Maths
It is very important that your child attends school to sit them. It will be a tiring week and in order to
support the children it would be helpful if you could ensure that they get a good night’s sleep, have a
sustaining breakfast and arrive at school in good time so they are not anxious about being late. For
those who are a little nervous, they can bring a small teddy (or equivalent) for company during the
tests. Also, for SATs week, we will offer our Year 6s a cereal bar and juice when they arrive at
school. If you do not wish your child to have this option, please let the school office know.
BOOK FAIR
Our annual Book Fair will be returning to school on Thursday, 14 May! The Book
Fair will be open after school every day and you are welcome to come and browse
from the selection of books provided. Every child purchasing a book will be given a
raffle ticket and at the end of the Book Fair we will be choosing 5 tickets. The
winners will be given the opportunity to choose a book to the value of £5! We have been promised a
great selection of books again this year and hope you are able to come along.
If anyone is able to help with the Book Fair after school please see Mrs Foote in the school
office. Thank you!
KILVE COURT
Kilve Court is a Residential Education Centre situated at Kilve, near Bridgwater. They run a variety of
courses throughout the year for children of various ages. They are holding a Family Open Day on
Sunday, 5 July and have provided the school with copies of their Summer Holiday Courses for 2015.
If anyone would like a copy of the brochure there are limited copies available in the school office.
GOBLIN COOMBE
Just a reminder that we need completed Medical Forms for Goblin Coombe as soon as possible. If you
have lost or mislaid your form please do not hesitate to come and ask for another. These are available
from the school office. Payment, if not already made, should be made on line via ParentPay or by a
requested PayPoint letter. Thank you.
HERE COMES SUMMER??!! ……….
On THURSDAY, 21 MAY we are celebrating our English Summer with a special
pizza ‘grab bag’ lunch from our school kitchen and we will be eating outside on
our lovely new grass! The cost of the lunch is £2 and, for the week before until
Friday, 22 May, we are lowering the amount you need to put on ParentPay for
lunches to £2 so that children who do not normally have lunches can pay just
this amount rather than the normal £10. If you do not have access to the
internet you can bring the cash to the office but dinners must be paid for by THURSDAY, 21 MAY.
This of course only applies to the children who normally pay for dinners in Years 3 – 6. For the
children in infant classes (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2) there is no charge and children on Free
School Meals do not have to pay either.
NEPAL DISASTER
Thanks to everyone who took part in our non-uniform day and sent in donations for the Nepal Disaster
Fund. We haven’t counted the money yet but will do so as soon as possible and let you know how much
we raised.
Yours faithfully
C Wilson
