WELCOME TO A NEW MEMBER OF STAFF
We would like to welcome Mrs Ambrose to our teaching staff; she will be covering Mrs Spencer’s class whilst she is on maternity leave. I am sure you will all join me in giving her a warm welcome. The class will continue to be known as Class NS.
We also would like to send Mrs Spencer our best wishes as she prepares for her new arrival!

HEAD LICE INFORMATION SESSION FOR PARENTS
Just to remind parents that on Thursday 7 February at 2.30pm the School Nursing team will be holding a 30 minute informative session for parents on dealing with the issue of headlice. Please sign in at the office. Thank you.
REPORTING ILLNESS
ie high temperature / been sick / has diarrhoea / bad cold etc, rather than just saying ‘unwell’.
If you do not state any reason for the absence the office will have to ring you back to establish the reason. Thank you.
SainsburYs vouchers
We will again be collecting vouchers from Sainsburys, which we can use to exchange for PE or cooking equipment at school.
The collection box will be outside the office from 30 Jan – 22 May. Thank you.
WAITING FOR CHRISTMAS SUCCESS
We are delighted to tell you that Waiting For Christmas has raised over £49,000 to go to a school in Malawi via the Tear Fund. Thank you to everyone who took part, bought tickets for the performances or purchased the CD / DVD.
SERVICE PERSONNEL
We have been advised by SCC that we should record on our pupil database those children who have one or both parents who are Service Personnel. If you or your partner are a member of Her Majestys Armed Forces please can you let the office know. Thank you.
CHICKS IN SCHOOL
The Living Egg Company have provided the school today with all we need to successful hatch some chicks in the classrooms. The children will get many opportunities between now and 15 February to check, watch and handle the chicks. Currently there is an internal webcam on the chicks so they can be viewed from any classroom, but keep an eye on the school website as we may be able to make it accessible outside the school.
