Recycling – The Rag Bag Bin and Newspaper Collection…Thank you to everyone who has supported the Rag Bag collection. To date we have raised over £420. Please continue to support this. Don’t forget that we are also collecting newspapers which can be left in the green bin at the front of the school.

Plastic Recycling…We need every child to bring into school 20 plastic bottle tops! Once we have 20 per child we can send them away to receive a free sports kit of our choice made using recycled plastic. We don’t need the bottles themselves; they can be recycled in the normal way.

Cello Lessons…Would your child like to take up the cello? We are now able to offer weekly cello lessons delivered by Mrs Emma Archer. Please send a note into school if you would like to take up this opportunity. A number of the children have expressed an interest following a cello demonstration given in assembly by Emma.

Breakfast Club…Don’t forget that Breakfast Club now opens 15 minutes earlier at 8am with a £1 charge for the period 8am to 8.15am.

Arriving at School…A reminder that children should not be on the school premises before 8.50am unless they are attending Breakfast Club.

Photos by Wednesday…All photo orders and payment need to be returned to the school by next Wednesday.

Fields in Trust…is a scheme set up to coincide with the Queen's Diamond Jubilee next year - it is a programme to protect 2012 outdoor recreational spaces in local communities. The park at Oakfield Drive is one of those listed and I know many local children and their families would be interested in safeguarding it for the future. If you would like to support the campaign you can do so by visiting www.qe2fields.com and voting appropriately. The last chance to vote is TODAY!

Packed Lunches…It would greatly assist the canteen staff if parents of our youngest children could ensure that they peel and cut up fruit before it goes into their child’s lunchbox.

School Council Sponsored Walk…has raised £531 for the IT for Tomorrow fund. However, only 38 children have so far returned the sponsor money. This is an average of £14 per child. If each child has managed to obtain that level of sponsorship we will have raised  £2000 in a single event.  Please return any outstanding sponsorship money on Monday.
