Gym Festival
Thank you to Mrs Coull and Mrs Grover for taking our team of year 2 children to Henry Cort School. The children really enjoyed competing with the other schools in our cluster and Fareham area.
The children all enjoyed coming to school dressed in red. Thank you all for your generous donations, we raised £418.54 for Red Nose Day. This is a fantastic contribution.
Easter Cake Sale
Thank you to all those parents that donated or bought cakes at the Easter cake sale, the PTA raised £117.30. Look out for more cake sales this summer- donations of cakes are gratefully received.
Scooters and bikes
Please remember not to ride bikes and scooters on the school grounds, or by the year 2 classrooms as they can cause problems. This will help keep everyone safe.
Walk to school week 15-19 May
Please try and find time to walk to school with your child at least once during the week. Or park your car some way from the school gates and walk the last part of the journey.
Footpath to Junior School
If you use the footpath between the Infants and the Junior school before or after school, please try to keep dogs on leads at this busy time of the day. Please be considerate to our local neighbours when parking for drop off and pick up. Thank you.
