REMINDER - SHARE OUR WORK – WEDNESDAY 17 MARCH 3.15pm to 4.00pm
Parents are welcome into the classrooms at the end of the day where their children will show them their trays and discuss their work with you. The Nursery children will not be taking part in this.
Could we ask bus parents to please make it quite clear to their children if they are to travel home on the bus or not on this day. There will be NO Maypole or Holy Horrors on Wednesday.

IMPORTANT REMINDER - MATHEMATICS WORKSHOP – TUESDAY 30 MARCH
Please may we remind you that the form to attend the workshop should be returned by 26 March. Please note that the week following the workshop, Y1 to Y6 children will be sent home with two pieces of maths homework to be done with their parents. There will be no literacy homework that week.

LUNCH PAYMENTS
Please can we ask parents to make it clear which class your child is in and which days they would like lunch on the envelope when dinner money is sent in on Mondays. Payment envelopes are available from the office for £1 a pack. Thank you.

PURCHASING MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS
For those who wish to purchase musical instruments there are two ways that you can do it saving money:
· The school office can order an instrument for you, saving you 17.5% VAT.
· Alternatively the Sue Ryder shop in Framlingham stocks a wide range of instruments (incl violins, guitars, recorders, clarinets and flutes) at reasonable prices; all sales go to the charity’s funds. Contact Sue Bartholomew on 01728 723536 to arrange a time to see the full range.

FRIENDS BEETLE DRIVE / BINGO NIGHT
The Friends are pleased to let parents know that they raised over £330 at the Beetle Drive / Bingo Night. They would like to thank all those who attended for their support and hope they enjoyed the evening. A big thank you too, to those parents who kindly helped stack chairs and tables at the end.

KEY FOUND

A key, similar to a car key but with no identifiable logo, has been found in the corridor at school. Please ask at the school office if you think it may be yours.
