Dear Parents/Carers
This has been a long and busy term and we have been very pleased with how
well all of the children have settled back into school life. The children have
worked hard and, despite illness, have managed to keep their energy levels
going right up to the end! Most children have arrived in appropriate uniform,
ready to learn and we thank you for your ongoing support with this. If you are
buying new shoes or clothing during the half term please make sure it complies
with our uniform policy and remember it is black shoes NOT boots or trainers.
Thank you.
This week we were very proud of a number of our pupils: Mr Christenson’s
Class led an excellent Class Worship on Thursday, Mrs Doyle’s Class were
fabulous on their trip to the Big Draw at the church in Dover Street, and our
two representatives at the IW Anti-Bullying Conference were stars! Well done
to all of the children.
Today all children in Years 1 to 6 will bring home their summary report for the
first half of the term and we look forward to discussing your children’s
progress with you after the holiday.
We wish you all a very happy half term break and look forward to seeing you all
again on Monday 3rd November.
Best wishes
Laura Bosworth

NEW FOAK!
If you are interested in being part of the parent and friends’
group who organise fundraising activities, we will be re-launching
Friends of Oakfield, (FOAK), next half term. Many parents had
given several years of service and ’retired’ from the group last
year so we are looking for a whole new group of enthusiastic
supporters! If you are interested in joining us please e-mail
[email protected] giving your name and preferred
contact details. It would also be helpful if you could indicate
what days and times would suit you best for any meetings.
If you do not have access to e-mail then please let the
school office know. Thank you.

THE BIG DRAW
What we learned about at The Big Draw was the whole
world can take part in it and anyone can have the skills
to draw.
The theme was underground and we had to brainstorm
ideas of what we thought was underground and we
picked three of our favourites and sketched them
onto A4 paper.
We were all underneath the church and it was dark
and there were cracks in the bricks. The people had
put yellow fairy lights over the arches and walls they
were our only source of light.

This group meets to look at school policies, procedures and organisation and has been very important in ensuring
there is a parental voice in decision making in the school.
The group meets once or twice a half term and timings of the meeting are agreed with the group. Members
represent each class and we currently have vacancies for representatives from the following classes:
Mrs Rowe, Miss Howlett, Mr Hewison, Miss Gaskin and Mrs Doyle
