5 Jan 2007 - Happy New Year!
Newsletter No. 15
Friday 5th January 2007
Dear Parents, Carers and Governors,
Welcome back
Happy New Year to all our families and friends! I hope 2007 will be as good as last year.
School Uniform
I was delighted to see so many pupils looking smart and ready for the new term. I would like to remind everyone how important it is that all the children have the correct school and PE uniform. The January sales are a great time to get a bargain, so here is a reminder of the agreed items for girls and boys:
Girls Boys
Red sweatcardie Red sweatshirt
Navy blue pinafore dress/skirt Grey Trousers
Grey or Black Trousers White shirt/top
White blouse Red tie (optional)
White socks or navy blue tights Grey socks
Dark Shoes Dark shoes
PE Uniform
Navy shorts
Red t-shirt
Black plimsolls with elastic gussets
Do ask for a uniform request form from the office so we help you with items that have the school logo - thank you.
Phone numbers/Contact details
If you or any of your emergency contacts for school have changed your number recently, can you please make sure we have the new number? Should we ever need to be in touch for an emergency, it would be dreadful not to be able to make contact immediately.
Yr 2 Parent Meeting at the Junior School
We have sent home a letter today from Mrs Montie, Headteacher at the Junior School, to all our Year Two Parents inviting you to a meeting at the Junior School on Monday 15th January at 7.00pm. This is an excellent opportunity for you to look around the school and ask any questions you may have.
If any parents from other classes would be interested in visiting the juniors, do call the school and make an appointment to look around - 934 1338.
