Swimming and Hometime arrangements / permissions slips

Dear Parents and Carers,

Today Year 6 children should have brought home a letter reply slip with information about what permissions you would like to give for photos, visits, first aid, plus what their arrangements are for home time (pick up, Hi-Five afterschool club, walk home). Please return these ASAP, so we know your preferences. This is particularly important for hometime arrangements.

Also, several children and parents have asked about earrings and swimming. The current advice is not to wear them in the pool if possible. If this is unavoidable, a swimming cap that pulls down over the earrings to keep them securely in ears is preferred. Please provide your child with one, if needed.

Thank you for your continued support,

The Year 6 Team

Year 6 SAT Results

Year 6 children will be coming home with an envelope addressed to their parents containing their SAT results.

You will of course be aware the delay is due to the Department for Education only releasing the results to schools yesterday.

Well done to all of our children for their hard work.
