SUMMER TERM 2015 Issue 3 - Monday 8 June 2015 Welcome back to the second half of the Summer Term! Let’s hope the weather is kind to us to allow us to make the most of the many activities and events we have planned. Last week Year 1 children began the ‘Biker Buddies’ scheme. Each Wednesday they will have the opportunity to learn how to ride a pedal bike. As well as residential visits and sports days, the children will be enjoying our ‘Creative Arts’ week starting on 29th June. This week promises to be jam packed with activities, some of which will have an invitation for families to come and visit. Please look out for further information coming home. Term Dates School closed for INSET on Friday 26th June. Children break up for the summer on Friday 17th July. Children return on Monday 7th September. You will find a full list of dates and events on the reverse of this newsletter. Please note the change of time for the KS2 sports day. Attendance What’s Coming Up….

School Meals Last week during Healthy Eating Week children enjoyed the super fruit desert option each day and Super Fruit Friday! We are pleased to announce that Matilda Wilson in Year 1 won the Wolverhampton healthy eating poster competition! Can we also remind parents that you may be eligible for Free School Meals. Even if you do not want your child to have a meal, by registering, the school can benefit from additional funding. Check your eligibility at: www.wolverhampton.gov.uk/freeschoolmeals Last week’s attendance figure was 96.3 % Forthcoming Residential Visits This week kicks off the season for residential visits as Year 6 are off to Edale! You can check the Blog on the school website for information and live updates. Year 4 will be going to Conwy week beginning 15th June and Year 2 will be at Kingswood the week beginning 6 July. I remind parents and carers to make the payments for these if you have not already done so - these visits would not be possible without contributions from families. Thank you! A number of parents recently have enquired as to the progress of our Academy programme. Matters are now moving forward! I will send an update about this in the next week or so. On a less happy note, could I please discourage any of our families from behaving in a threatening or aggressive way to each other and certainly our children in and around school. We will always try and sort problems out and adults are welcome to come back into school with any issues. Please avoid behaving in an antagonistic way to any of our/ your children. Thank you, Kevin Grayson.
