Happy Friday, everybody! We hope you all had a lovely time at Sports Day last Friday! It was so lovely seeing all the mums, dads, grandparents and other family members out together on the field for a picnic lunch and watching the children compete together!
It seems incredible that we are already at the end of the year - it has flown by! We have all absolutely loved working with all your children this year and it has been a privilege to watch them grow, learn and flourish as the year has progressed. We are all sure that they will continue to be just as fabulous as they move on to being Year 2's and 3's!
Don't forget that we are celebrating the end of the term with a picnic on the field with parents and carers at 12:00 on Tuesday 23rd July and all children can go home at 1:00pm.
UNICEF Shoeshare Appeal
We are once again holding a collection for Shoeshare so now is the time to start rummaging around in your cupboards for old shoes that don't fit or you no longer wear! Shoeshare is a collaboration between UNICEF and Clarks Shoes which works towards improving Children's Right around the world. More than 1.6 million pounds has been raised by Shoeshare to help ensure that children all around the world have access to quality education.
You can read more about the scheme here.
It's hard to believe that together we can make such a huge difference by the very simple act of sorting out our shoes but really we can. Shoes need to be in pairs and if possible held together with an elastic band. There will be a drop off point at the office or you can just send shoes in with your child at any point during the last week of term.
Thanks in advance for your continued support in helping our children to learn about sustainability, the wider world that we live in and how to care for others.
RRS: Every child has the right to an education and a clean and healthy environment.
Book Collection
All children have had their reading books collected in this week. We have let the children keep hold of their reading diaries as there are lots of useful logins inside these. Please bring these reading diaries back to school on the first day back.
The children's school work books will be coming home on Monday. We will be keeping some English and Maths books until October half term so please be aware of this if you find some books are missing.
HAVE A GREAT SUMMER HOLIDAY!!!
We will be available on ClassDojo up until lunchtime on Tuesday 23rd July and then again from Monday 2nd September.
Remember: children return to school on Tuesday 3rd September.
All that remains is for everyone here in Key Stage 1 to wish you an amazing summer holiday. We would also like to give our heartfelt thanks for all your support and kind words over the year - it means so much to all of us!
Much love
Mrs Yuille, Mr Jude & Miss Smith
