It’s that time of the term again when we are opening up the community lounge and inviting parents to come and meet those of us who work in schools and other services to support your children and you, their parents / carers.
At previous coffee mornings parents have been able to meet myself (the Parent Support Adviser) the Locality Manager (who can answer questions on the transfer to Swavsesey Village College), the Education Welfare Officer, the School Nurse, a representative from the Parent Partnership Service (to offer advice about Special Educational Needs), plus the head teacher and a variety of other people.
We hope that many of these professionals will be able to attend next week, and where they are not there we will be able to provide information on their behalf and signpost you to the appropriate services.
Even if you don’t need to talk to any of the people above, feel free to come along regardless and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit. There will also be toys available for younger children.
The event is taking place on Thursday 19th March from 9am in the community lounge.
I hope to see you there!

As a parent, time is often in short supply! This is why we have decided to make things as easy as possible for you to come along and meet the people who either work with your children, or who could give you information about the services that are available to you as parents.
This will take the form of half-termly coffee mornings. The people hoping to be there are: myself, the Parent Support Adviser; the School Nurse; a representative from the Parent Partnership Service (who offer advice to parents whose children have a special educational need); the locality manager, the Education Welfare Officer and hopefully one of the youth workers who works in the Bar Hill area. The head teacher will also be present to talk to you about any concerns or ideas that you have about school.
The first of these coffee mornings will take place next week on Wednesday 8th October from 9am. We will be in the community lounge, drinking coffee and eating biscuits and we would love it if you would like to join us to say hi, or just to help us finish the refreshments
Look forward to seeing you then
Rachel

The role of our parent support adviser is to support you as parents and your child by providing support, advice and information. She is able to help you with any worries you may have in relation to your child’s education, behaviour or attendance, and provide support on how best to deal with it.
Our adviser, Rachel Britton, will be holding informal surgeries in the community lounge
These were being held on Friday mornings but this will be changing to Thursday afternoons starting the 5th of June. Come along from 2.30pm to the end of the school day for light refreshments and a chat. Younger siblings are also welcome.

For the last term I have been running parent drop-ins every Friday morning in the community room and these have been an opportunity for parents to come and have a cup of coffee and to meet me and other parents. It has been a chance for people to ask questions if they have them, or simply to talk in a relaxed atmosphere to other parents.

Throughout the last half-term, parents have been stopping by for refreshments and the chance to chat after dropping their children off on a Friday morning.
The drop-ins have provided a chance for parents to talk to each other and also ask me any questions they may have. Parents can also have their say about any parents events that they would like to be run in the future or to discuss any concerns or ideas. If parents want to talk confidentially, this can also be arranged.

Would you like a chance to warm up after the cold walk to school to drop your children off? How about the chance to meet other parents, to have coffee and biscuits and to chat in a relaxed atmosphere?
Beginning on Friday 18th January we will be opening up the community room for parent drop-in sessions from 8.45 until 10am. Drinks and biscuits will be provided and you can feel free to stay for as little or as long as you like. Feel free as well to bring pre-school children if you have them.
