Newsletter 2
Friday 16th September 2011 Dear Parents, The children have had a busy week this week. Year 5 and 6 enjoyed a sunny day out yesterday, when the researched the River Yar for their project, whilst the rest of the school visited Father Gerard for Mass. As always the childrens behaviour was excellent!

teacher outlining the topics that the classes will be covering during the Autumn Term and highlighting any trips and activities the children will be involved in. If you have any queries about the letter, please dont hesitate to contact the class teacher or see Mrs Rayner in the front office. I know it is very difficult in the mornings with increased traffic, but please remember that the entrance to the school drive should not be used for dropping off or picking up children. The lost property box is already growing!! Can you please make sure that all your childs clothing is marked as it makes it much easier for staff to find the correct owner. We do have a named cardigan that is missing, so could you please look out for it, if your child is wearing a different cardigan with a different name in it.
With thanks N. Bosworth

You should have received or soon be receiving a letter from your childs class

all the new an d returning pa rents who joined us for ou r meeting this morning. We re ceived a fantastic numbe r of beautiful logos and fund raising ideas for our m ini bus compe tition- the resu lts will be announced to the children on Friday 7th Oct ober. The fundraising idea s were so good we are hoping use several of to them instead of just the win ner/s as planned! with the approp riate skills offe r to do our end of year accounts? Thi s would save us having to use our fund s on an accoun tant. Would anyone be interested in taking over as secretary for FOSTA ? We like to ch ange the com mittee from time to tim e to keep new thoughts and ideas coming in and I have been in this role for th e previous two years. Zoe Chandler, Sec retary. Could anyone HElP!
