Netball

Netball will be resuming on Thursdays after half term. This is open to years 3-6. Please turn up after school if you are interested. There will be a Netball  tournament and further details will follow.

 

School Car Park

The car park is for staff and authorised visitors only. We have noticed that some parents are pulling into the car park to drop their children off in the morning. This is not allowed as the car park is extremely busy at this time of day with children entering the school grounds, and also results in parking space not being available for staff members.

Children can be dropped off at Kids Club until 8.30am, after this time please park outside the school grounds.

The walking bus goes from strength to strength and we always welcome more children to alleviate traffic on School Lane. We leave from Booths at 8:30am. Also could we ask parents/grandparents who park on School Lane to be considerate of others and the residents. Incidents have been reported of cars blocking resident’s drives and also restricting other vehicles.

 

Jewellery

Jewellery should not be worn in school. Children can wear earrings, but these must be plain studs, gold or silver.

 

Thank You
