine running. We have very concerned neighbours who have pointed out that this practice is not only very bad for the air quality but it is also illegal; the Highway Code states:

On a public road, it indeed is illegal to sit in your car whilst keeping the engine running within the UK. The Highway Code states: 'You MUST NOT leave a parked vehicle unattended with the engine running or leave a vehicle engine running unnecessarily while that vehicle is stationary on a public road'.

So please help us to improve air quality around our school... together we can make a difference.

Sutton Parent Carer Forum Workshop with Yvonne Newbold

Where? Sutton Library Community Room, St Nicholas Way, SM1 1EA

When? 11th July, 2019 10am – 12.30pm

Creche provided by Playwise

Workshop introduction by Yvonne

‘We all dream of creating a perfect long summer holiday for our family, with happy, carefree children, and smiling, calm and patient parents. Picnics on the beach and brothers and sisters who always play nicely together. Instead, real-life happens, and it often has other ideas, especially when there’s a child with an additional need in the family.

This workshop looks at all the competing demands and priorities that school holidays can bring and find solutions to meeting many of our children’s differing needs.

We’ll look at reducing anxieties, pre-empting upsets and meltdowns, having fun at home when you can’t go out, how to banish boredom, how to not spend too much money, how to manage unexpected change and things going wrong, and how to keep your energies recharged while protecting your own emotional well-being. Plus lots more.

It would be great if you can join us and meet other local parents who “get it” and start to build a school holiday toolbox of coping strategies that work.’

PLACES FOR THE WORKSHOP AND CRECHE MUST BE BOOKED BY 28^th June 2019
