A reminder that all child absences should be reported to the school office via the absence line on 01604 761679. Please ensure that you call the school every day that your child is absent so that we can allocate their mark on the register accordingly. Unless you have discussed a specific exclusion period for your child's symptoms directly with the school office, please ensure that children are reported appropriately. Please ensure that you leave your child's name, class and their reason for absence in each message.
Please could parents also ensure that lateness is recorded on the office iPad. This will require parents to accompany their child into school and the reason for lateness should be disclosed.
Many thanks for your continued support.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the 'Make Someone Happy' competition! We truly appreciated all the wonderful entries you submitted. Congratulations to CM for winning and earning 5 house points!

The Eco Warriors are on a mission to collect toys for the Northampton Toy Library, and we need your help! If you're planning a clear-out and have any toys you no longer need, we would love to receive your donations. Please ensure that all toys are clean and in working order. If you’d like to contribute, kindly drop off your items at the school office. The deadline for donations is Friday, 22nd November. Thank you for supporting this wonderful initiative!
The WSA are still looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help with organising enjoyable events such as fayres, discos, movie nights, and more. We also need assistance with initiatives like Healthy Tuck, Easter Raffles, and sales for Mother's and Father's Day.
Can you spare a little time to help us keep these activities vibrant for your children? If you’re interested in getting involved, please reach out to the school office. Your support is vital, and without it, we may struggle to continue these events. Thank you!
The WSA have the first of the WSA Discos coming up soon, the date for this is Tuesday, November the 12th. More information as we get closer to it!
How to sleep better
We all know that getting a good night's sleep is key to helping us stay both physically and mentally healthy. We all have times when we are worried or anxious about something, and this can affect how we sleep. This can then often make the situation and/or us feel worse.
The Mental Health Foundation is a UK charity that supports people to help improve their own mental health. They have a guide to helping us improve our quality of sleep, and offer some solutions if you are struggling to get to sleep. The link to their website is here, and it is well worth a read.
We wanted to remind parents/carers to please drive and park legally, safely and responsibly when dropping off and collecting your child/ren from school. We encourage parents/residents to report dangerous driving and parking using the below link.
Please THINK before you park.
Please THINK about pedestrians and those in wheelchairs or with pushchairs.
Please THINK about emergency services, your vehicle could be blocking their access.
Please refer to the Highway Code—Rules 238—252.
Offenders may receive penalty points and/or fine of up to £100.
Please report dangerous parking/driving to the non-emergency police number 101.
We return to school on Monday 4th November 2024!
