We will be including some general reminders in our Weekly Notices sheet in the coming weeks for the benefit of our new parents/carers, which we hope you will find useful. The Weekly Notices and Reminder Sheet is sent out every Friday and includes dates of forthcoming events, school visits and workshops and important messages and reminders  about school life.  

Class WhatsApp Groups

May we please remind all parents/guardians that 'parent led' class WhatsApp groups should be a positive communication tool between parents/guardians. If you have a concern about your child, you can either speak with your child's class teacher at the end of the day or contact the school office via telephone call or email to arrange a meeting between yourself and the class teacher.

Reception – Year 6 Nasal/ Injectable Flu Vaccination session: 05/12/2023

Flu can be an unpleasant illness and sometimes causes serious complications. This vaccination is recommended to help protect your child against flu. Vaccinating your child will also help protect more vulnerable family and friends by preventing the spread of flu. This year we will be offering both nasal and injectable (halal) flu vaccination and the parent can make an informed choice on the consent form.

Please use the link provided to access the electronic consent form https://sav.hrch.nhs.uk/flu/2023/sutton 

Please complete one consent form for each child to ensure your child receives their vaccination.

You have 1 week until the deadline for submitting your e-consent form which is midnight on Tuesday, 28/11/2023.

Please complete the consent form even if you decide you do not want to vaccinate your child against flu this year. 

If you have any queries, please contact the relevant immunisation team below.

Workshops and School Visits

Can we please remind all parents that school workshops and trips rely on the contributions of parents in order for the trips/workshops to go ahead and unfortunately these may be cancelled if we do not receive payments. 

If you are having any difficulties making the payments, please contact the school office to discuss this further. 

Juniper Hall residential trip for year 4 deposit payment is now overdue. If you have not made a payment yet please do so as soon as possible. Also, online consent form are a requirement for the trip. If you haven't completed it yet please do so as soon as possible - without it your child won't be able to go on the trip.

 Thank you so much for your support.

Appointment Through The School Day

Please try to make dental and G.P appointments after school wherever possible to minimise gaps in your child's learning. We require a copy of letters for hospital appointments, visits to embassies or passport offices and high school entrance exams to enable us to authorise these appointments. We can copy the original documents, if necessary. 

Also, if you have a personal appointment please could you make the necessary arrangements to ensure that this does not impact your child's attendance and school time.

Christmas Dinner

Christmas Dinner will take place on Wednesday 6th December.

As shared last week, please click here for easy access to the form in order to book your child / children a Christmas lunch.

Please complete this form whether your child normally has a school lunch/grab and go lunch on Wednesdays or if your child is/will be a packed lunch from home. 

Please note that the form must be submitted before the end of school day on Friday 24th November as LEO Catering has to order supplies accordingly. 

You will need to provide your child/ren with a packed lunch from home if you do not complete this form before the deadline as we are unable to increase numbers after this date.

Year 6 Sutton Life Centre

This week, children in Year 6 visited the Sutton Life Centre to take part in a 'Junior Citizenship Day'. The experience included interactive sessions where they were able to work in small groups to experience different safety scenarios delivered by organisations such as The London Fire Department, Metropolitan Police and The London Ambulance Service. 

LEO KS2 Panathlon 

In order to celebrate inclusivity for all within sports, children from across KS2 took part in the LEO Panathlon event where they competed in a variety of multi-sport activities.  Throughout the day, children had the opportunity to try out a range of sporting games both individually and as a team. Each of the children had a fantastic time and we are pleased to share their success with the team finishing in first place. Well done all involved!
