Pebble Wood Project – Saturday 25th February – 1.00pm until 4.00pm
This is open to all parents and friends and is a commemorative planting of trees and wild plants to create a woodland area in memory of Mrs Sara Illsley – a very much loved member of staff who sadly recently lost her battle with cancer. All ideas, suggestions and designs to take this project forward will be greatly appreciated. More details are given below:

Safeguarding
Mr Smith recently attended a Safeguarding training session and one important issue that parents need to be aware of is that Facebook requires everyone to be at least 13 years of age before they can create an account.
Swimming Goggles
We have eight pairs of unclaimed swimming goggles in school. Please come into school if you think any of these may belong to your child. They possibly belong to children in the Porth House Group who were swimming last term.
Drop Everything And Read (DEAR)
At Kehelland we work hard to develop a lifelong love of reading and sharing books. To help us in this endeavour we would like to invite parents, grandparents, aunties and uncles to a ‘Drop Everything and Read’ session on Tuesday 21st February at 2.30pm. Please choose a book and bring to school to share with the children and enjoy reading for pleasure.
Reading in Class 1
17 out of 29 children in Class 1 are reading five, six or even 7 times a week! This is absolutely wonderful news – keep up the good work!
