As you can see from above there are lots of wonderful things going on in school over the next few weeks that we want all children to take part in. As well as all these events the school curriculum still continues up until we finish. Unfortunately we have seen an increase in requests for leave for the upcoming weeks meaning children will miss out on the festivities as well as vital learning. Can we please remind all parents and carers that requests for leave will not be authorised and may result in a fine. It is expected that all children remain in school until 21st December when school finishes for the Christmas Break.
Tuesday 15th January – 9:15am
Attendance Workshop for parents and carers.
Yours sincerely
Miss M Michael
Headteacher
