School Games day (tomorrow Monday 24th June)
This will be going ahead tomorrow due to good weather. Here is a reminder of information.
All children may come to school already dressed in their sports kit, wearing a plain t-shirt in their house colour - a coloured tabard will be made available, on the day, should children require one.
Please remember to apply sun cream to your child before school and send them in with a named sunhat and water bottle. As is usual in PE lessons, long hair should be tied back, with earrings removed, prior to coming to school.
KS2 will start arriving on the school field at 9.20am for a 9.30am start. If possible parents and carers should vacate the premises to support our safeguarding protocols, but if this isn't possible you may wait in the front playground after school starts, until a member of staff takes you round to the back field. The school gate will be shut at 9am as usual, and we will reopen it at 9.20am. The front gate will be shut again at 9.40am - after this time there may not be a member of staff in the office to open the gate should you arrive later.
The morning events should finish at approximately 11.45am. Scoring during the morning will be carried out by staff and SVC Sports Leaders.
Reception and KS1 will begin their afternoon at 1.15pm, finishing at approximately 3.10pm. The front gate will be opened just after 1.05pm to allow parents and carers to go through to the field. The front gate will be shut at 1.25pm - after this time there may not be a member of staff in the office to open the gate should you arrive late. Our current Year 6 Sports Leaders will help the teaching staff out with scoring during the afternoon.
Pre-school children, who are joining us in September, will take part in a running race (2.30pm ish), prior to Reception and KS1 races. Parents and Carers joining them will need to arrive at 2.25pm for entry to school.
Children will be moving around the 10 zones in their house teams, earning points towards their final house total. The children will then take part in their own individual sprinting races, whilst scores are added up! Races do not count towards final scores. Cup presentation will conclude each of the events.
Annual School Reports
Friday 5th will see the children's school reports ready to come home to you. Please make sure MCaS shows permission for these to be brought home by the children, which is part of our GDPR processes. If this permission is not 'ticked' in Bromcom then parents will be able to collect the report/s from the school office from Monday (8th) morning. If those with parental responsibility do not live in the same household, and you would like to request a second copy of a child's report, please ensure you let us know by email to the office. If you need this posted please provide us with the correct address in your email.
The report envelope this year will again include a paper copy of your child's personal data sheet. We are still finding that some information we hold is incorrect with updates not having been made through MCaS. Please can we ask if there are any corrections needed, you return the sheet to the office with this information annotated by the end of term.
Reception Request
Reception are looking for some donations of baby dolls to support their work on RSE this week. If you are willing to part with any pre-loved dolls, we would be grateful for any soft-bodied or hard bodied dolls to use in our learning. Please could we ask you to send them into school with your child tomorrow or as soon as possible.
