My ears are still ringing from the all the music last night.
We had two Valentine’s Discos at the school for KS1 and KS2. All those that
attended enjoyed them enormously and I think I enjoyed them a little too much
myself because I am feeling a little tired today. I obviously cannot party like
I used to. I would like to thank all the members of the PTA and all my staff
who helped to make the discos such a success – without all their support such
events would not be possible. The next big event run by the PTA is the ‘Spring
Fayre. To be able to run this event takes a huge amount of volunteers so if you
would like it to go ahead please sign up on the volunteer sheets which are in
the school foyer. Last year’s fayre was
very popular and I know this year’s will be as well as long as there are enough
people to allow it to run. There are many activities set to take place such as
an Easter Egg Hunt and an Easter bonnet parade so sign up to make sure that
your child does not miss out on the fun.
I need to have a little moan about uniform. I am noticing
more and more children with items of uniform missing - especially ties. Can you please ensure that
your child is in their complete uniform
after half term. I do have children coming into school saying that they are not
in full uniform because they had PE the day before. This does baffle me as
children are meant to go home in their uniform and leave their PE kit at
school. Ensuring that they do not lose uniform is the very reason why we make
them change before they leave school. May I also remind you that the only
colour socks that can be worn in school are white, grey or navy and not some of
the multi coloured neon creations that I am seeing at the moment.
Our sporting calendar is in full swing and many of the older
children have been taking part in many football and netball matches. Obviously,
it is good to win but as a school we tend not to put too much emphasis on this
as we want the children to enjoy the experience and not to be put off if they
experience a loss. However, there is a pupil that I do think deserves a special
mention for an outstanding sporting performance this week. The girls football
teams had some football matches this week and Ellie in Year 5 scored 6 goals in
one game - that is a double hat trick.
If she were a premier league footballer the school could not afford to keep
her.
All that is left for me to do now is wish you all a lovely
half term holiday. I look forward to seeing you all again on Monday, February
19th.
