Covid - New Variant

Dear Families,
You may have seen on the news that there is a new variant of Covid in circulation.
If your child displays any symptoms of the illness please follow the guidelines, which is to try and stay at home and avoid contact with other people for three days.
It is vital that the welfare of our children and the wider school community is a priority.
I am sure you will support us in this.
Many thanks,
Mr Howe.

MacMillan Big Cake Sale
Following the success of last year’s cake sale to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support, we will be doing this again on Friday 29th September 2023. We will be selling cakes to the children throughout the day with every penny raised going to a great cause.
It would be wonderful if each child could donate a small pack of cakes or homemade cakes that the children could buy. Cakes will be 50p each and we would ask that children bring in a maximum of £2 to spend. The children will be able to eat a cake in school and then will be asked to take the rest of the cakes home with them so it doesn’t spoil their lunch. If all donations of cakes could be brought into school by Thursday 28th September at the latest please and of course, if they are homemade, it is fine to bring them into school that morning.
Hopefully, we will have enough cakes to be able to sell some at the end of the school day in the school hall to raise further funds. We really hope that you will be able to support us in raising money for this wonderful cause.
