Welcome back!
We have been delighted to see all the children return rested and ready to learn again after their Christmas break. This week our Year 6 pupils and all our staff received Defibrillator training from East Anglian Air Ambulance. We store a school defibrillator in our First Aid room.
SEND
Miss Brass will soon be sending a newsletter to all parents with information about SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) provision in our school. Please read this carefully. Do get in touch with either your Class Teacher or request a meeting with Miss Brass via the office. She has allocated times in her diary each week to meet with parents who have concerns. These are Monday 11am-12:30 and Tuesday 1:30-5pm.
Attendance
Mrs Sheridan and Ms Beaney work very hard with our children and families to ensure pupils are in school wherever possible. Thank you for working with us. Our whole school attendance for this academic year is above our target of 96% at 96.4%! This is the first time since the Covid pandemic that we have reached this target. Well done everyone.
School Meals
The children are thoroughly enjoying the new school meals from Aspens, particularly the choice and presentation of the desserts. Remember to log in to your account to ensure you can book meals of your child’s choice.
