Harvest Festival

  

Harvest Festival will be held at St Edmund’s church on Tuesday 22^nd October at 1.45pm.

The Harvest Service will be preceded by our usual ‘Open the Book’ assembly, led by representatives from St Edmunds’ and Crickhowell Evangelical Church.

A collection will be held with donations being sent to a charity of chosen by the School Council.

Apologies for the delay in organising this year’s harvest – this was due to building issues at the church.

Literacy in School

Following on from the success of the numeracy sessions we ran earlier in the year we would like to offer you the opportunity to find out more about how literacy is taught to your children. On Tuesday 22^nd October we will be opening up our classes to parents to watch a literacy session taking place. The session will start at 9.10am in the hall before parents then visit individual classes.

Please be aware that, because of the nature of the sessions and the limited availability of places, the class we allocate you to may not be that of your own child. We will ensure, however, that your visit is of interest and relevance to you. A separate event will be organised for nursery parents in the near future.

A form is coming home with the children today for you to let us know that you can attend.

Christening at St Edmunds for Years 1 and 2 - POSTPONED

Unfortunately, as Rector Barry is unwell, we will need to postpone this afternoon's mock christening at St Edmunds' church. If you see this message we would be grateful if you could pass it on to other parents of pupils in years 1 and 2. 

Parents' Evenings

Don't forget that parents' evening meetings are taking place this week on Monday and Tuesday. You can help us to keep on time by remembering that each meeting is limited to ten minutes; you are welcome to make arrangements to see your child's teacher again if you feel there is more to discuss.
