Kirkby Malzeard CE Primary School Kirkby Malzeard, Ripon Tel/Fax: 01765 658329 27th March 2015 Although the spring term has been quite a short term it is amazing how much we have managed to achieve. There have been lots of opportunities to share our learning with you. After the Easter break we would welcome parents & friends to our Celebration Assembly on a Friday at 3pm. Come along and join us when you can and help us to celebrate our achievements. MEDICATION IN SCHOOL We are currently updating staff training in First Aid & Medication. We have been advised that as a school we should only administer medicines prescribed by a doctor, with dosage labelled by the pharmacist. Please note that we cannot administer any medication which has not been prescribed for your child e.g. calpol, ibuprofen, cough medicine etc. We would appreciate your co-operation with this matter. Thank you. Farewell As the term ends we say goodbye to the Forsyth family who are moving to pastures new. A big thank you to mum for all your support with the ‘FRIENDS’. We hope Sam will enjoy his new school & wish you luck in your new home. Stars of the Week!
