Good Morning
 
This blog contains important update information
 
Site Visit
We are really pleased to be able to tell you that we have secured a site visit for parents and pupils tomorrow Wednesday 20th at 5:30pm. This will be a chance for us to show you the new school and for your children to be familiar with where they will be in September. Please can you ensure that for your visit you and your children are wearing steel toe-capped boots or wellington boots. We will not be required to wear any other protective equipment for this visit. I will send out a site plan of how to arrive safely at the site and where we will meet, later on today. As you can probably understand the builders are being generous in allowing us access before the site is complete and belongs to us, and we are very grateful to them and for their time in staying later for us. Please ensure you arrive in time to begin the tour at 5:30 as we only have time to conduct one tour of the building.
Please can you bring your registration and wrap around care forms (if required) on this date if you haven't given them to us already.

Uniform
We have had a number of enquiries about uniform, I am sorry if this is unclear. I have broken it down below by year group and hope this will clarify any confusion. Where possible we would want the children to have logo items but we understand that this is not always possible, so we are asking that each child has at least one logo polo shirt and logo jumper for day wear and one logo t-shirt for P.E. Please remember to name everything as then the investment you have made will last longer as items will not go missing.

Hot Dinners
Hopefully you will have received the dinner menu and allergens letters in last week's email. We will send those again for children who have recently joined us. We will be operating a daily choice for the children and will update you nearer the time on how this will work with payment for pupils in Y3 to Y6.

We hope as many of you as possible will be there next Tuesday and look forward to seeing you then!
