What a fantastic week! Glorious sunshine and field play.
Please check your child's book bag for the Governor's report from the parent
survey done in February and March. We had quite a low return which I am sure
reflects the parent survey that was carried by OFSTED in March, unfortunately
the results from their survey are not shared with school. The report outlines the
steps that school is taking to address concerns, but as always please do not
hesitate to contact me if there are issues that you feel continue to need
resolving. Our School Council will also soon be carrying out surveys with their
classes.
Our Governing Body meeting set the new financial year school budget this week
as well as considering the results of their staff and parent surveys.
Mrs Pritchard, one of our long time serving and brilliant teaching assistants has
decided to leave at the end of June, I am however delighted to be able to tell our
Year Two parents that she will continue to volunteer with us so it is not goodbye.
I would like to thank Mrs Pritchard for all of her hard work, love and care of our
children both as a teaching assistant and formerly as our lunchtime supervisor.
In regards to the training day arranged for Monday 26th June, unfortunately we
are still waiting to hear if we can rearrange the scheduled training. As soon as we
have confirmation we will let you know by text or letter.
Have a great weekend - hoping to get the BBQ out at the Patel house.

Summer Fayre’s
NON UNIFORM DAY - Friday 19th May
The Summer Fayre is fast approaching and we are again
organising a Non Uniform Day to help prepare for the event!
All we ask for not wearing uniform for a day is a contribution that
can be used as a Tombola prize at the Summer Fayre. We are
NOT asking for money but ask that children in Nursery - Year 4
bring a prize for the Chocolate Tombola and
Year 5– Year 6 bring anything for the Tombola Stall, it would
really help make our fayre a success!
We hope you will support us with this idea and we look forward
to seeing you at the Summer Fayre.
