DEAR PARENTS/CARERS,
Thank you to all the parents who have supported us with this weeks Science week – it’s really been an inspirational week that the children have enjoyed hugely. They developed some great investigative work and have particulary enjoyed working with their peers in different year groups.
Year 2 have even been skyping NASA today!
Sadly the weather has meant we didn’t fully see the eclipse but many classes streamed the event live in the classroom whilst others went outside to witness the notable darkening of the sky!
If you get a chance please pop into the small assembly hall to see evidence of the childrens work across the school.
A huge thank you to Mark our Science Leader for masterminding such a great week of learning!

PUNCTUALITY
On Tuesday we did a real push on punctuality – handingout slips to parents whose children were late and finding out why children hadn’t turned up on time.
I am shocked to hear how a number of parents were incredibly rude to the staff who were carrying out the schools and local authority procedures to support families who are having difficulty getting their children to school on time. There are several things all parents need to bear in mind:
1. Being late hugely damages a childs learning and
unsettles them for the day.
2. Angrily challenging a staff member in front of the child makes the child even more uncomfortable and further affects their learning.
3. The school will not tolerate rudeness or abusive language to any staff member and if this happens again the school will protect its staff formally.
