Mrs Peake's - Headteacher Highlights 

I hope this newsletter finds you well and rested after the break. As we embark on Term 4, I am filled with excitement and anticipation for the learning opportunities and growth that lie ahead.

Reflecting on Term 3:

Before we dive into the new term, let's take a moment to reflect on the achievements and successes of Term 3. Our students have shown resilience, creativity, and dedication in their studies, and I want to commend both students and staff for their hard work and commitment.

New Beginnings:

As we step into Term 4, we welcome new students and new staff, new challenges and new opportunities for learning. This term promises to be a time of exploration, innovation, and collaboration as we continue to strive for excellence in education.

Key Highlights and Events:

We have an exciting lineup of events and activities planned for this term, including:

• Parents Evening: these conferences provide an excellent opportunity for parents and teachers to discuss student progress and set goals for the remainder of the academic year.

• Open Morning: Reading Cafe invitation with the option of dressing up as a book character. 

• Author Visitors: We have 2 authors who are visiting to inspire our children on their writing journey. Remember the key to a good writer is a good reader. Please ensure your child is reading and writing at home. 

• Science Week: Exciting and experimental with a special invitation to Years 5 and 6 children who have stayed green over the term.

• Clubs: Before school, during lunchtime, after school and even on a Saturday. These have started strongly this week and some conclude in a show at the Royal Festival Hall (cue the choir).

Focus on Well-being:

As always, the well-being of our students is a top priority. We will continue to provide support and resources to ensure that our students thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. We have a variety of support in place including home log ins for Zumos, 121 and group therapy as well as counselling for children who need it. 

Reminders and Updates:

• Please ensure that children are in full uniform  - trainers are only permitted with PE kits. Ties and water bottles are part of the expected school uniform.

Closing Thoughts:

I am confident that Term 4 will be a period of growth, learning, and shared achievements. Let's continue to work together to create a positive and nurturing environment for our students.

Thank you for your ongoing support, and I look forward to another successful term!
