Dear Parents and Carers
I cannot believe that next week is my last full week in school with the children. Time has flown since I decided to retire and I am enjoying spending time with the children. It was lovely to have the time to chat to so many parents at parents’ evening this week.
I am looking forward to watching the Year 2 and Year 6 plays.
Top Readers
Here are the top readers in each class for the week 24th to the 1st July. The more you read, the more you learn! Well done! Almost twenty of our children are going to Waterstones with staff on a visit to buy a books as they have read over a million words…some have read more than 2 million! We love celebrating the achievements of the children who work so hard to achieve this.

Library Books
As we approach the end of the school year, may we ask you to have a really good look for any overdue library books? Some books have not been returned for a very long time and it makes a huge difference to the children who are then unable to borrow them to read. Last year we lost over 600 books! If you absolutely cannot find them you may wish to provide a replacement copy, as several parents have done (Huge thanks to them!) or to give a donation of £5 to £10 towards the cost of replacing them. Many thanks to those children (and parents!) who make sure that their books are returned on time.
Dinner Money
Please can you make sure that you check any outstanding balances and make sure that any debt is cleared. Thank you.
Year Three (current year two)
Children should be coming home with a letter about a residential in November. Mrs Tucker has managed to sort out an absolute bargain, so thank you to her for her hard in sourcing this.
Transition
The children all met their new class teachers this week. The transition sessions all went smoothly and the children all seem happy about the upcoming changes.
