What a fabulous Sports Week - Pro Skipping Workshops, an International Hockey Match, a GB Gymnast, Sports Days and more Swimming! We have all had a blast thanks to the wonderful Mrs Goldspring and her dedication to sports and physical activity - we are truly grateful. 

Last week we were wishing Mrs Goldspring and the Sarratt Swim Team of 2023 the very best of luck in this year's National Finals at Pond's Forge Swim Centre in Sheffield. We are extremely proud to say that Ivy, Henry, Tom, Dani and Gemma all did a wonderful job in representing the school, getting through all of the heats to make the finals of each relay! Well Done Team!!!!

We also had a memorable night at the Three Rivers and Watford School Sports Partnership Awards. Congratulations to Maisey for being our Playleader of the Year, Tom for being captain of the Year and representing the swim team and Josh for being nominated for the Sportsmanship Award. An extra special well done to Ivy who won the KS2 Outstanding Achievement Award - well deserved after all her training and determination in the pool! 

Finally, we had some amazing news earlier this week. Mrs Serby has led us all in achieving Gold Artsmark Accreditation!!! Gold accreditation is extremely rare to achieve at primary level so it just shows the level of determination and aspiration shown by Mrs Serby - well done (more info to follow).

Warmest regards,

Nicola O'Hare

Please ensure your child has an outdoor jacket everyday. We always aim to have the children outside as much as possible during playtime and lunchtime.

The climbing frames are out of bounds before and after school. 

One of our wonderful parents has set up a Facebook page to exchange uniform items that are no longer needed. If your child has outgrown their uniform or you are looking for additional items then this is the place for you. click on the link below to go to the page. Please contact the school office for more details. 

Good attendance starts at primary school - children who have attendance of 97% or above achieve better outcomes in school and have the best opportunities in their adult life.  

If you child misses school regularly, this will affect friendships as well as academic outcomes. It can be hard for a child who misses lots of school to form and maintain relationships with their classmates.

Being on time is also vital. Arriving late at school can be very disruptive for your child, their teacher and the other children in the class.

Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow!
