Dear Families,
Dear Families,
A Busy and Brilliant Start to the New Academic Year
Our first full five-day week of the new academic year has been bursting with energy and enthusiasm as children dive into exciting new areas of learning. From Sea Farers and Ancient Egypt to Ocean Habitats and the Mayan Civilisation, pupils have been thoroughly engagedโdiscovering fascinating facts and developing fresh skills.
Beyond the classroom, itโs been a hive of activity. Our new temporary classroom is nearly ready, and weโre thrilled to welcome our youngest learners into their new space next week. Meanwhile, the village has been buzzing with excitement as The Green has been transformed into a film set! Weโre aware this has made drop-off and pick-up a little more challenging, and we truly appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.
Looking ahead to next week, weโre delighted to be welcoming Mrs Whitewood, our wonderful school photographer, on Tuesday and Wednesday. Sheโll be capturing individual portraits and sibling group photos as the children settle into their new year. Please ensure your child is dressed in full school uniform on their designated photo day.
Warmest regards,ย
Nicola O'Hareย
Head Teacher

Packed Lunch Policy
Packed Lunch Policy
As we settle into the new term, weโd like to remind families of our schoolโs packed lunch policy. This policy is based on current health and nutrition guidance, aiming to support children with a balanced lunch that fuels their afternoon of learning and play.
To promote healthy choices, we ask that certain items be avoidedโparticularly those high in salt, sugar, or saturated fat. Please also remember that we operate a strict No Nut policy across the school. We kindly ask that you check all packaging carefully to ensure compliance.
For a clear overview of whatโs encouraged and what should be avoided, please refer to the guidance tables below.
