Due to the panto, the EY and KS1 Nativity dates have returned to the original dates of

• Monday 16th December 2pm
• Tuesday 17th December 2pm

Please can families check their Parent Pay account as we have a large number of families with mounting debt and some with historical payment debt. Some amount are only small, but is collectively large as a whole school total. Our school has grown considerably in the last few years, now having 190 children, so a little bit from a lots of people soon adds up! Any outstanding payments will be red, showing a negative balance.

Please support school by ensuring that debts are cleared and that balances remain healthy.

Thank you for your cooperation.

A reminder that dogs are not permitted on school site. Please respect the safety rules and refrain from bringing dogs onto the school site including our playground at drop off or pick up times.

This includes dogs in arms.

Thank you for your cooperation.

We have provisionally booked our Christmas Panto for Wednesday 18th December.

Details:

• Goldilocks and the Three Bears
• Oakengates Theatre – currently operating in Telford International Centre due to refurbishment at Oakengates.
• 1.30pm performance with an 4pm expected finish.
• Interval treat to be provided by school.

We are awaiting transport confirmation, once confirmed the information about this event will be on Parent Pay for parents to consent and pay for. This is a Christmas treat for our children, it is not an educational visit, therefore full payment is required for children to attend. We will ensure that this event is subsidised by school and our PTA. More information about costing to follow.

Our aim for panto’s is that we alternate between a visiting panto to school and an actual theatre visit every other year. Last year the panto came to us, so this we we plan to take the children to the theatre for the full experience.

Details to follow shortly.

Weekly house point totals are:

Owls = 192

Badgers = 174

Squirrels = 196

Foxes = 138

Well done to the Squirrels team.
