Non Nut School / Packed Lunch And Water Bottles Reminder

At Manor Park, we are sensitive to the catering needs of children with specific dietary needs, including religious considerations. 

We kindly remind all parents and carers that packed lunches must NOT include nuts or products that contain nuts (i.e. NO Nutella and NO peanut butter), as we are a NUT FREE SCHOOL. Due to several children and members of staff with a nut allergy and who require the use of Epipens, we kindly remind you to adhere to this policy. 

Secondly, all drinks should be water only (no squash) in a plastic bottle, NO GLASS, a carton of juice (with their lunch) or milk. An example of a recommended lunch box could be a chicken salad wrap, an apple, yogurt, a low sugar flap jack and a drink of water.

Appointment through the School Day

Please ensure that all dental and G.P. appointments are made 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. Where necessary, we are able to photocopy the original documents, and return as required.

School Collection - Polite Reminder

Please may we remind you that your child/ren need to be picked up promptly at the end of their school day. 

• Morning nursery finishes at 11.30 am and we politely remind parents that the children need to be collected on time as staff have to prepare for the afternoon session as well as have their lunch. 

• Afternoon nursery finishes at 3.15 pm and again we politely remind parents to promptly collect their children from nursery at that time. 

• For Year's 1 - 6 see as follows: Year 1, 2 & 3 - 3:30 pm, and 2:15 pm on a Friday; Year 4, 5 & 6 is 3:40 pm, and 2:25 pm on a Friday

• If your children attend an after school club, they need to be picked up from school promptly at 4.30 pm. 

• The school office closes at 4.30 pm and the teachers have other commitments that they need to attend to. 

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

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.  

Thank you so much for your support.

Reminder For Parents Regarding Injuries Outside of School Hours

If your child injures themselves outside of school i.e in a sporting activity or even whilst playing and they required hospital treatment  or a GP visit to check the injury, please come into the school office on their return to school so that we can assess if we need to put measures into place to help them whilst in school. 

If the injury happens at school, and we are aware of it, and would naturally follow up a child's well-being and the outcome of any doctor or hospital check. However, if it happens outside of school hours we would not necessarily know which is why it is very important to come into the office to pass on such information. Thank you.

EYFS & Reception Continue Exceptional Provision This Week!

Reception Class have had a busy and colourful week! They have been exploring colour mixing, creating a whole rainbow of new shades from the primary colours. What a wonderful way to develop their artistic skills! The children have also been working hard on their reading skills, using their phonics to follow clues and find Little Bo Peep's lost sheep. This imaginative activity helped them to practise their reading in a fun and engaging way.

In EYFS, we launched our exciting new topic, 'Starry Night', with a cosy PJ day. Everyone enjoyed a tasty hot chocolate treat while discussing their bedtime routines. We look forward to exploring this topic further in the coming weeks.

Complaints Policy and Parent Code of Conduct 

We are committed to providing a positive and supportive learning environment for all our pupils. To ensure we maintain clear and effective communication and address any concerns raised, we have recently reviewed and updated our school complaints policy.

This revised policy outlines the procedures for raising a concern or making a formal complaint, ensuring a fair and transparent process for all parties involved.

The updated complaints policy is now available to view on our school website: Manor Park School Policies. We encourage all parents to familiarise themselves with this document.

We believe that open communication between home and school is crucial for the success of our children. This revised policy aims to provide a clear framework for addressing any concerns and ensuring a positive partnership between parents and the school.
