WHOLE SCHOOL LETTER

CYCLE PROFICIENCY
Unfortunately, without further offers of help for the following dates, Cycle Proficiency children will not be able to go out on the road, which will restrict their training.
Please let us know if you can help on 2, 8, and/or 15 October. Thank you in advance.

CHESS CLUB
Mr Byer has kindly volunteered to come in and run a lunchtime Chess Club. It will run on Thursday lunchtimes in class PL/DD for Years 4, 5 and 6.

YELLOW MOON
The Friends have recently distributed the Christmas edition of the Yellow Moon Catalogue, which offers hundreds of great value products to keep children entertained and to help their development.
Orders should be made direct to Yellow Moon either by phone, post or internet. Please order quoting the Friends Source Code: SSI1061 to ensure that they receive the cash back.

This is a fundraising scheme for Marie Curie Cancer Care where children are given a bulb to plant and care for. We will be handing out the instruction letter, planting kits and fundraising envelopes shortly.

VOLUNTEER HELPERS
Thank you to all our volunteer helpers who have already registered with us this year. We do still have some vacancies and below is a list of where your help would be appreciated. Volunteer help is a very important part of school life and if you feel able to help at any time, not only with any of the sessions marked ‘Vacancy’ on the rota, we would be very pleased to hear from you.
To help in school you do need to complete a Volunteer Declaration form so we can apply for a ‘List 99 Check’. If you have not previously completed one, or wish to check if your name is already on the list, please contact the school office. If you have not seen ‘A Guide for Adults Helping in School’ they are available from the school office.
