Dear Parents

Last week, the school was visited by Steve Manning.  In the morning he took Class 2 for story telling and drama based on the Vikings.  In the afternoon, he ‘became’ Isambard Kingdom Brunel.  We also completed our cluster visits to Hidden Valley, which the children thoroughly enjoyed.  Thankfully all trips were blessed with good weather.

Finally, please note that the school office will be unattended on Thursday 26th June, Friday 27th  June and Monday 30th June.

Well done on the “fones4school” campaign!  Collected over 60 phones between us – so that means the school will receive £75 for our efforts!  Hopefully will get the prizes out to the children before the end of term.

CYCLE CLUB:  WPC Chinn is able to offer children from years 3 & 4 a playground based session, which will teach basic balance, control and safety skills.  It is not designed to teach children how to ride on the road, but as a preliminary to Cyclewise.

 

The club will start on Tuesday 24th June from 3.30pm – 4.30pm and will continue until 8th July.  All children will need their own bikes, and helmets which can be brought to the school in the morning if needed. Registration forms are enclosed with the newsletter and should be returned to the school before the club begins.  Children will not be able to take part unless we have a signed form.
