We are holding a quick drop-in asthma clinic on Friday, 1st May, 9:00 to 9:30 am in the Woodlands. We have a friendly NHS pharmacy team visiting to address any concerns you may have! Parents are warmly welcome to join us.

Morning families!

We’re super excited to share that our Opal Play project is a hit with the children during lunch times! To make it even better, we’re reaching out for your help!

This week, we’re on the lookout for any picnic blankets, sandbox play toys, buckets shovels & molds that you might have tucked away and no longer use. If you have any of these items, we’d love to give them a new home in our play sessions!

And guess what? We’ve got some fun snapshots of the kids enjoying their lunchtime on the last week of term!

Thank you so much for your ongoing support! You make our community awesome!

Good afternoon families,

Please join us in congratulating our Reception pride and value award winning pupils this week.

This week in our learning, we have had such a busy and exciting time!

We really enjoyed our Sow and Grow Day, where we planted seeds to help the bees , as well as growing our own vegetables and herbs. It was wonderful to get hands-on and learn about how we can care for our environment.

We have been building our confidence by learning how to balance and pedal on bikes — we are so proud of the progress everyone is making!

As part of our geography learning, we took a trip to the library, where we explored our local area and developed our understanding of the world around us .

We’ve also made the most of the lovely sunshine outdoors, enjoying time together while learning and playing .

In maths, we are focusing on counting beyond 10 and beginning to notice patterns within numbers, which is helping to build strong number skills.

A big thank you to all the parents who attended the library trip and to those who kindly brought in seeds for our Sow and Grow Day — your support makes such a difference!

Good afternoon families,

Please join us in congratulating our Reception pride and value award winning pupils this week.

The School Photography Company will be capturing individual photos of all the children on Thursday, 30th April.

As many parents requested, these snapshots will be ready just in time for Eid-ul-Adha, making for perfect gifts to share with loved ones.

If you prefer that your child/children do not have their photograph taken, please let the school office know by 27th April.

If you have got younger siblings who want to join in the fun bring them along for the family photo at 8 AM or after school at 3:15 PM.

Throughout the school day, all other children will have their individual photos taken as usual!

Many thanks

Dear Families,

We wanted to keep you in the loop about a little hiccup we've encountered with our emails from Arbor. It seems that they’ve been sneaking into your junk folders! This issue isn’t just happening here; it's a nationwide thing affecting many parents across the UK.

Arbor is a fantastic school system, but unfortunately, some emails have been mistakenly marked as junk by users, leading to Google and Microsoft tagging all Arbor emails the same way. This means some of our important messages may not be reaching you as they should.

But don’t worry! There's a quick fix! To ensure you start receiving our emails in your inbox again, simply find an email from Arbor, click on it, and mark it as “Not Junk” or move it to your inbox. This will help kickstart the process and get our communications back where they belong!

We truly value keeping you informed about events and celebrating our students' learning adventures. So, thank you for your understanding and support! If you have any questions, feel free to speak to our school office.

Dear families,

Our FS2 children will be visiting Darnall Library for a fun-filled time of exploring books and listening to captivating stories! Here are the details for each class visit:

- **Monday 20th April** – 10.30am – FS2 Garnet and ½ FS2 Topaz

- **Tuesday 21st April** – 2pm - FS2 Opal and ½ FS2 Topaz

Lunch will be as usual in school. Please ensure your child wears their full school uniform, sensible shoes, and brings a waterproof coat in case of rain.

If your child has a library card, kindly send it to school with them to give to their class teacher as they’ll have a chance to borrow books

We also need parent volunteers! If you’d like to help, please talk to your child's teacher. You would look after a small group of children.

Thank you for your support!
