Knowledge begins with respect for God (Proverbs 1:7)
This half-term’s value is ‘Compassion’ (Colossians 3:12)
Snow White Production
Mrs Martin has arranged for a travelling theatre company to visit the school this week to perform ‘Snow White’ for the whole school. This will be taking place this Wednesday morning. We like to give the children opportunities to enjoy live performances and I’m sure that they will all enjoy this version of a classic traditional tale.
Healthy Packed Lunches
We have noticed that some children’s packed lunches are quite sugary and fat-heavy with lots of chocolate and crisps. It would be great if packed lunches could contain a sandwich, wrap or pasta, along with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables. These foods will help your children to maintain concentration in the afternoons and are healthy for their teeth.
On our school website there is a leaflet giving parents advice on what types of food to include in packed lunches. This leaflet is available under the blue ‘Parents’ tab.
Online Safety Session for Parents and Carers
Please find below the link to access the parent/carer session scheduled for next Wednesday (28th January 2026 – 9.30am – 10.15am).
Focus: Guide to online gaming - this will include latest trends and emerging threats and will focus on developing your understanding of online gaming, the associated risks and steps we can take to support our children.
