Newsletter to Parents – Friday,24thNovember, 2017
Dear Parent(s) and Carer(s),
Christmas Postie Service
From 1st December, our school Council will be offering a Christmas postal service within school whereby they will be collecting, franking, sorting and delivering Christmas cards between classes. We are asking children to design Christmas stamps. The winning entries will then be on sale, from the beginning of December, for 1 pence each. All proceeds will go to the school council’s projects over the course of the year and charities the school council choose to support. If you need a replacement stamp template to enter our competition, please feel free to ask at the school office.
Changes for Extra Curriculum Clubs – From January 2018
From January 2018 we will open up the extracurriculum activity clubs to all children in Years 1 to 6 (these include tennis, zumba, gymnastics, street dance, footballand arts and craft clubs).
As we move towards being a cashless school, we will operate a new system that will meanthat you will have to book a place on-line using our ‘Sims Agora’ online payment system. This will operate on a first come, first served basis and you will have to pay with yourdebit/credit card at the time of booking to reserve a place. As before, places will be limitedand if you are not successful, your child’s name can still be put on a waiting list held at theschool office. Please note, payments are non-refundable.
