Please can you let Emily know if your child would like to attend.  If they would prefer a packed lunch, Kevin will make that for them as well.  Just let Emily know.

Help
We would be delighted if anyone could come and help us with our Key Stage 2 lunchtime ICT club (one session per week).  One of our governors has successfully run a club for the past few years but is unable to continue until September.  It is a very enjoyable club to run and doesn’t require any preparation.

If you would like any further details, please contact me to discuss it.

Gardening Afternoon – Future Date For Your Diary
On Sunday afternoon, 1st March from 1.30pm to 3.30pm we will be having an afternoon to begin to get the school vegetable garden ready for spring planting.

If you could spare an hour or two to come and weed and dig over the plot, we would be most grateful of your help.

A letter will be going out nearer the time with more details and a return slip at the bottom so we can get an idea of numbers. 

Sports Opportunities
The following after school activities will be starting after half term at our local secondary school. It is a great opportunity for our children to begin to get to know children from other villages that they will be going to secondary school with.

• Year 3-6 Hockey Wednesdays 4:30-5:30
• Year 3-6 Netball Wednesday s 4:30-5:30

Thank you as always for your continuing help and support. I hope you and your family have an enjoyable half-term. I will see the children on Monday, 23rd February.

Yours sincerely
