Information

Hi

This week we are beginning our Nativity rehearsals.  Pupils will be involved in learning and singing songs and some children have parts on stage too.  If your child was given a speaking part, please take time to rehearse this with your child.  Due to rehearsals the gym hall is not available so we will try to do our PE outdoors if possible.

On Thursday it is Bankie Bargains.  Please send any money in an envelope, purse or wallet to try to ensure money does not get lost.

We hope you can join us in class on Monday the 24th of November at 2pm to work with your child on Literacy tasks linked to their Book Bug Bags which will be issued that day.

If you have not yet returned the Christmas Lunch return slip please can you do this as soon as possible.

Have a great week,
Mrs Jolly
