Dear Parent / Carer

Thank you to the PTA for arranging the Hallowe’en Disco.  I’m sure all the children had a fantastic time!

I have heard today that Miss Jones is well on the road to recovery and will be returning to work on Monday 3^rd November.  To support Miss Jones on her return to work, I have arranged for Mrs Pugh to also be in class for 2 days each week in a supportive role.  I am sure that this will now settle the class more effectively and ensure that they continue with their learning. 

The work on the boundary wall will begin through half term.  Please note that this will still be continuing when the children return to school after the break.  The working areas will be closed off to the pupils.  Please take extra care during this time.

I have had some difficulty confirming dates with theatres and/or cinemas at the moment despite them making temporary arrangements for Christmas excursions for the children.  I have detailed below the provisional dates – please note that these are NOT confirmed at the moment and details will follow as soon as possible.

3^rd December                                      Festival of Christmas Music for Primary schools – details to follow

4^th December                                      Nursery and Reception to Visit Santa – details to follow

5^th December                                      Year 1 to Year 6 to the cinema – details to follow

10^th December                                    Dress rehearsal for Nursery and Reception – Year 1 and 2 to watch

11^th December                                    Nursery and Reception Christmas Concert

11^th December                                    6pm. Carols by Candlelight – Year 1 to Year 6 with the Brass band.  Mulled wine and mince pies will be available while everyone joins in with the Carols and fun!

16^th December                                    Year 2 and staff to visit Trallwn

19^th December                                    Last day of term before Christmas holiday.

Mrs Thorne’s photo challenge has produced some very interesting places to read!!  These have included sat in the fridge dressed in hat, scarf and gloves or reading upside down   just like Batman!  Thank you to all the children who took part.

Remember that Monday 3^rd November is an INSET day – and the school will be closed to the children

Enjoy a happy and safe half term break with the children!

Yours

Mrs J Loveridge - Headteacher
