CYCLING PROFICIENCY HELP
Unfortunately we have not had enough offers of help from parents to help the children on the Year 5 Cycling Proficiency Course. If you are able to help on any of the dates (even if you don’t have a child on the course) please let the office know. 24 September; 2, 8, 15 October; 5, 12 November

CROWDED CORRIDORS
The School Council would like to ask you (the parents) on behalf of all the children to:
· Please keep prams and pushchairs outside unless an emergency.
· KS2 say goodbye in the playground.
· Only come in if you have a message for the teacher.
· Chat to your friends in the playground and not in the classroom or corridor.
· Say goodbye once, not again when the bell goes.
We would like to say thank you for doing this as it means we can all get to our lessons on time and start school straight away. Thank you.

FLORA COOKING WITH SCHOOLS CAMPAIGN
Just to remind you that we are registered with this campaign. Parents can enter their tokens (found in the lids of Flora tubs) on the website http://www.cookingwithschools.com/, these will accumulate and hopefully generate enough to enable us to swap them for resources for cooking. If anyone is unable to access a computer to register the tokens then they can bring them to the office. Thank you.

CHEQUES
Please could we ask that if you make any cheque payments (eg dinner money, book orders etc) that you write the name of your child and class on the back of the cheque.

MEND
This NHS Child Obesity Programme (Mind, Exercise, Nutrition, Do it) is looking for 7-11 year olds with parents/carers who would benefit from joining. If interested please ring Linda on 01473 770 007. Leaflets are available from the school Office.
