POLITE REMINDER

Attendance is still a big problem within School. It is important for every child to attend school every day on time. If your child is unwell and cannot attend school, please notify the School Office before 9.00am on the first day of sickness. Failure to inform School of an absence, may result in a visit to your home by the Education Welfare Officer. If your child has a medical appointment, please bring a copy of the appointment letter in to the School Office. May I remind you that School starts promptly at 8.50am.

HOLIDAYS

We are unable to authorise holidays during School term time, unless there are exceptional circumstances. Any requests for holidays should be discussed with Mrs Chambers in the first instance, before taking your child out of School. Please contact the School office for a convenient appointment.
