Blue-Bells Our Chicks class had a fabulous time walking to the woods to see the beautiful blue bells this week.
Many thanks to Emma Roomes, our parent helper who organized this wonderful walk.
Year 1 Butterflies Assembly
I am sure that everyone who attended the Butterflies’ assembly
this morning, will agree when I say that the children were
amazing, so confident and so knowledgeable about Africa. I am
so proud of you all.
THE CLASS WITH THE BEST ATTENDANCE THIS WEEK IS
Yr4 Foxes with 99.6% WELL DONE!
Jimbo will enjoy being in your classroom this week
WELCOME
I would like to welcome our new Business and Finance Manager
Charlotte McCarthy to the Scott Family, some of you may already
have met Charlotte I am sure that you will all make her feel part of
our school.
COATS
- Due to the changing weather please ensure that you
send a coat in with your child everyday, some children are still
coming into school without their coats or school jumpers.

TRANSITION DAY
It is that time of year when I am sure that some of
you might be wondering how we prepare the
children for their new classes in September.
Wednesday 1st July is our official ‘Transition Day’,
when the children will spend the morning with
their new teachers. The Chicks & Cygnets classes
will get to meet their new teachers on several
occasions to help with the transition. Our Year 4
children will spend the day at their prospective
middle schools.
Thought for the week…..
‘”Be the change you want to see in the
world.!”
