 Dear Parents/Carers,

End of term church service 1.45 p.m. on Thursday 1^st April,  parents are welcome to take their children home straight after.

Thank you to everyone for making such a big effort to get everyone here by 8.55 – it is certainly leading to a more prompt start to the day.

Miss Brooks, Mrs Jones and I are in Crete for the second meeting of the Comenius schools. Class 2 have been busy drawing their gardens and finding local recipes - thank you everyone who sent one in. Each class has been busy cooking: Class 3 has been busy cooking bread, class 2 have made jam tarts and class 1 followed the adventures of the gingerbread man. Mel Hatcher (James and Jenny’s mum) came in to tell us all about jam and chutney making and we did some tasting. I hope you will all come and see our recipe book on parents’ evening.

Friday 19^th March is an inset day and the school is closed to all pupils.

The sales of ‘Arachnophobia’ raised £37.50 for the Haiti earthquake appeal – well done.

May I remind year 6 parents that all camp money must be paid by the end of next week.
