Year 3 – polite request – please name your uniform/ kit.

Dear Parents and Carers of Year 3,

As you can imagine, there are moment when children’s clothing and belongings go awry, and is mixed up with other clothing from the class they are in.

Today, we have spent the best part of 1/2 hour sorting out whose white polo shirt was whose, because very few were labelled with names, following the swimming lesson. We are not allowed to be in the changing room to organise your child’s belongings, and they are advised to carefully fold their clothes and store them in their swimming bags. As you can imagine, this sometimes does not happen!

Please ensure ALL your child’s belonging and clothes are clearly name-labelled, as it is very easy to return items that are correctly labelled up.  Simply writing with a biro on their labels will suffice.

Thank you for your continued support,

Mr Butler & Mr Moody

Year 3 Chetwynd walk tomorrow

Dear Parents and Carers,

As you know, Year 3 will be visiting Chetwynd Deer Park tomorrow, within the school day.

Class 3M need to come to school dressed to go, wearing clothing that will keep them warm and dry, as they are going in the morning.  They should bring shoes to change into for INSIDE, for the afternoon session in school, as they will return for lunch.

Class 3B should come dressed to go, but with their boots / wellies / outdoor shoes in a bag, ready to change into, as they are going after lunch, in the afternoon.

E.G.: a pair of joggers or leggings, layers on top, warm jumper, hat if needed, raincoat, wellies if comfortable to walk in, or walking boots (if you have them) – they can wear trainers but it would be better if they wore something that will keep the water out, in case of rain / wet grass etc.

Hopefully, this clarifies any questions you may have.

Thank you for your continued support,

The Year 3 Team.

If you have not yet done so, please login to ParentPay and give your child permission to go on this trip, which is happening next Tuesday 15th October. If you do not give permission for them to do this, children will have to remain in school with the remaining Year 3 class. If you are not able to log in to ParentPay, please contact the school office on 01952 386600 or email njs.admin@taw.org.uk to discuss the issue.

Thank you for your continued support,

3M Art Shirts 10/10/24

Please could you send an old oversized (Dads, Mums, Grandads, Brothers) shirt into school tomorrow (Thurs 10/10) so the children can wear them as an Art shirt.

We are going to try and make some cave paintings, using a water based paint spray; so ideally I would like the children’s uniform covered as much as possible.

This shirt can then stay in their lockers and become their Art shirt for future activities.

Thanks

Mr M

3M Swimming Today (24/9)

Due to unforeseen circumstances swimming group 3, in 3M, were unable to swim today. They will however catch up their time, by having more time in the pool next week.

A swimmer in group 2 was unwell at the end of their session, which meant we had to clean the pool straight away and over lunchtime.

The pool was back up and running safely for the afternoon session for 3B.

Apologies

Mr M
