Newsletter - 20th March 2023

Dear Parents and Carers,

As always, it is a delight to share with you once again so many highlights from the last few weeks. Be sure to click on the buttons to view the highlights from each phase as well as whole school events.

I am once again urging all those who drive, to not park or stop illegally outside of the school gates. Find a place to park and then walk your child safely to school. It is important to keep the area outside of the gates free. We are trying to keep everyone as safe as possible.

Please remind your children regularly; about crossing the road safely, to check both ways, and to walk sensibly on their way home.

The school day starts promptly at 8:50am. The gates will be locked each day 8:55am without exception. We advise that you try to arrive by 8:45am, so that your child can get to class and be settled, ready to start their day.

Important Reminders

Hygiene advice - this is the time of year where there may be headlice. Please take time to check your child's hair from time to time and seek advice from your Pharmacy. Headlice Letter https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/head-lice-and-nits/
Online Safety - it is essential that you monitor your child's use of the internet including apps on their phones. There are times when children are on platforms such as Snapchat, WhatsApp and others, when children can be exposed to inappropriate language and behaviour. You should ensure that your child knows who they are talking to/communicating with. Our advice would be to not use apps that are not age appropriate.
Click here to access some useful information about online safety.
Smart Watches are not permitted in school. Some watches have the facility to take photos and videos. We are unable to check all watches, but we need to ensure that all pupils and staff are kept safe. The easiest way to ensure the safety of all, is to not allow any smart watches in school so that inappropriate recording can't take place. This includes smartwatches that have School time lock in place.
The school day starts at 8:50am. Please arrive in plenty of time so that your child is not late. Gate and classrooms are open from 8:30am.
Please do not park on the zig-zag lines at the zebra crossings, or on the double yellow lines around the entrances to the school. These parking restrictions are in place to keep everyone safe. Please also be mindful of parking on the curbs/pavements. The pavement is very narrow and these need to be kept clear for those who are walking.
