NEWSLETTER FOR 16TH OCTOBER 2006

GENERAL INFORMATION

Tweak of the Week for week commencing Monday 16th October is ´Be supportive of others´. 

You should have all received a letter regarding the Parents evenings on 17th and 18th October. Please ensure that you have made an appointment. Thank you.

Could you please return all responses by the deadlines given in the letters you receive. Receiving late responses is making it difficult to organise events and we do not want to disappoint children.

Don’t forget the Autumn Fayre is tomorrow, 2pm – 4pm in the Don Building. Come along and see the Choir and Linedancing clubs and enjoy the games and activities to help raise money to buy new school books for each classroom.

It has been noted that some pupils are not dressed according to the school code of dress, particularly for PE. Shorts which are well below the knee are not appropriate for PE or swimming. Thank you.
