BOOK FAIR COMMISSION
Thank you to all of you who purchased books from the book fair, we have made £377 in commission, giving each teacher £29 worth of new books for the classes.
PARENT’S COMPUTER STATION
We have set up a computer on a free standing desk in the computer suite near the hall. This computer is for parents to come and use. There will be a timetable beside the computer on which parents can book a slot of either 30 or 60 minutes. The computer will have access to the Internet and be linked to a printer. There will be no charge for using the computer, we only ask that you pay for any printing that you do. The computer will be available from 8.30am until 4.00pm Mondays to Fridays in term time. Parents who wish to use this service should please ask at the office for a copy of the ‘Acceptable Use of ICT and Mobile Phones Policy’
TABLE TENNIS TABLE FOR SALEWe have a fold-up full size Table Tennis table that we are offering for sale to any family who may be interested for a donation to the school. Please speak to the office.
FRIENDS EASTER DISCO – Friday 27 March
Don’t forget to get your applications in as this event was a sell out at Christmas. Parent helpers will be needed for the Key Stage 2 Disco, so if you are able to volunteer please let the Friends know.
READING HELPERS
We could really do with more parent helpers to read in class NS (year 3 and 4). If you are able to offer help, please speak to Mrs Bell or Mrs Skevington to arrange a suitable time. The office can supply you with a volunteer form if you are not already checked on our list 99. Thank you.
HEAD LICE
Please may I remind parents to check their children’s hair regularly for head lice and eggs, and take appropriate action. As lice and eggs can be difficult to spot it helps to use an inexpensive head lice comb (available from the chemist). If evidence of lice is found we would ask that the child is kept at home until treatment has taken place.
