A hugely busy week around school this week that has included trips out for various numerous classes, play rehearsals and sports day amongst other things, so please read on to find out…

The weather looks good for today so we are going ahead with Sports Day today (Weds 4th July)

The races for children in Years 1-6 will take place in the morning from 9:30 – 11:30. Children will then go back to class. They can be collected from their classrooms by parents at 12 for a picnic lunch on the field or in the Jungle.

The afternoon’s activities for Reception (Dolphins) to year 6 will start at 1:30. Children will be placed into house teams and will take part in a number of different activities. You are welcome to move around with your child’s team and support them in their activities. At the end of the activities the children will be grouped in their classes for us to announce the winning house. After the announcement Dolphins will return to class with their teachers and you can collect them from there. All other children can be collected from the field once you have told their teacher you are taking them. 

Please can children come to school wearing their PE kit. If possible they can wear a t-shirt in the colour of their house instead of their usual white PE shirt. They will also need sun hats, applied sun cream and a water bottle.

If you have a gazebo we could borrow, please bring it to school and named.

We hope that the day will run smoothly and to plan, but please be aware that we may need to make changes to the programme if circumstances dictate.

Thank you for your understanding over the last couple of days.
