Newsletter June 2024

Dear Parents and Carers,

The Summer has finally arrived and it was great to have such a wonderful Arts Week Carnival as the we celebrated and shared all that we have been creating and learning in the last few weeks. It was so wonderful that so many of you came along to support the children, a thoroughly enjoyable morning. Click here to see more.

We hope to see you at our International Evening on Wednesday 26th June and at our July events coming up too - remember to check the calendar on the website and here for dates and to make sure your PING is set to receive emails as well as notifications.

With the warm weather, comes some reminders to keep the children safe. Please remember to apply sun cream before school each day. If your child needs extra applications through the day, please ask their class teacher to help assist with this. Children should bring to school a cap or summer hat to keep their faces out of the sun. Water bottles are also very important this term, please make sure the children bring them each day. There is drinking water in every classroom for the children to refill throughout the day too.
