Harvest Festival
We had a lovely harvest festival celebration yesterday and it was lovely to have so many grandparents and other visitors with us.

Thank you for all your kind contributions.

School Teaspoons!
We have lost a substantial number of school teaspoons.  If your child is having a packed lunch and needs a teaspoon, please can you send them with one from home.

If you have any school teaspoons at home, please can you return them.

Sky Blue Theatre’s Dramawise
Sky Blue Theatre’s Dramawise has moved to Bar Hill School!  Classes are now held on Tuesdays from 5.00pm to 7.00pm in the studio.  These sessions are lots of fun as well as helping proficiency in English and Drama, increasing confidence and developing communication skills.  Dramawise allows children to let their imaginations fly as they learn about life and the arts through improvisation and teamwork with excellent results.

If your child would like a free trial session just bring them along or if you would like more information google www.skybluetheatre.com or call Frances on 01223-832288.

Walk to School Week
Next week is Walk to School Week and the theme this term is ‘Count Me In’. The number of children travelling to school has doubled in the past 20 years and now around 40% of school trips are made by car, nationally. Nearly half of all children do not do the recommended one hour of physical exercise every day.

Why not join in next week and leave the car at home.  Walking to school can easily contribute to your child’s daily exercise and save you money.  We will also be doing various activities in school to coincide with Walk To School 2009.

Yours sincerely

Lin Whyte
Headteacher
