UPCOMING EVENTS
YEAR 3 SLEEPOVER
Friday 3rd November
As part of the entry point to our Autumn 1 topic, ‘Changes in Britain from Stone Age to Iron Age’, we would like to invite your child to the Year 3 sleepover. The children will have the opportunity to learn survival skills such as fire safety, shelter building and much more.
On the day, we ask you please to collect your child as normal at the end of the day. They will need to have dinner before they are brought back to school. They will then need to return to school at 7pm in their pyjamas with the following:
a warm coat and appropriate footwear as some activities will be taking place outside
a spare blanket for shelter building
a torch
a pillow and a sleeping bag (or equivalent)
a mat to sleep on
a cuddly toy (if they wish)
toothbrush and toothpaste
Please do not provide snacks for your child as all food will be supplied including a hot drink before bed, and breakfast in the morning. There will also be no need to send a change of clothes as children will leave in their pyjamas when being collected.
This sleepover will cost £3 to help cover costs and payment should be made via Arbor. Please complete this form by Friday 20th October to confirm your child’s participation in the trip.

Please drop off your child at the main office on Friday night at 7pm. Please collect your child at 8am on Saturday morning from the Year 1 steps.
