The Friends politely ask that you consider using this when doing any online shopping. www.TheGivingMachine.co.uk Thank you.

PARKING ON NEW ROAD – ATLAS FRAM REQUEST
Atlas Fram have written to ask that we please remind parents not to park on their premises in New Road, or to block access to their car park as the site is in use with vehicles continuously.
In addition, they are concerned that pupils from local schools are using their car-park as a cut through having no regard for driver blind-spots. For the safety of the children please can we ask that if any of your children do walk to school that you ensure they do not cut through this busy site. Thank you.

DISCLAIMER REGARDING CLUBS ADVERTISED THROUGH OUR LETTERS
The inclusion of details of extra-curricular, local and out-of-School activities (which are not run by us) in our letters in no way implies that they are supported or endorsed by Framlingham Sir Robert Hitcham’s CEVAP School, its Governors or any member of Staff. Parents are advised to make the appropriate enquiries regarding supervision, insurance and other matters.

Class DB Share Afternoon 'Goes Down' Well!

We had a huge turnout of parents and grandparents to our Share afternoon last week.

The theme was on Forces - looking at Gravity and Air Resistance in particular.

The children and adults made helicopters, parachutes and paper planes.

The helicopters and parachutes were tested (with a stopwatch) down the stairwell.

The paper planes (various shapes) were tested on the playground to see which ones flew the furthest or stayed in the air the longest.

School Banner in Bury Cathedral

Ben, Emily and Lucy  went to Bury St Edmunds cathedral for a special service for 200 years of Church Schools.  At the start we paraded the banner through the middle of the cathedral.  The bishop put the banner at the front of the cathedral. We went to the side of the cathedral and some people explained why we had this birthday. We watched some dancing which was very good. A reading was read by a nearby school. Here are some photos of the day.

School Football Team Win District Tournament

Yesterday afternoon saw the annual primary schools tournament held at Stradbroke High School.

There were 12 large schools teams divided into 2 groups.

Our B Team had a great time winning their group with 4 wins ( vs Wilby, Laxfield, St Aspal and Fressingfield ) from their 5 matches. Credit must go to captain Guy Blades for his outstanding leadership and most of the B team goals. Thanks also go to Mr James Cantrell for coaching and managing our B team. Several members of the team are in year 5 so will look to get into the A side next year.

Our A Team started well with a 4-0 win against St Aspal but followed this up with a poor performance v Mellis (losing 2-1). This was followed by a frustrating 0-0 v Debenham. Despite dominating possession Fram could not beat their keeper and had to settle for a 0-0 draw. This meant that 2 good wins were needed to get into the semi finals. The boys now started to really play well to beat St Botolphs 4-0 and Fressingfield 6-0 to finish runners up in their group.

This meant that the 2 Framlingham teams played each other in the semi. The other semi was between Debenham and Stonham.

Fram A ran out 3-0 winners to progress to the final v Debenham.

It proved to be a dramatic final. Fram had all the early chances with Oli Smith going close several times. Debenham then took the lead through their only shot at our goal. Oli scored a well deserved equaliser in the last minute. This took the game into extra time. Fram again created plenty of chances with the best one falling to Daniel Smith in the last few seconds. However, the excellent Debenham keeper kept the shot out.

We then had a penalty shoot out. Fram captain Jake went first and scored, followed by Oli and Daniel. Debenham also scored all 3 of their kicks. It was now 'sudden death'. Eddie Pocher volunteered to take the penalty and confidently tucked it into the corner. Now it was David Dyer's turn to be the hero. He saved the next Debenham kick to make Fram the champions.

New School Banner Finished

This lovely bannered is the product of a huge amount of team work.

KS2 children came up with ideas (drawings) and Mrs Dwyer put them together into one design.

A group of children then cut out all of the various parts of the design and a team of adults (Mrs Turner, Mrs Pascoe, Mrs Borg, Mrs Spencer and Mrs Reeve) did the sewing.

The 3 children pictured above will be carrying the banner in a special service in Bury Cathedral this Sunday.

Mills Win House Football Competition

These great action shots were taken by Mrs Haywood.

PERSONAL AND EMERGENCY DETAILS FOR PUPILS
1 week deadline - please return by Tuesday 11 October
It is essential that we maintain accurate up-to-date pupil data, especially for emergency contacts and medical details.
With this letter please find a copy of the latest pupil data we have for your child/ren.
Please check the details and write on any necessary amendments, sign the sheet at the bottom and then return it to the school office.
Emergency Contacts: It has been noted that some children have only 1 contact number – obviously if there is an emergency with your child and that number is unanswered it means we have no alternative contact. Wherever possible can you please provide more than 1 contact person / number.
Other Information: The system will only allow us to enter 1 selection for Travel Arrangements - if your child uses the school bus even if occasionally, please tick ‘School Bus’; otherwise tick the mode of transport that is used most frequently.
Keeping these details up to date at all times is very important and if any information should change during the year, please let us know.
Please return the signed data sheet to us no later than Tuesday 11 October.
Each pupil data sheet MUST have a parental signature at the bottom of the page.

CHRISTMAS SHOEBOX APPEAL
As in previous years we are again supporting Samaritan’s Purse.
Each shoe box should be filled with items as specified in the leaflet handed out today and should be clearly labelled. PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO CUSTOMS REGULATIONS there are items that cannot be included – please read the leaflet. Extra leaflets are available from the school office.
We cannot send the boxes if there is no £2.50 to cover the transport costs, so please only send in shoeboxes with the accompanying £2.50.
Please return the filled shoe boxes to school by FRIDAY 4 NOVEMBER so that we can arrange collection. THANK YOU.

SHINING AS LIGHTS IN THE WORLD CELEBRATION – Wednesday 5 October
The Deputy Diocesan Director of Education will be joining our school family for an act of Collective Worship to celebrate 200 years of Church of England Schools this Wednesday.

MORNING LINE UP & BAG DROP OFF
Please can we ask parents not to come into school after the 8.45am bell goes. If your child has not had time to take their bags in before lining up, please just give them their things to bring in as they line up. We are aiming to encourage independence and to also reduce the congestion in the corridors. Thank you.

NO FILM NIGHT THIS TERM
The Friends have sadly been unable to secure a suitable film for a Film Night this term, however they hope to sort one for early in the New Year.

HARVEST FESTIVAL DONATION THANKS
Thank you to everyone who brought in donations for the Harvest Festivals last week. The food items have been taken to West Villa Homeless Families Unit in Ipswich, in addition we received £200 from the collection which will go to the Soup Kitchen in Ipswich.
Thank you for your generosity.

NEW ROAD TRAFFIC CONGESTION
We are fearful of the safety of the children in the morning on New Road, we are finding again that parents are pulling up or parking on the double yellow lines, in the school drive or in front of the cycle shop. All this causes dangers for the families trying to cross the road and to get safely into school as it restricts visibility and causes other drivers to pull out to accelerate past. Please can we ask that you find a safe place to park in the morning that will not cause a danger.

CELEBRATION ASSEMBLIES – QUIET PLEASE!
I was disappointed that some parents were chatting during class CA assembly last Friday. We do expect the pupils to be quiet during assemblies and show respect to the class or teacher leading the assembly, it is difficult to enforce this if there is noise coming from families. The children work very hard to prepare themselves for their class celebration assemblies and we would ask that if you have come along to see your child present, that you do remain quiet and not cause a distraction. Please can we also remind you that if you have to bring younger siblings to the assembly we would ask that you take them out of the hall if they start to cause a disturbance. Thank you for your co-operation in this.

STALLHOLDERS REQUIRED: FRIENDS
CHRISTMAS CRAFT MARKET
