Our annual sports day event will take place on Wednesday 3rd July at 1pm on the village green. As usual, we will need parent volunteers in order to enable our sports day event to take place. Please email Mrs Bowen on admin@twyning.gloucs.sch.uk or Mrs Leggett on jleggett@twyning.gloucs.sch.uk as soon as possible if you can help - it will be explained fully to you beforehand. You will need to be available from 12.15pm at the latest to be briefed. Thank you.

On sports day, 3rd July, dinners will be served earlier at 11:30am to allow time to go down. The school dinner menu will change to:

A: Hot dog and chips, carrot and cucumber sticks

B: Veggie hot dog and chips, carrot and cucumber sticks

C: Jacket potato with the usual fillings

Please note that ALL school dinner account debts MUST be cleared or in credit by the last week of term. Please make sure that you have also credited enough money to your child's parentpay account to pay for your child's dinners in that last week! 

We are very proud to have been presented with the SILVER Gloucestershire REaction award for our RE provision. Well done to everyone, especially Mrs Wiseman our RE subject leader, for your efforts towards gaining this accolade.

We are looking to create a donations box for good quality trainers, PE shoes, school shoes, school bags, pencil cases etc. If you are having a clear out and find any old but usable good quality items I'm sure there are many other children in Gloucestershire and our local area who are in need of them. These items will be collected and sent to children who may not be fortunate enough to have these school items. We will have a collection box ready to drop items in, by the school main doors during the last few weeks of this term.  Thank you for support.

There are only 3 tea towels left! If you still want one, please ask Mrs Bowen for one and bring £5 per towel..
