Trips
Both years 3 & 6 visited Chiltern Open Air Museum, to help them with their upcoming projects / topics.
Fencing Plea
We are looking for a little help from our school community and beyond. Our wooden fences around the school grounds / playground are looking really sorry for themselves and are desperately in need of replacing. We are hoping that one of our parents may have a contact or recommendation for someone in the fencing trade. If you have a connection to a reputable fencing company, that may be able to help us, we would be extremely grateful if you could get in touch. Every recommendation could make a real difference to our school. Thank you so much for your support!
Pupil Premium
We now ask families who are in receipt of Pupil Premium to make a contribution towards school trips.
Pupil Premium funding is allocated to support pupils in a range of ways, and it is at the Headteacher's discretion as to how this funding is used, depending on the individual needs and priorities within the school.
Therefore, being eligible for Pupil Premium does not automatically mean that the full cost of a school trip will be covered by the school.
If you are finding it difficult to make the requested contribution, please contact the school office, and the head teacher will be happy to discuss this with you confidentially and see where we can support you.
There are also a lot of parents that have not re-applied for pupil premium / free school meals. You are at risk of losing this entitlement if you do not re-apply. Forms were given out at the end of last term. These are also available at reception.
AGM
The AGM and Meet the Teacher will be held on Tuesday 15th September 5:30pm - 6:30pm. It will be good to see as many of you there. The PTA will be sharing details of past work and also upcoming events. Teachers will be sharing details of children's school day and curriculum. There will also be a Meet the Teacher catch up on 16th September at 09:00
