Macmillan Coffee Morning is taking place on Wednesday from
9.00am in the Community Room. The aim of Macmillan Coffee
Mornings is to raise some money to make sure no one faces cancer
alone. Macmillan provide medical, emotional, practical and financial
support, as well as campaigning for better cancer care. And because cancer affects more than just those facing it, they are
friends and family too. We will also be having a raffle on the
morning. Please come along for a cup of coffee /tea and support a
worthy cause..
Attendance/Punctuality –Please ensure that your child comes to
school every day and arrives at school before 9.00am. Your child’s
education is so important for his/her future and 100% attendance
is an important step towards reaching his/her full potential.

In J1 we are moving on to writing instructions so brace yourself as the children might
want to make a cup of tea or a sandwich to practice for their writing ! In maths we are
moving on to written methods and problem solving involving addition. We are also starting
philosophy which encourages children to ask questions and think about their own opinions and
how they view issues. It would be great if you could encourage your child to talk about what
is happening locally and on the news.
