SORRY, BUT NO MORE CERTIFICATES PLEASE
Due to time constraints with assemblies until Christmas, we are afraid we will not be able to hand out any certificates other than the ‘Star of the Week’, until the New Year.

DISCLAIMER REGARDING CLUBS ADVERTISED THROUGH OUR LETTERS
The inclusion of details of extra-curricular, local and out-of-school activities (which are not run by us) in our letters in no way implies that they are supported/endorsed by Framlingham Sir Robert Hitcham’s CEVAP School, its Governors or any member of Staff.  Parents are advised to make the appropriate enquiries regarding supervision, insurance and other matters.  Any issues with the club should be taken up directly with the club provider, not the school office or class teacher.
